Here's a short blurb with a mention about SEG's SNDK holding. I particularly enjoyed the italicized part (obviously they mean ZOOX):

Seagate Technology (NYSE:SEG - news) , the leading disk drive maker, is one of Milleti?s favorite value picks. For one thing, Seagate owns 85 million shares of Veritas Software (NASDAQ:VRTS - news) , which amounts to a $12.8 billion investment, given Veritas? recent share price.

What?s more, Seagate owns five million shares of Gadzooks Inc. (NASDAQ:GADZ - news) , the mall-based specialty retailer of casual apparel, and five million shares of SanDisk Corp. (NASDAQ:SNDK - news) , a designer, manufacturer and marketer of flash memory data storage products, that together amount to $545 million in market cap. Seagate also has $6.70 per share in cash.

Adding up all the assets, and assuming a 30% discount on its Veritas holding for tax reasons, Miletti values Seagate?s stock above $60. Right now it trades closer to $40, so there?s a 50% upside potential.
