Start loading up on INPH, a direct competitor of JNIC. It's seriously undervalued. Short-termed target 45; float is only 2.4M

BRIEF: Interphase Corporation and its subsidiaries engage
in the design, development, manufacturing, marketing and
support of network & mass storage products based on advanced
technologies for computer systems. For the 6 months ended
6/99, revenues increased 4% to $35.2M. Net income fell 23%
to $944K. Revenues reflect increased Fibre Channel and ATM
product revenues.
Net income was offset by a decreased
gross margin due to a shift in the product sales mix.

The only drawback is that INPH is not a pure SAN and Fibre Channel play, although the company has been increasing its focus on SAN and Fibre Channel product lines. The float is only 2.4M, about half of that of JNIC, and that makes the company even more attractive.
