KMAG up 30% today. May signal big bounce off bottom. MXTR, WDC, HDD all seriously undervalued. Will The Street finally notice? Shortage in drives reported, shortage in chips too so bought INTC today as well.

Tom, there was a time perhaps 6 months ago when La Traguhs talked about a single platter drive that would look like a record player. Designed with a special spin motor that has no allowance for a 2 head design. It sounded interesting. Really simple production and parts. Maybe if the tech is low end, it would be more shock resistent. Why make it? Maybe you could make it for not much more than a floppy drive? Would anyone want it? Could serve a niche at a capacity of 4 gig or better. Regards, Mark
