Robert;
<<Spinning these stocks off as a fund would only accomplish isolating the drive business. Are we sure we want that?>>

I don't. And Paul is right, its odd to be talking about unlocking the value considering the rise in SEG's stock price. In fact, Z calls it a "lockstep" with Veritas (though I wouldn't because if it were we would have blown past my exit point some time ago.) The thing that I keep racking my brain about is the base DD business. Are we on the cusp of an incredible renaissance in storage where margins come creeping back? I see the announcement from Sony regarding a 25 GB DD in their playstation and I salivate. But is there any reason to believe that there will be better margins available in markets like this? I really wonder. Seagate's rise is counter sector. No doubt Z is right and there is some wind beneath their wings instead of plain old wing flapping power. How long will the wind blow? Anybody concerned about a Summer correction? I am leaning to pulling the sell trigger. I think we can get back on this bus at a later date if we desire.

Will be curious to know what you decide.

Best,
Stitch
