Kurt, <<<KeyLabs, Inc. was contracted by Brocade Communications Systems, Inc. to perform a comparative test of three Fibre Channel switches. The switches to be included in the comparison and the general test areas were defined by Brocade. KeyLabs concurred that the test areas focused directly on critical areas of switch functionality and would allow KeyLabs to define test cases that would determine the enterprise readiness of the switches. KeyLabs defined the individual test cases within each test area.>> Finally, I was able to download the full report. On page 104, in black and white, (I think they have to disclose this legally), Keylabs was paid by Brocade to run this test, comparing apples and oranges. I can see they are really independent and objective about this test. It is totally conflict of interest. Pure and simple. Shame on them, why can't Brocade play straight? I guess I am asking too much.
