Circuit Board Manufacturing Capacity
Saturn's capacity doubled by the end of 2000 due to capital improvements. 2000 was the highest revenue year in Saturn’s history. With the industry downturn in 2001, much of this added capacity went unused through 2002. However, Saturn’s financial strength (the company is debt-free with no leases) has allowed it to overcome the downturn by adding even more equipment and processes to expand product offerings.

Famous quotes containing the words circuit, board and/or capacity:
“We are all hostages, and we are all terrorists. This circuit has replaced that other one of masters and slaves, the dominating and the dominated, the exploiters and the exploited.... It is worse than the one it replaces, but at least it liberates us from liberal nostalgia and the ruses of history.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“And they heaved a mighty breath, every soul on board but me,
As they saw her nose again pointing handsome out to sea;
But all that I could think of, in the darkness and the cold,
Was just that I was leaving home and my folks were growing old.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
“The idea was to prove at every foot of the way up that you were one of the elected and anointed ones who had the right stuff and could move higher and higher and even—ultimately, God willing, one day—that you might be able to join that special few at the very top, that elite who had the capacity to bring tears to men’s eyes, the very Brotherhood of the Right Stuff itself.”
—Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
