I didn't say it, but it's true.

Quantum's strategy is to migrate the OEMs up to the Fireball as the value desktop and the Fireball Plus as the performance desktop. If they can get their drives out fast and keep the costs low, they can exact some major pain on their competitors.

Thus, despite all this talk about rationalizing their roadmap, they continue to maintain four product lines, although I keep saying they should merge the SCSI and IDE 7200rpm line. Maybe next generation.
