Sam - I think Luzco ruled out a purchase/acquisition of WDC. MXTR and HDD could be bought our for their mid range desktop "technology" or in the case of HDD they would also be acquiring DLT/SDLT. That would mean a throwaway of LTO, but I am getting real pessimistic about that as time goes on.

His discussion also might leave a opening for Fujitsu because of notebook hard drives.

Overall I think he really might have been leaving an acquisition strategy on the table for one of the independent component makers - RDRT; KMAG; Applied Magnetics. I would be interested in hearing from the more knowledgeable people on this thread about what might fit and the strong/weak candidates.
