Mark,
"Any ideas on the inventory turns from other major players?"
Well, before things turned sour for WDC, they were doing about 22 turns, I think, while SEG was mired down at around 11 or 12. QNTM was rising from 10 or 11 to 14, as you noted, but I don't have numbers from the past 2 quarters. I may be much sicker than that. At least if Maxtor does go public, we'll be able to get decent numbers on them. I don't recall reading them in their SEC Registration Statement, though they may have been there.

Mark, GM, all,
Any opinions on this allegedly "revolutionary" step in mass storage systems, according to Lucent and Cirrus?

I can't claim any real understanding of it myself. Hope someone out there can offer some intelligent commentary.
