The marklet will pick you up, just like Coca Cola, or do you think people will stop drinking coke, will corporations stop making and storing data? NTAP will recover before EMC, thats why I am buying NTAP now. Later I will buy EMC. I am mercenary on these things, however, I do want to see the convergence of NAS and SAN storage under the open source convergence schema of OSN standards, and even there NTAP has an advantage over EMC and the others, unless they change their market focus, and hardware and software services in a hurry. Storage is in is infancy, we have a lot of the past to store and much more "STUFF" to store in the future. I am, Truly your$, -Crystal Ball |
