When a whole bunch of heavyweights in the storage networking industry beat a path to the door of a single startup, thats a pretty good indication that the company in question has got something special.

(NYSE: LSI) are expected to announce support for InterSANs storage network management software. And in each case, thats going to be followed by joint marketing and sales initiatives.
