Winston, OT Correction re CSCO. John Morgridge is now the Chairman of Cisco and I believe that he hired John Chambers as the President of Cisco. I was lucky enough to be an early investor in Cisco and I see some similarities in NTAP: Rapid penetration of a new market; strong products and accelerating sales. Regards, ...Hal

I encourage you to look at the NetApp web page www.netapp.com for complete info on management. I will tell you this: Dan Warmenhaven and (sp?) Jeff Allen were brought in by Don Valentine. Mr. V is the Chm of Board of NTAP and, I believe is or was Chm of Board of CSCO. Mr. V. is the one who put Chambers in place at CSCO. I do know these guys and they are golden. They have what it takes to go on. They are big time players. (Chambers was NOT a big time player when he started at CSCO. He had be a VP of Sales at Wang.)
