To Fred Williams post Fred you actually bring up some very good points. Some that I would tend to agree with quite vociferously. Especially your points about the actual end results of the Key Labs piece. Education for the marketplace. If one company says that they build a widget that is the best, and another company builds one they say is the best and they commission a third party to test both widgets, at the MINIMUM, everyone who reads the report can see what ONE of the company means by "the best". It's all there in black and white. I heartily encourage Ancor to do the same. Publish it is detailed form, and then let the marktplace decide. I also think that as much punishment as someone like Brocade's CEO Greg Reyes gets on (the Yahoo board is of course worse) the Ancor focused stock chat boards, they should be silently praising him to the rooftops. It was his IPO roadshow that began the process that has now obviously led Wallstreet to embrace FC and the next "hot Internet" like space. Perhaps Wallstreet would have done it anyway, but we know certainly it was not Ancor who started the ball rolling.. And now they are SIGNIFICANT beneficiaries. Oh well.. I hope you don't go too far to the sidelines. Your points are well made, and extremely sound. Jump back in when you feel the need..
