There’s a reason why EMC kicked Dell’s a-s in storage marketshare across all segments. It would have been nice if they respected that when they acquired EMC and learned from them. Instead they pushed Dell’s pea-brain ideas of how enterprise products should be engineered, sold, delivered, and what a surprise, we’ve lost marketshare, lost deep knowledge on the pre-sales side (guess where all the good pre-sales engineers went. They are making a ki-ling at Pure), our support su-ks, our documentation su-ks, and now they’ve WFRd the team that even qualifies environments to run on our products, because who needs that? Was EMC without problems? Of course not, every company has its issues, but goodness, some L-Dell folks are so far up MSD’s ar-e it’s blinding you. A laptop isn’t a PowerMax. Stop treating them the same.
