Ted - Lookig at DGN's financials I don't see any improvement in their performance over the last 5 quarters. Sales and margins are flat to down. Is there something in their business that EMC can tap that DGN was not able to? Kevin M. Reilly

I agree Sounds like EMC wants to go head-to-head with independent midrange storage companies like NTAP and with the "private label" offerings of the various PC makers but did not want to pay a huge premium to do so. DGN is also based in Massachusetts, so I imagine that simplifies the logistics of the acquisition.
