There's a limited number of those kinds of lots. (MacDonald Highlands is) right up there at the top as the premier expensive homes sites in Las Vegas.

Jim brings to the position many years of manufacturing experience and a hands-on approach to quality manufacturing and customer satisfaction. Our vertical approach to design and building world-class semiconductor equipment relies on quality design and efficient manufacturing. Over the years, Jim has proven his ability to lead our manufacturing organization to new levels of excellence.

We came back with 19.2 percent after doing 45 percent (in 2004). That's almost a miracle, too. I was saying there would be no crash, but prices would hit a plateau. This town just keeps blowing my socks off.

We calculated it three different ways so nobody can complain. We did it by average price, by median price and then average price per square foot. The reason for price per square foot is if someone goes into a ZIP code and builds 800 or 1,000 condominiums where they traditionally have 2,300-square-foot single-family homes, we didn't want that number to be skewed.

The thing that sets MacDonald Highlands apart is the topography. It's steeper there, so you can get true hillside homes.
