Roger, ever since Ancor failed to obtain the Sun business I have wondered the some thing about product comparisoon. We simply don't know, but those who azre evaluating the relative merits of the switches do know. The votes are being cast, and our product is not receiving any endorsements, from anyone. While the product must be good enough to have lured new management, and enabled them to speak, are we certain that they even know enough about MKII to make informed comparisons?

Roger,

I have had the same thoughts of late. Most of us with technical backgrounds have been quite confident in our belief that the MKII was a superior switch. However, that just doesn't seem to be holding true to form in the marketplace. I understand that these deals come down to more than just technical merit, but it doesn't seem likely that NONE of the big OEMs would choose Ancor if the switch was as good as we thought.
