Hi Sankar,

according to my understanding you have made an error in your posting:
Maxtor I believe is owned by Hyundai, not Samsung. Can anyone confirm this???
A major threat is that Maxtor plan to open a DD factory in N.China in mid 98. This is going to give them a hell of a price advantage if they plan to ship to the US from there. Maybe they plan lowend drives for the local market, I don't know.
I know that Micropolis went under recently, but I was not aware that Samsung picked up the pieces. Confirmation anyone???
The only light that I see in this tunnel is that these upstarts (excluding Fujitsu) may not be able to afford the R&D to stay technically competitive for very long

Regards
Alan
