RV,

Thanks for the write-up on the CC. Good job.

"Also positive, Ken expects fibre channel to play a big role in internet data storage -"

I thought that Ken's response to the internet question was very interesting. I believe that he stated that when Internet2 gets deployed then there will be a lot of opportunity for switched SANs deployment. In particular he mentioned video/multimedia(big files). Here's a fairly recent short article about the Internet2 and some of the players that are involved:

news.com

"Microsoft has the potential to deliver real-time and high-quality video, television, telephony, and multimedia applications to the project, Ron Johnson, vice president of communications at the University of Washington, said in a statement. "

"The Internet as we know it today is constantly pushed to its limits," Microsoft Research vice president Rich Rashid said in a statement. "Even though now we can participate in videoconferences or exchange audio and video clips with one another, the quality of the experience is not optimal or compelling enough to make it commonplace."

He added that by working with other I2 partners and researchers, Microsoft is "confident" that they can overcome current technical challenges to achieve this goal."

I have to wonder if Ancor is already involved in this project.
