Hello nicegy767,

Re Willy is not a serious threat if it cannot be produced in meaningful quantities, and, as far as I can ascertain, meaningful production quantities of Willy are still very much pie in the sky...even assuming Willy does overcome the very significant production hurdle, which is certainly not a given, imho, there is no guarantee that Willy will be competitive (on an all-in price/performance basis including cost of memory) with Athy offerings by that time...Athy/Willy comparisons remind me of childhood advice offered me...A bird (Athy) in hand is worth (at least) two (Willys) in the bush...

Wasn't there another poster on this board that used the term foils for such "very much pie in the sky" products? Now who was that?

Kindest regards,
CrazyMan
