GM, <<Stitch, the thread is #4 on the hot list... >> Yes, according to Robert we even had 1st place for a bit. My next posts will be in one sentence increments. I can't stand being #4 anything (cept maybe on the K.P. list). <GGG> best, Stitch

Thread; Marty posted this interesting repost on the SI RDRT thread from the yahoo RDRT thread: <<You are right the 4.3 is an AMR drive(3.4 Gb/in2). GMR volume ramp is due early next year, first products will be 4.5 GB/in2. Stability and amplitude are the keys for the high density AMR heads. RDRT-SMI is the key Maxtor supplier, but I have heard Fremont has made recent progress in this area and may have passed SMI in AMR performance. Interesting post on SEG board about a possible SEG agreement to buy GMR head technology from Japan. A major external purchase of GMR heads by SEG or IBM could fuel GMR head shortage during 2nd QTR 99.>> The observer is a nickname of MBAPHD and is knowledgeable. Best, Stitch
