Pigboy, I don't know whether someone other than Ancor has such a device in the works, but due to the delay in bringing it to market, I consider it likely. <<On a side not, the Louie article ends with a quote about FC to the desktop not being around soon. What was the point of that quote? So what? FC is for storage--server to server, or server to storage, OLTP, Data Warehousing, Internet Commerce, etc...for the soon to be present buddy, don't worry about that desktop anytime soon.>> Sure, Fibre Channel is for storage NOW, but it wasn't that way a year or so ago. We were all saying how Fibre Channel had a legitimate shot at going all the way to the desktop, instead of ATM, or Gigabit Ethernet. That isn't going to happen, except in high-performance workgroup applications. Craig
