Zeev.

1. Their only formidable competitor at this point in time (i.e. the only vendor whose switch is in serious evaluation at a major player) is Brocade Communications.

2. Ancor believes their share of the switch market will be over 300M in 2001. Don't argue with me on this point, I will just say 'hearsay'

3. Brocade Communications still has a market cap 4 times that of Ancor even though Ancor has landed two of the top five storage companies in the world. By the way I am not saying Brocade is over-valued....

4. One should start to believe Ancor management's claims that they will be disappointed if they don't win 1/3 - 1/2 of the switch buisness going forward.

5. If Ancor is really going to come out with a switch at the prices we are hearing about, who is going to buy a hub next year??? Who is going to buy a competing switch?

Food for cranial consumption.
