   Local CM here, where I worked at one time, is doing $50 Million in
   business
   this year.  They have machines with more than one nozzle.
   I was with them early on, and did work in the bosses garage, designing
   Coal Mining equipment, for a winter after one of the buildings burned
   down
   if that make you feel better.  ;-)

     Seriously, I've run lots of rather mixed boards and the assemblers
     never
     had any beef with that.

   Ask the person on the line what you can do to improve your board from
   his/her perspective.   If you don't ask the people doing the work (not
   the front
   end customer service/sales people who aren't doing the work)
   you may never hear any complaints from anyone,
   because of the "Customer is always right" policy.
