A proper sig-separator isn't all that hard to do. I'm sure it's not, but *what's the point of it* ? Graham

Actually Saab Automobil AB is owned by GM, not Saab AB. http://www.saabgroup.com/en/index.htm " Saab in brief Saab is one of the world�s leading high-technology companies, with its main operations in defence, aviation, space and civil security. Saab covers a broad spectrum of competencies and capabilities in systems integration. Saab develops, manufactures and delivers advanced products and services for the defence market, as well as for commercial markets where its expertise creates business opportunities. Thanks to its strengths and strategic partnerships, Saab has the world as its market, but research, development and production are carried out principally in Sweden. Total annual sales are SEK 19,314 million. Order bookings totaled SEK 17,512 million. Of order bookings, 63 percent came from customers outside Sweden. The order backlog amounts to SEK 42,198 million. Export markets account for 75 percent of the order backlog. Research and development corresponds to about 20 percent of turnover. " Saab Automobil is a small company by comparison. Similarly, Ford only owns Vovo cars, not the truck, aero and marine engine side. http://www.volvo.com/group/global/en-gb/Volvo+Group/ " Volvo Group is one of the world�s leading manufacturers of trucks, buses and construction equipment, drive systems for marine and industrial applications, aerospace components and services. The Group also provides complete solutions for financing and service. Our business areas are � Volvo Trucks, Mack, Renault Trucks, Volvo Buses, Volvo Construction Equipment, Volvo Penta, Volvo Aero and Volvo Financial Services. Several business units provide additional manufacturing development or logistical support. The largest business units are: Volvo Powertrain, Volvo 3P, Volvo IT, Volvo Logistics, Volvo Parts and Volvo Technology. Founded in 1927, Volvo today has approx 82,000 employees, production in 25 countries and operates on more than 185 markets. The Volvo Group's net sales 2005 amounted to approx EUR bn 23. " That's ~ $ 23 bn. What's Ford's turnover ? Graham
