    Wohlers' numbers for unit sales of fabbers in the lower-price domain through the end of
1997 are as follows:

    US made:
            Sanders, 280
            Genisys, 130
            Actua, 127
            Z, 8

    Japanese made:
            Denken SLP, 74
            Meiko, 19
            Ushio UniRapid, 7

    I read somewhere that the number for Z was 10 at the time of the SME show, which is not
encouraging. They should have sold more than two machines in the first quarter of 98.
