In most industries, being a "preferred supplier" and having a leading market share allows a company to earn premium pricing. Not apparently, in low-middle end disk drives. My conclusion is that this is simply a very lousy, commodity-type category, and that Maxtor will never enjoy sustainable good margins. I'm getting out...with losses. Thank goodness for recovering healthcare services stocks.
