Hey Z,

<< he'll focus on stocks a little more reasononably priced than Network Appliance at 200 times earnings. -Z>>

On the surface it seems a little rich doesn't it but in my third read of the the Gilder "Storewidth" piece this little tidbit got me thinking about NTAP a little more seriously even at these levels...

"With a market cap of $7 billion, NetApp is hardly the undiscovered country, but the $250 million market of which it deservedly owns 42% today is estimated by just those sort of analysts who always underestimate the growth of the net to reach $5 billion in three years."

The math isn't even tough...if you believe the growth projections and believe they can hold share (don't even want to think about a share growth scenario) this is one interesting situation.
