Start with the news release SV-1000 increases two-stroke engines' power output from Sunnen Products Company, which we summarised at the time by saying "Sunnen has introduced the SV-1000 vertical CNC honing machine, which allows manufacturers of outdoor power equipment to improve the durability and power output of small two-stroke engines.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release NI develops controller for wireless testing from National Instruments: "National Instruments has introduced the NI PXIe-8108 high-performance embedded controller, which features an Intel Core 2 Duo T9400 processor.".
