<<Their integrated production, because they make the ASICs (I have that right, don't I?) means lower cost out the door and higher margins.>> The fact that MRVC designs their own ASICs is a huge advantage, IMO. In this case however, the product was purchased from Xyplex so it probably does not have MRVC ASICs in it. Who knows, it may be possible to make the product even better or lower costs further with future MRVC ASICs. Xyplex purchase was a major positive. These people are SMART.
