Actually, it came from a customer letter that our CEO, Ted Goodlander,
was just reading out loud to me.  I'd post the details but I'm not the 
customer is interesting in having the details of their configuration 
broadcast.  Many customers are installing high speed disk platform 
technology in an attempt to gain strategic, competitive advantage, so they 
are not always prepared to announce what their competitive advantage is, 
as I am sure many industry reporters can testify to.

Thanks, John
