Have you heard about floods in Indonesia..........

[Youngspanion]

I called a TC Electronic Dealer yesterday and he told me that he cannot get any thing from TC Electronic (I called looking for a RS 210) because of floods in indonesia hurting production.

Yeah, it hit HP pretty hard, too. They are unable to ship over 1200 servers that we have on order at work. 2012 is already looking rough...

Bad news.

Holy crap! We're in the same boat at work although we have only about 55 servers (HP also) on order. They told us it was the disk drives that they are having problems sourcing.

On a slightly different topic, I was thinking about disk drives in general relative to the neodymium issues in China, since I believe they also use neodymium magnets, so it seems like it wouldn't just affect our beloved neo speakers.

You mean Thailand, right?

[Youngspanion]

I guess. I don't remember. But I cannot find anything on line about floods in indonesia so it must be thailand.
