- Correct. CDC sold Imprimis (it's drive division, maker of Wren and other
- Really Fine Drives) to Seagate last year so that Seagate could sell *real*
- drives instead of coal-fired, pull-start, steam-powered, rattlin', clunkin',
- smack-it-when-it-won't-spin-up heaps o'dung that they used to peddle on
- unsuspecting consumers.
