Z,

Supposedly anything over about 30,000 tracks per inch requires microactuation, which Hutchinson has patented.

What do you know about these patents?

Is this a new technology that HTCH patented or is it an existing technology that HTCH patented for the use in disk drive suspensions?

Sounds great as a HTCH shareholder but I have to be a bit skeptical that they could lock this up with patents. I'd sure like to know more.
