You wrote: Anyway, back to the subject of Compaq. Yes, it does look like Compaq will be moving to switches much faster than we thought. One thing that is kind of nice is that Compaq may be calling the shots, and since they are not located anywhere near Brocade, like a lot of DEC's (research)facilities are, we won't have quite the geographical disadvantange that we had before. Reply: The DEC decision came from Colorado Springs and MA. There were no california labs involved. Compaq has a very low price per port threshold and switches in that price range are not et available. As far as Sun, not Andreas or Bill get's to influence the decision, and Sun will be delaying a switched implementation for awhile from what I've heard. Roy Sardina
