Too many open questions

Not a problem. There will be answers. They will come in due course. The market adequately compensates speculators for assuming such risk.

What is the problem with transition to 80 GB product? Was there any hint that the transition was proving much more difficult or costly than RDRT anticipated? Any reason to believe that WDC can't pull it off with their bigger pocketbook?

analysts see NO earnings increase from '03 to '04.
