<<Hello Mr. M. Marette what's your take on the latest OEM agreement? It really took us up to the sky, didn't it? I guess everybody saw this news already but it's always nice to have another OEM signed up. Sorry to any ANCR guys, but BRCD seems to win hands down>> I am sorry, Mr. Gorman, but if you search for 'OEM' in this fluff regarding Hitachi, I don't believe you will find it. I know I didn't. Is it possible that is because it is not an OEM deal? Why don't you call Greg at Brocade and let us know what he says.

<Sorry to any ANCR guys, but BRCD seems to win hands down. Well, the price tells it all.> Yup, you right! BRCD surely whipped ANCR again today. As anybody can see, a gain of nineteen points is much bigger than a gain of 5 measly points. Pity those folks over on the ANCR thread. After, all, they want the FC sector to do well, just as BRCD shareholders do, they just don't own the right stock. Think of them as poor cousins that can't perform arithmetic, such as +5 1/16 divided by 23 5/16 = 21.7% or +19 1/16 divided by 237 15/16 = 8.0% Is it true that BRCD has 110% of the fibre channel market? In case there's any doubt as to my position: Let us hope that ALL the boats in the FC pond continue to be lifted by this wonderful tide. I hope BRCD doubles. Best to you in the markets....
