Mark: Is this "and that its Integrated Lead Suspension technology provides room for more disk platters in a smaller place inside the disk drive." the long awaited and suspected confirmation of where the HTCH TSA production is going?

Mark,

Re: MRX

Only thing I know is that it involves narrower tracks. I believe the 8.1 GB Travelstar has an areal density of 3 Gigabits/in2. That means that IBM now has the 2.65 Gbits/in2 and 3.00 Gbits/in2 MR heads in the portable segment. We'll probably see IBM bring that to the mainstream next year.

Re: Integrated lead suspensions

HIF from Hutchison?

P.S. Thanks, Ron.
