Greg, I can't imagine storage is slowing. But I also can't imagine we won't get a rate cut if NAZ goes to 2800 and other indicators are slowing. Did you see this? "The storage market is booming as companies require more capacity for their data. An InformationWeek Research survey found: - EMC has the highest customer-satisfaction scores across key buying criteria. Compaq, Dell, and IBM are close behind. - Almost half of the respondents spend more than $200,000 annually on storage and more than 20% spend more than $1 million annually. Of large companies, 41% spend $1 million annually. - More than half of those surveyed estimate storage capacity growing at an annual rate of 25% to 50%; 5% estimate it will grow at more than 100% annually. - The driving need behind storage demand is an increase in customer data and increasingly critical data on the network. The biggest storage challenges are costs, administration, and lack of expertise." corp.powerize.com
