The Dell-IBM news has nothing to do with EMC or MTIC. gmccon you have no idea about this industry. Your comments on MTI provide no rationale or logic. Please support your statements with some facts or least speculation that would back a comment Who does EMC buy drives from anyway?? How about MTI? No wonder you lost money on MTI.

IBM does not currently sell an open systems disk storage subsystem that competes with MTI. The IBM Seascape architecture may do this in the future, but IBM has never been know for strong subsystems that work with other vendors' servers. The Dell announcement is talking about supplying disk drives, not subsystems. IBM already supplies disk drives to Dell, and on the conference call the company indicated that there wouldn't be much increase in revenue from Dell from this announcement for quite some time. It's an interesting technological partnership, but hardly a "nail in the coffin" of MTI. -Mark K.
