Jim: Thanks. We will probably get the answer on shares bought back, at the conference call two weeks from now.

New question: Today Adaptec announced two new Ultra 2 SCSI cards--the 2930U2 and the 3950U2. I am intrigued by the description of the 2930U2 as enabling throughput of 80 MB/S "regardless of the kinds of peripherals being used." Does this mean your SCSI peripherals don't have to be Ultra2 in order to achieve the 80 MB/S? Can that be so? I must be misinterpreting the press release. If that is so, isn't the card fairly advanced? Your thoughts, please.

Very nice 4 percent increase today.

Anyone notice that QLGC blew through its previous all-time high today, by a measly 12 bucks, to $163? It was below $5 five years ago, when it came public in a spinoff, so not a bad runup. As for ADPT? Down 3/16 in realtime at the moment. Anybody else getting just a bit impatient?
