I just don't see it playing out this way. I see ethernet continuing to eat 
into the high profit margins that sit around these products. The cost
of 10Gbe, 40Gbe, and ultimately 100Gbe will make it too hard to ignore.
And the high profit margins of the FC world just leaves them with a big
target on their backs.
