Bill, >>"I did not know Adaptec was in trouble?"<< Here are their last few quarters worth of revenues: 251.7 265.1 271.4 278.1 254.2 203.6 181.0 Also, their CEO and at least one other top executive resigned (or otherwise) in the last couple of months. Their revenues have been shrinking, I think they would say, in large part because of the low cost PC gaining a lot of market share. Put very basically, SCSI > IDE in terms of cost, so the higher priced I/O controller, SCSI, doesn't fit with the low cost PC. The rumors still fly about Adaptec being bought out, although their president did say the Intel rumor was wrong, and they had a solid plan for survival on their own. Standard disclaimers abound and proceed at your own risk. Tony
