Tech Data, Ingram Micro Execs: No Rebound Yet By Eric Hausman, CRN New York 1:51 PM EST Fri., May 04, 2001 Sorry if already posted. They claim to be upbeat, even if they don't seem to quite know why. Executives from the industry's two largest distributors said Friday they have yet to see any real improvement in the PC market and were unwilling to provide financial guidance beyond the current quarter. However, the distribution executives remained upbeat regarding the future of the distribution segment and predicted their focus on gross margins and cost-cutting will result in growth once the business market improves. "We haven't seen the rebound anticipated by Wall Street," said Steve Raymund, chairman and CEO of Tech Data, speaking to investors at the Merrill Lynch Hardware Technology Conference here. channelweb.com

Blow Hard Dan - "Corrective Action The STL2 and SBT2 server boards do not support the ability to do HSC firmware updates via downloads. Therefore, it is necessary to either obtain a replacement SC5000 SAF-TE card or a SR2050 HSBP with updated firmware, or to utilize a L440GX+ server board to perform the HSC firmware update to the SC5000 SAF-TE board or to the SR2050 HSBP. HSC update instructions are listed below. Hot Swap Back Planes and SAF-TE cards will be flashed with the latest Hot Swap Controller firmware." That is a solid solution - Intel had a problem, found it and fixed it. AMD's ALWAYS-DELAYED 760MP server chip set seems to have too many GLITCHES to even make it out of AMD's labs ! Paul
