>>This is only my opinion, but I think Adaptec is totally off base.<< Craig-I think Adaptec was parsing(most popular word of 1998) their words here. I think what they were saying was at their end of the market they could safely say that FC was at least two years away. I think that is true as you scale down to small networks that really is more of where Adaptecs customers are . I think what the CEO of Adaptec was refering to and he is probably right about FC being a few years away at that end of the market. I doubt we will be seeing an FC switch, hub or adapter connected to a Zip or a stack of Zip drives yet. No? I'm not sure he was really refering to the FC market as a whole but to the impact of FC on Adaptecs business in the near term. Ed
