Z, Actually Maxtor stands to benefit less then Seagate because they are only in Singapore where the currency has not been hit as hard as Malaysia and Thailand where, as you noted, Seagate has much in the way of operations. In addition, I do not know of any components that Maxtor gets from Korea. They get heads primarily from Read-Rite (with ops in Thailand, Malaysia, and The Philippines), and SAE/TDK (with ops in China). I am not sure who there media suppliers are. Best, Stitch
