So Earl,

We all see that, how do you address this problem with the OEM? I ask that question subjectively...

You have to know that we've already done that, and we're being blamed for handling....hehehe.

This is the "Kobiashu Maru" scenario that I spoke of earlier. This is a no-win scenario. On Semiconductor will have all their legal staff (which is more substantial than most of us ever have) to support their position that their parts are okay...so we have to deal with it. We'll eat all the costs that we will incur from their sub-standard processes and won't be able to do anything about it...

As a note, comparible Fairchild MUX's work GREAT!!!

(that's been backed-up by test data...)
