Robert, <<Hope the responses of late have made you feel needed around here.>> I dunno, seems like a pretty rough crowd.<G> It is another late night here, still playing catch-up after the long trip. Z, you had asked about HTCH. I didn't really hear anything to add to what we already know. Some are still commenting that the cost is too high due to yield issues, but it didn't sound like anything extraordinary. One thing I did learn is that IBM will not be doing any new designs with aluminum media and are going 100% glass. Very low fly heights will be the goal. It is still clear to me that something has to give in this industry. Twixt now and then we will tread water, much as we have I expect. G Nite guys. Truly exhausted. Best, Stitch
