Re: Musings
They just dumped mobile 3.0in product, which is another IBM focus.
Sure don't need to buy more desktop mfg capacity.

There is a real need for a $75 2GB unit for sub-500 in big volume. I remember when you paid that for a bloody 1.44 floppy drive! Doesn't have to be a speed demon, as QNTM proved with BigFoot.

Another area might be cartridge drives. Could pick up Syquest cheap (market cap is only 200 million or so) and give Iomega a run for their money. That would give Motley a lot to write about.

I can't help but look for something that takes advantage of their relatively strong distribution and the unmet low end need.

Probably a good thang it ain't me directing that money. Having problems enough directing mine :o)

Buenas noches.....Tom
