Ya know this strategic alliance that dell has just made with emc, the storage company sounds like a BIG mistake on Dell's part. Perhaps the first one they have ever made. I'm not Nathan Myrvold here but what they seem to be trying to emulate is san which as nearly as I can figure it, is like a computer with the disc drive already installed, but on a really big scale. This, it would seem to me, would limit, not expand dell's options, because it will now preclude them from qualification for others server installations and will not serve to convince the purchaser that there is nothing more than the typical interface that goes on between cpu and storage. They don't have a high speed back bone to tie everything too, like cpq or ibm, so isnt this a little desperate on their part? I mean it is like the other day when aol announced a strategic alliance with google. Like, so what??? ruddeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?
