About this EMC/MTI thing -- speaking from somebody intimately familiar with both companies, products, etc..

First: The standard EMC end-user contract prohibits EUs from publishing benchmarks. If they do, EMC can (and will) sue them. I've
seen it happen. I would expect the end-user that had the EMC would not be mentioned. If C&R used their own EMC subsystem then EMC could force the study to be pulled out of public domain.

Second: The EMC family and MCI family of enterprise servers are different. Granted for most applications MTI's are faster, but EMC supports more platforms. Any analysis between them that limits comparisons to speeds & feeds may not be relevant. Other significant differences come in features, redundancy, on-line backup & disaster recovery.

Finally: Can somebody email me with a URL that has the article? I would like the opportunity to comment on it further. (We have some additional internal EMC benchmarks that I would like to compare this study with).

Thanks.
