You bet!  For hair-thin wheels and intricate escapement 
profiles, they are the way to go.  Of course, wire EDM is a 
whole other domain, and you can't buy a $500 Chinese wire EDM 
machine like the desktop mills.  I wish we could get Robert 
Langlois to come down and show his stuff at the CNC Workshop.
I met him years ago at NAMES, and he was working on some 
incredible stuff even back then.
