Exhibit 99.1

Aspect Systems Acquires Matrix System One and System Ten Legacy Product Lines
From Axcelis Technologies, Inc.

CHANDLER, AZ.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 10, 2003--Aspect Systems, Inc., a
wholly owned subsidiary of DND Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:DNDT.OB), today
announced that it has completed the acquisition of certain dry processing
technology licenses from Axcelis Technologies, Inc (NASDAQ: ACLS). Under the
exclusive agreement, Axcelis grants to Aspect Systems the right to manufacture,
use and sell all Matrix legacy product models marketed under the trade names
"System One" and "System Ten". Sales, service and parts support will fully
transfer to ASI as of December 1, 2003. The terms of the agreement were not
released.

"The synergistic addition of these Matrix legacy products to our already very
well established and accepted plasma etch line, allows ASI to expand the level
of support that we are able to offer both our existing customers and some new
customers that will now be coming on board", stated Dennis Key, newly appointed
president of Aspect Systems.

ASI, for the past thirteen years, has been focused on the core technology of
plasma etch, and has distinguished itself as a premier supplier of related after
market products. Since 1990, the company, founded by its current chairman Doug
Dixon, has been remanufacturing, innovating and selling Lam Research
AutoEtch(TM) systems, while providing parts and associated services in support
of the same. Earlier this year (Jan. 21 business wire), ASI announced the
acquisition of licenses from Lam, to assume full responsibility for all aspects
of global support for the entire installed base of both the Lam AutoEtch(TM) and
Drytek(TM) products, including the parts and service support thereof. This
license also allowed for the manufacture, use and sale of any new systems, which
might be required.

Axcelis acquired the "System One" and "System Ten" products earlier this year,
with the purchase of Matrix Integrated Systems, Inc., a dry strip equipment
supplier located in Richmond, CA.(Jul. 7 business wire). The acquisition
expanded, strengthened and diversified Axcelis' advanced equipment portfolio,
which is aimed at the rapidly emerging 300mm market, and the most advanced
technical challenges. "We are pleased by the decision made by Axcelis to
outplace the legacy portion of that acquisition to ASI, said Key, and together
we are striving to minimize the effects felt by our customers around the world,
and to insure that the transition from Richmond to Chandler is expeditious and
timely".

The installed base for the Matrix System 1 and System 10 products exceeds 800
systems worldwide, and will be supported by ASI sales and service centers which
are located in the US, Munich, Israel, Singapore, Taiwan, Korea and soon to be
in Japan.

About Aspect Systems

Aspects Systems is a well established equipment and engineering services
company, offering a broad suite of services to the semiconductor industry. ASI
has recently directed its attention to the growing market for equipment that has
been proven to serve the needs of discrete manufacturers who are building .5(mu)
and higher devices on 100mm to 200mm wafers, and as such do not require the more
advanced, and capital intensive, equipment to achieve their goals. It is ASI's
intention to continue adding relevant products and services, as they become
available to address the needs of this growing market.
