<thanks for the clarification on the relationship between TSA and GMR. However something Jane Conn told me about a month ago lead me to believe that the adoption of GMR would lead to more widespread use of TSA - am i mistaken? > No, you're not mistaken. Wider spread use of GMR will raise demand for better interconnects, but my point was that currently MR has proven great need for TSA. If RDRT customers were at the higher end, they would probably demand TSA whether they buying GMR or not. RDRT is mostly a mid to low end supplier reliant on the desktop. TSA is going into the higher end; note book, enterprise drives, and high end desk top. TSA is a costly solution that is filling demand from the top down. Regards, Mark
