Total revenue for quarter was $180.6M . So RAID, Network, 1394, satellite, etc. provided $600K for the quarter. I'm guessing that FC fits in there too.

Grant stated his intent to get OpEx below 35% by growth in top line, and 'increased focus'. When asked whether that meant more layoffs, Grant said "not across-the-board RIFs, but we will have increased focus."

So if revenue is $200M, OpEx at 35% would be $70M, down from current $92M. Maybe it will be focused slicing, but it sounds like the cuts will be pretty substantial.
