Douglas,

Thanks for sharing your G2. Very interesting.

RE: "The ANCR/INRANGE licensing agreement means ANCR gets a share of this
potential $20 million/quarter revenue stream."


What I don't get is how 200 switches per month at $100K per switch equates to $20 million per quarter. Shouldn't that be $60 million per quarter?

Craig

Douglas -At SSB Storage conference -Inrange CEO and KEN H were seated together on the same panel of 4 companies with both Inrange and Ancor pushing the Directors as the future.
HK Desai was also in attendence. I imagine HK and Inrange got at least a few minutes to get aquainted.
Regarding - just a reminder that the SUN presenter in a question about SAN switches specified Ancor as the only switch vendor and that they saw no reason nor did she expect any dual sourcing of switches. She did that SUN would work to qualify any switch vendor that wanted to sell their switches with SUN SAN solutions through VAR's or integrators. SUN working to keep open standards on JIRO.

IBM is seeking switches in the order of 180 - 200 switches per month, mainly for internal implementation, with some slated for outside sales

I recall reading that INRANGE would be offering their directors mostly to "end users" and Ancor would be selling them into the OEM market. Perhaps they both will be selling directors to IBM
