Walt, <<Yesterday's Wall Street Journal had an article about Microsoft going into the data storage business. This will be an area of rapid future growth, and I bet it will involve Fibre Channel SAN's.>> I bet you are right too, although Ed Schultz isn't going to like it. <g> There are several Fibre Channel articles that I haven't had time to read yet, but I'll give a synopsis as soon as I do. There is lots of SAN talk out there now. One that I read last night had to do with video editing, and there was the definite realization that a FC/AL based system simply would not scale as well as people think. Their conclusion was that SWITCHES would be needed! Now, we are making progress. Craig
