Byte and Switch: OK then, what about Storigen Networks, which plans to bring storage to the edge? Why is that important?

This will require smart, cost-effective devices; not big, dumb EMC storage, and this is what Storigen is working on.

Baldwin: They have not formally launched yet but are delightfully far along.
