uf,

The IBM support deal has been in the works for years and is a major big-deal. IBM support is without parallel in my experience. They are lacking in a great many areas, as are many large organizations, but they use that size to their advantage in providing onsite and offsite support. This is an area(the area, IMHO) NTAP is lacking, as is often the case as a company grows into their potential. I can give you the total headcount in a large city considered a remote site by NTAP: EMC 250 ; NTAP 1. Clearly different products with different support requirements, plus the relative size of the organizations, but if you want in the enterprise there is a "presence" requirement. IBM can fill this role.
