Grace, That is a difficult question to answer until we see some actual large implementations. I think Ancor could probably resell their ASIC as well as Brocade - to allow other designers to use it. We have already had one "leak" about a possible GE to FC router. At the very high end Ancor's multistage switch design should be capable high throughputs. I think it is also possible that Ancor switches could be included in other backup and SAN packages. Making the switch deals official as in the STK announcement, should have more people and competitors looking seriously at the technology. George D.
