     Are there any lasers available which will actually cut things?
The ones I see for sale in catalogs (like Edmund Scientific) seem only
to be for demonstration purposes. Is it possible to obtain a laser
that will cut metal, or are they only industrial ones that weigh tons
and cost millions? If anyone has any info on this (company names,
etc.) please reply to mlevin@husc8.harvard.edu.
