   I'm looking forward to that too.  I have a "grownup" SAN here, but  
I've been playing with iSCSI just to see what its capabilities and  
performance are like.  So far I've been impressed with the  
implementations I've seen...except for the GlobalSAN initiator for OS  
X, which is buggy to the point of being useless, and the company  
doesn't seem to care.

   If it doesn't, then it's a sucky and buggy iSCSI implementation.   
I'd be surprised if they did that.
