Doug, I don't know who the suppliers are. Some may be disclosed in the 10-K. However, I do know that Ciena fabs a lot of stuff in-house. In any event, Ciena may will be first in line as a preferred customer for components. The smaller competitors will most likely be on allocation. Although shortages are annoying, they do signify a very healty sector. And that's not about to change in the current interest rate environment. Jack Hutchison
