Now we are getting somewhere.

Lets suppose the OEMs/resellers sell the product for twice what they paid. For sake of argument we will assume $1200/port cost to the OEM, $2400 for end user. Of the 1 Billion in projected switch sales in 1998, 1/3 of that value will original switch makers.

This yields 330M in actual switch maker sales. I will concede 10% Ancor share in Q1, but I believe (hope) they will achieve >30% share by the end of the year. For sake of argument I will guess Ancor gets an overall market of 20% for the year - 66M in sales and ramping fast.

FC is not supposed to peak any time soon either. :-)

I'm not counting my chicken of course. They might all get the flu...
