I didn't think you guys made disk drives, but only bought them from others, put
them in boxes, and resold them.  I believe dec's operation builds actual disk
drives including platters, actuators, servos and all that kind of stuff.  That's
a long way and a whole other line of work than putting some drives in a box with
a controller and inventing a fancy name for it.
