>Why not look at the real litmus test. Return on equity where both quantum and WDc have posted stellar figures in better times. I despise ROE because of all the tricks cocky management can play to boost it without actually improving anything. Remember a year ago when Todd was saying how WDC had a much better ROE than QNTM. I recall that I responded with something to the effect that WDC has a better ROE because they pissed away their E with imprudent buybacks. Now look at them.
