J.L: Would it be correct to assume that the long term trends point to the following:

a: Fibre Channel will be the predominant I/O for Servers and high speed devices. PCI will also be under threat.

b:Firewire will replace IDE/SCSI/UDMA based on best speed/unit cost. It will be used on all P.C's.

I understand Apple,Molex,Skiptone,Texas Inst are also into Firewire. It will be interesting if any one knows the market share of each.

Regarding Fibre Channel, is Digital in the lead re:Sales.

If this long term scenario is correct, how will ADPT and its recent acquisition fare.?
