<<If IBM continues to place orders, this could help to smooth out the revenue bumps. One thing to note is that Ancor's customer base is growing, albeit not nearly fast enough to guarantee success without a major OEM.>>

Craig,

ANCR is building up a nice looking reseller/customer list for its focused vertical markets.

The four LAN markets that Cal stated were CAD/CAM, data backup, geoseismic and defense.

CAD/CAM = Hucom, (what happened to IST?)
Data backup = IBM/GS
Geoseismic = Amoco, GeoQuest
Defense = Boeing, Litton

But as you say, ultimate Ancor success still comes down to storage OEMs.
