I'll repeated my original statement it in different words. Time is working against the established pure play storage companies, especially NTAP with is smaller installed base, that's what I meant about the "foot in the door" comment. Time is working against them as the computer companies and their suppliers work to strengthen their offering, which leads to storage becoming a commodity, where the most efficient manufactures wins. Of course you disagree with that commodity statement, which is the meat of the argument. I see time as the enemy now for NTAP. They could lose momentum since NTAP is being attacked on many fronts. B
