ASM has many molds that it doesn't use anymore. I don't know the real answer, I hope Jim can give some insight, he comes around every once in a while.
Basically some molds are more popular than othhers, or some molds just get stale from disuse. Like the old Bud Jones Dice mold, it was very popular for a long time, and ASM owns it, but we haven't seen it in use. Or the Nevada mold... same thing: it was not used for a long time and then it was resurected for the signature mold of a new chip retailer.
