Jock, thanks for the CC notes. I know it takes quite a while to get through them, and then you have to back up sometimes to capture some parts so you can make notes. I have been doing the Intel CC's and summarizing over to the Intel threads. I was going to do the same here (honest) but you beat me to the punch. Thanks again.
I liked best the part that Symbios is a vendor to workstations and servers, not PC's, like Adaptec (although Adaptec goes up beyond PC's also). I also liked the mention that the explosive growth happening in NT will now be shared by LSI, through Symbios. One of the posts (apologize to the originator) this week asked why LSI is buying Symbios what with all the misery over on the Adaptec thread. My answer to that is that, hopefully, Symbios is more like a young EMC, than an Adaptec. I hate to knock Adaptec, though, because of their great SCSI products and very long run of profitable quarters. For the record, EMC's run:
