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)
“On board ship there are many sources of joy of which the land knows nothing. You may flirt and dance at sixty; and if you are awkward in the turn of a valse, you may put it down to the motion of the ship. You need wear no gloves, and may drink your soda-and-brandy without being ashamed of it.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
“Just as we are learning to value and conserve the air we breathe, the water we drink, the energy we use, we must learn to value and conserve our capacity for nurture. Otherwise, in the name of human potential we will slowly but surely erode the source of our humanity.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
