Meredith has been getting us
up to speed on the Arcamax.
:41:08
We'd like your read on it.
:41:10
Meredith said there are problems.
:41:13
You might have to go back
to the drawing board.
:41:16
I'm sorry if I conveyed that
impression to Meredith.
:41:20
I'm convinced we can manufacture them.
:41:23
How many of the drives meet specs?
:41:26
I don't have that information with me.
:41:28
Meredith told us the line is running
at 29%%%. Is that approximately right?
:41:33
The seek times are off-specs.
:41:35
There's a power flicker in the screen?
:41:38
-Right?
-That's right.
:41:40
With the merger impending,
shouldn't you have told someone?
:41:43
The merger isn't about a CD-ROM
that might be obsolete in a year.
:41:47
It's about people.
:41:49
-It'll be obsolete in a year?
-The promise of the Arcamax...
:41:53
...was a central factor in this merger.
:41:55
I may be at fault. Tom said the
problem with the drives was serious.
:41:59
Not so serious.
:42:00
Don't cover up.
:42:01
-I'm not covering anything up.
-Give us worst case.

00:42:04,785 --> 00:42:08,539
We go back to the drawing boards
and we're down for nine months.
:42:09
Nine months?
:42:10
Meredith said six weeks.
:42:12
Nobody likes to go back to the board,
but it can be an advantage.
:42:17
Is there a problem?
:42:18
This isn't an inquisition.
I feel like I'm pulling teeth.
:42:21
John just wants to get a handle on
what the problems are with the lines.
:42:27
-I don't know is the honest answer.
-Wait a minute.
:42:31
You are head of Manufacturing.
:42:33
You are in charge of Arcamax.
There are problems with it...
:42:37
...that could take nine months to fix,
which I assume means a year.
:42:41
And the bottom line is...
:42:44
...you don't know?
:42:47
Goddamn it!
:42:49
Goddamn it!
:42:50
Jesus Christ!
:42:57
I wanted to see you.
It's not going to work out with Meredith.
