I use a lot of disk space every day. Each of my files is about 100 Meg. The company can't afford to buy the disk space for me. Now I have to use optical disk (each one is about 5.2 Gig) to back up my files every day. The storage thing is going to go crazy. Do you have any link describing EMC's technology?

DELL-EMC OT Agree w/ Scott on DELL culture--think it's hard to replicate their model, it's synergy of structural and cultural components and it does appear hard to replicate--easy to partially but unsuccessfully imitate--as evidenced by CPQ or HP's current troubles. Seems what DELL is doing now is laterally diversifying so that they can continue to provide customer with a one-service package--model is the same, components are expanding, whether it's loading LINUX or adding storage Doesn't mean EMC won't continue to grab a lion's share--there's so much to be had in storage Jill
