>>I don't agree on selling into earnings, both from a fundamental and technical viewpoint. If you're studying the fundies or the technicals and that's the basis for buying the stock, the report should confirm your viewpoint.<< Have you looked at that in the form of Risk / Reward ??

McDATA Showcases New Products and Capabilities at SNW Thursday March 30, 2:45 pm ET Demos Business Benefits of New 4 Gb/s Technology and Remote Data Replication Capabilities BROOMFIELD, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 30, 2006--McDATA Corporation (Nasdaq:MCDTA - News; Nasdaq:MCDT - News) will demonstrate the business advantages of its industry leading technologies during Storage Networking World (booth G7) April 3 - 7, 2006, in San Diego, including its complete solution for The ROC (remote office consolidation) and McDATA's soon-to-be-released 4 Gb/s QPM director-class blade, which doubles the amount of data that can flow through the network. ADVERTISEMENT McDATA's 4 Gb/s director blade enables customers to backup their existing data sets in nearly half the time previously required with 2 Gb/s technology. Unlike other 4 Gb/s director class solutions, customers do not need to purchase a new director to deploy McDATA's 4 Gb/s technology. McDATA's 4 Gb/s blade can be introduced into any existing Intrepid® 6140 director without requiring the purchase of a dedicated or special revision code chassis. In addition to providing higher bandwidth between local directors, McDATA's 4 Gb/s director blade offers true investment protection for new and existing customers via seamless, interoperable scalability across McDATA's entire product portfolio. Customers can upgrade ports to 4 Gb/s throughput speeds in four-port increments to avoid disruptive, wide-scale forklifts. This fine grain increment also protects customers' budgets by proving greater flexibility to acquire only the number of port upgrades needed to match current business requirements for the increased bandwidth. Competitive offerings require a much higher capital outlay because they are only offered in16-port increments, increasing the overall initial capital cost of deploying 4 Gb/s. McDATA will also demonstrate data replication from Colorado Springs, Colo., to Tokyo, Japan, using McDATA Eclipse(TM) SAN Routers. This demonstration (booth TS16) is the first time data has been synchronized between two Fujitsu ETERNUS6000 storage arrays on separate continents. The solution architecture leverages the McDATA router's broad multi-protocol interoperability to take advantage of both Fibre Channel and IP protocol benefits. While at the conference, please make sure to attend the following sessions: 2:50 p.m. PDT, Monday, April 3 - Larry Hofer, a security architect for McDATA, will present: "Security III - Fibre Channel Security: FC-SP Is Big News" 4:55 p.m. PDT, Wednesday, April 5 - Costa Hasapopoulos, worldwide vice president of McDATA Solutions and Services, will present: "The ROC (Remote Office Consolidation)" McDATA will participate in several demonstrations during the conference, including: The ROC (Remote Office Consolidation): Using SpectraNet(TM) WDS Accelerator, McDATA Bandwidth Services, Eclipse/UltraNet(TM) Extension products, Intrepid® and Sphereon(TM) SAN Switching, SpectraNet(TM) Replicator for Exchange and McDATA Support and Professional Services (booth TS17) SAN Management Tools: Get the most out of your storage network with Enterprise Fabric Connectivity Manager 9.0 (booth TS17) Data Mirroring Over Distance: McDATA/Fujitsu (booth TS16) demonstration uses McDATA Eclipse SAN Routers to facilitate the first instance of intercontinental mirroring of data on Fujitsu storage arrays Tiered Storage: FCIA (booth G10) demonstration shows data movement between different tiers of storage in a typical information lifecycle management scenario All demonstrations at SNW highlight McDATA's commitment to providing products, services and solutions that increase data mobility across the global enterprise so that customers can consolidate and optimize their data environments and protect their essential information.

Sergio .. Please Accept My Public and Humble Apology. We see things differently and it's not about who's wrong or right when it boils right down to it. I'll be happy to let it go. I don't like to butt heads .. but I've been known to have that quality especially when I feel I was correct. As you are well aware .. SUNW Broke Out. SONS Tanked at Earnings. I think I was correct in both cases. But I guess I'm Wrong .. and You are Correct .. I'll take a Break .. It's Rutting Season & I need to sniff out some more bottoms anyway. I'll just post em as I find em and try to be much less vocal. bergoiata.org Since you asked me about this one ... I'm still not sure if this bottom is ready yet or not. [I know .. that's Baaaaaah'd] stockcharts.com Cheers !

Hey guys, gals, and especially old-timers from the 56 Annapolis retreat. Since that time I have been feeling deprived that I never had a White Castle hamburger. Well, two weeks ago, my family was in St. Louis shopping colleges and lo and behold there was a White Castle. When I finally sampled the fare, I had mixed feelings. My mind was telling me it was fantastic but my taste buds said Vin Ordinaire or below. I did like the Jalapeno cheeseburger and it's fun to buy a huge bag full of burgers for just a few bucks. While I can't claim to have had an epiphany, my life does feel more complete. Myron
