Wow!

I assume, you intended to post that on Time-nuts?
But anyhow, I really wonder, what a memory semiconductor manufacturer
intends to do with Symmetricon.
Interesting, though, I try to understand that.

They want to elbow in on another lukrative captive market.

Their basic business model is to expand into markets with very

They have surprisingly few enthusiatic customers.
