I believe that INKT also has the Hotbot search engine. This is why the price has gone up so far and so fast. As far as the competition between the two in the cache area, isn't NTAP more of a hardware based solution and INKT is more in the software area of this field? Any help in this area would be appreciated. I have to admit that I have been lazy about investigating this more because of the great summer weather in my area. Thanks for the help and it's great to see this board come alive again.

>what did our noble leader do to cool the momentum players 18 months ago? First, as the story is told, he was able to identify what was the cause of the run up. It was from a few big buys by some momentum players. Then he started calling the anal-ysts explaining the the run up was not warranted, etc. I do not know what happened next, but I would be willing to bet that the institutional folks started selling, making a profit, and bringing the price down. The price declined rapidly. See the charts beginning in about October 96 through about January 96.
