     1] In our tests the material had 1/4 to 1/3 of the variation of the 
     standard two ply laminate it was targeted to replace.  
     
     2] It costs a little more than high Tg material. 
     
     3] As for the most important criteria, tight registration jobs on thin 
     cores.  
     
     4] If 80% is good enough you don't need to switch.  I would use it for 
     jobs requiring 4 core and below.  These are terribly unstable and CL 
     200+ does have an advantage here.
     
     5] Sorry can't help here.
     
     6] It is more suceptable to handling damage.  Because the glass is not 
     woven you can peel the laminate if you try.

        Good day, ladies and gentlemen,
     
        I will appreciate if the users of the above laminates could comment
on the followings:
        (1) The dimensional stability as compared to FR4. 
        (2) The price premium to FR4.
        (3) What would be the most important criteria to consider for
switching from FR4             to CL 200+ ?
        (4) It seems that if the yield is >80%, there is no reason to switch. 
        (5) What would be its classification under NEMA's nomenclature ?
        (6) What are the pitfalls to observe when switching from FR4 to CL
200+ ?
        (7) Last, but not the least, will the manufacturer of CL 200+ please
contact me             personally via email. Just a gentle reminder that you 
wouldn't run into             marketing your products in this forum.
     
        Thanking you in anticipation and have a great weekend.
