a) Failure to do so just means that someone else does, and wins the customer. b) A lot of "enterprise class" infrastructure wonks are very, very conservative. They'll want to continue with the architecture they have for a long time to come. I suspect that the real "loss" is the potential to convert up and coming shops to the premium storage ... but that would have been an uphill battle anyway, so moving that class of consumer into "open storage" is an easier sell anyway. -- Keith H.
