BuyS,
Looks to me like your DLT factoids are on target. To quiblle slightly--I think that 50-60% growth in 99 is what has been more often suggesed (that is, slightly more than 50%); I haven't seen a breakdown of overseas vs. US sales mix, but in the CC, they said that so far they have generated a great majority of their sales in the US, and would start to focus on international sales now that they think they have the manufacturing down.

I don't know how the tape margins to drives (I assume you mean the tape itself relative to the tape drives). Since there is competition for the tape, I would assume that the margins are less.

Best,
Sam

-DLT growth of 100% for fiscal year 98 over fiscal 97. Still works out to impressice qtr vs year ago comparisons for Dec and March.
-DLT tape margins comparable to tape drive margins.
