“Intel, Samsung and Motorola, they’re almost demanding that all their machines have our magnets in them, so the chances are that there’s not a chip out there that doesn’t go through one of our machines. It’s mind-boggling. And flat-panel TV screens; we were first in line to produce the machines that make them. They’re using our magnets exclusively. Same with iPhones, iPods…” Bill Buckley – Engineer/Entrepreneur.
