IBM's VSS will support both NT and Unix, and work with IBM's own Fibre Channel hubs and switches and those from component vendors Brocade Communications Systems Inc. and Gadzoox Microsystems Inc.

Would IBM want to get ESCON bridge from one co., a hub from another, and a switch from yet another and integrate them all and put the IBM label on them? A vendor that has the whole line-up may have an advantage even if they don't have the best switch. Legacy issues
may be far more critical for them than other factors. Can ANCR make it if they don't win IBM? Just a little worried and waiting.
