Mark,
<<Sunday morning's Seattle Times quoted a Dataquest forecast of 28M set top boxes in 2000. This is still not large in a total market of 168M drives but it is a very fast growing sector.>>

That number surprised me.I had not thought it so large and wonder if the article mentions if all of these are expected to have a disk drive. Numbers I had seen before were less then half that for 2000. I am with you. The quicker new markets emerge, and the DD makers can spread dependence on other then the Dells of this world, the better.
Best,
Stitch
