a trade of 293,500 shares going off at 3:34 EST Curious - the Lombard intraday chart doesn't show that, but it breaks off completely very close to that point. Whatever happened at that time (computer glitch?) may have thrown off different tracking programs in different ways... - nic

Jay and All, Just thought everyone could use a little historical perspective before tomorrow. <g> Q4, 1996 - 0.9 Million Revenue, -.24 Earnings Q1, 1997 - 1.8 Million Revenue, -.18 Earnings Q2, 1997 - 2.1 Million Revenue, -.18 Earnings It is also important to bear in mind that to date, virtually NONE, and probably EXACTLY NONE of Ancor's revenue is MKII related. The new switch opens up a whole new potential market (storage) for Ancor. I happen to believe that Fibre Channel storage is where the growth will be for Ancor in the future. Witness the recent statements by Qlogic and Emulex for proof of the widespread acceptance and growth of the Fibre Channel market. Craig
