    BILLERICA, Mass., March 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- GSI Group Inc.,
(Nasdaq: GSIG), a supplier of precision technology and semiconductor
systems, today announced that a new customer, Inotera, has ordered over $6
million of GSI's new model M555 green laser based wafer repair systems.
    Inotera, headquartered in Taiwan, is a leading manufacturer of DRAM
devices used in applications for desktop, notebook PCs, and servers. An
Inotera spokesperson commented: "This is a formative step in a longer term
relationship between Inotera and GSI. We believe GSI's wafer repair systems

will enable us to realize our goals for wafer repair processes for the next
generation of semiconductor devices."

both capacity expansion and a need to prepare for further shrinks in their
DRAM designs." Commenting further, Nino emphasized that, "This is a major
step forward for the use of green laser technology and we are very pleased
to have the opportunity to work with Inotera and further their efforts to
