@leighgrace is it better 2 be all over the news, or in the news?
@SEPATONJay Ah, I C, my premise if U R a company not looking 4 startup, u look 4 rev + vars/oem/customer install base/patent/hw, sw prod mix
@SEPATONJay yes, true, that is what I said, QTM total rev is about 3x that of DDUP total rev, plain and simple
@Mike_Fishman thanks 4 mentioning, just looked at with preasure rising, peek conditions r in a couple of hours, time 2 wrap up work!
@leighgrace add 2 that the dedupe disco dance, or, hey, u get off of my cloud, flash dance and so on

@glanceteel 4 sure, I can c it now, several doing the pick me dedupe disco dance, otoh, isnt Barny Frank conducting bailout hearings 2day?
@storageio time 4 next round of vendors emailing/PRing why they should b picked by NTAP?, think of Eddie Murphy as Donkey, pick me! pick me!

@storageio EMC wraps up data deduplication vendor Data Domain; what's next for EMC, NetApp? http://searchstorage.techtarget.com/news...
@storageio while popular 2 talk about lost tapes, 1200 laptops reported lost/stolen a week at LAX http://blogs.laweekly.com/ladaily... a gift 4 backup?
@sfoskett I said cloud as an example, and not your cloud btw, it costs me more than $1 per month 2 send less than 2TB to a cloud (e.g. m ...
@Mike_Fishman think of the blogging around dedupe as optimized fishing stories ;)
@sfoskett why $1 a tape (e.g. up 2 2TB compress) transport & stored/month a rip off? Transport, handling, storing 4 $1 is cheaper than cloud
@storaeio lotsa talk EMC overpaid 4 DDUP, on a relative basis, did Sun overpay 4 STK, ORCL 4 Sun, Dell 4 EQLC, IBM 4 XIV, NTAP 4 SPNKR, etc.
@glanceteel likewise I can be reached at 651-275-1563

@glanceteel Yup, thats why Im here...
@JohnSWebster Oh, that's good...
@glanceteel I live in the stillwater area, have been in area 4 about 18 years
@storageio 4 numerolgists, EMC buying DDUP on 7, 8, 9 (e.g. July 8th, 2009), what does that mean if anything other than more twitter fodder?
@storageio if u r a var carrying #DDUP, r u excited about #EMC or sad #NTAP will not b carrying #DDUP? From vars Ive talked 2 its very mixed
@StorageMojo Robin u might b right, looking at fin, $600K debt, $300K non recur exp aside, QTM is generating about 3x rev compared 2 #DDUP
@mrudnick EMC paid alot 4 DDUP, money is relatively cheap now, where else can u get a better ROI? given DDUP price, QTMN may not be cheap
