<< ALREADY talked about Arcxel switch and say things like... >>

I NEVER said that the Arxcel switch wasn't mentioned. It's just that no one ever mentioned the fact that Hucom is selling the switch along side ANCR's.
Big deal IMO.

<< Haven't you read old posts from a great deal of people (who are still here and long, I believe) voicing their concerns/disgust with old management and the obvious botches that were made? >>

Of course I have. The problem is they seem to think that it's all in the past and everything is rosy again. I contend that ANCR is still suffering from the after-effects of previous management.
The stock price reflects it.

<< although you hardly do any research on Fibre Channel or Ancor, I think it would be obvious to you that the Fibre Channel market is just starting to grow rapidly NOW. >>

I mentioned in a prior post tonight that I see the market heating up. I don't dispute this. It's a shame that my options for investing in switch companies are limited to Ancorpse.

<< ...and keep reminding people here that you hardly know anything about Ancor while at the same time throwing around broad negative statements...well, its just fishy. >>

Would you rather I pretend that I know gobbs about ANCR and then make the same statements? (I'm sure I could fake it) I think I am being more fair by telling people up front that I don't do loads of research on ANCR. That way people can choose to place whatever weighting (if any) they want regarding my comments.
Now if some of the other people on this thread would just come out and admit that they're only going to give you the good and not the bad.

<< As far as shoe-in's...how many times do you have to read that there are three main competitors in the Fibre Channel switch area right now? >>

You mean Arxcel, Brocade, and McData? So ANCR is the fourth? ANCR has been around the longest so it should be the leader, but it isn't.

Pigboy,

<<As far as shoe-in's...how many times do you have to read that there are three main competitors in the Fibre Channel switch area right now?>>

Good point. I can't count the number of times I have typed, "Brocade, McData, and Arcxel" when referring to Ancor's competitors.
