[EC] I also dislike the term “disruption”. It is just finding a hungry vendor that will fill the (our) need. I like a #3 that is trying to grow. Then if the larger vendor sees our goal is too insignificant to care, the smalller vendor will peel away (insignificant) market share and everyone is happy. If the smaller vendor starts taking away too much market share then the dominant vendor will change. This kind of change is better than talking to a dominant vendor sitting pretty. Eugene Chang
