Thread, went to the Seagate annual meeting in Aptos yesterday. Some items that came out of the Q&A: they are not interested in buying more of Sandisk. It appears they consider IBM a bigger threat than qntm and wdc - IBM is vertically integrated - the others are not. They are intent in boosting shareholder value - one direct way is to beef up their software division, which has grown 53% annually for the past couple of years - and possibly do an IPO in 1998. Asian currencey problems may benefit them by lowering their costs in Singapore. They also are trying to boost brand awareness. They have developed some TV commercials that they showed us...look for them in the coming year. Thats about it - short meeting 45 min - only 50 people or so.

Saegate is a good buy at these levels.
