In manufacturing, that *is* the definition of obsolete. At my last job, one of my responsibilities was dealing with part obsolescence; discrete semiconductors, crystals, oscillators, relays. The day manufacturing ceases on a part it's considered obsolete and I had to begin a search for a replacement. I don't miss that job :) -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
