Biased?

this statement in the product section strikes me as fairly biased, should we go through the entire tone of the article, or am i just reading it wierdly? "EMC’s data storage products are built to store and protect information." Chocrates (talk) 17:44, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Ridiculous. I suggest you contact EMC and suggest them to add to some products' descriptions:

  • "This product is not intended store user data. It is intended to lose user data whenever the user uses the product. Be very careful when using this product. The Company is not responsible for user data used with the product."

This addition will completely satisfy your unbiased view, and quoting it in the article will give the entire article a satisfactory neutral tone you are looking for...

Thanks for providing me the daily joke. ---Comps (talk) 13:58, 21 October 2010 (UTC) --Comps (talk) 03:43, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

Selling furniture

The article currently says this about EMC's origins: "Originally a manufacturer of memory boards, (and before that, selling computer furniture) EMC quickly began expanding beyond memory to disk drives." The parenthetical remark about computer furniture is incorrect. The company EMC never sold computer furniture. Here is what EMC cofounder Dick Egan says on the subject:

A friend of mine from California owned an office furniture company---he'd designed a workstation specifically for computer users, and he wanted us to sell it to firms in New England. Now, Roger, I, and "C" (a third person who was involved briefly) had five electrical engineering degrees between us. We didn't want to become furniture salesmen! But with a 55% commission and enough samples to furnish our own office, we didn't refuse. We saw this as a way to make some money while we got our real business off the ground. We registered EMC Corporation; we manhandled desks into customers' elevators … and we made our seed money.

See the difference? The company that sold furniture wasn't EMC. It was an entirely different company that existed before EMC did. Egan and the other two EMC founders worked there as salesmen for a while to raise the capital that they later used to start EMC.

I'll delete the parenthetical remark and add some external links to the historical pages at the EMC official site. Pat Berry 20:36, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Update required?

I agree the History section needs to be changed, I believe, as I'd always thought the name originated as per the 'trivia' section that states, "EMC Corporation" is the company's full name, shortened in the company logo by using the mathematical convention of squaring the C."

I can't find mention of the anonymous third partner anywhere on their website.

One other acquisition that is missing

Would be Conley Corp. EMC acquired them in 1998 (IIRC, the date was August or early September). I worked for Conley at the time, so I remember this very clearly. Conley was based in Cambridge, MA after moving from NYC. The Conley product that EMC wanted was SafePath. EMC sold off the other major Conley product at the same time, which was SoftRAID. joijiosjvosioviosjnoJVIOsnvoisnvjosfioasiasasfasjsas — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.174.79.159 (talk) 11:06, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

Unlikley?

I find the statement "EMC did not adopt the EMC² notation to refer to Einstein's famous equation, E=mc². The first C stands for the third partner who left before the formation of the company and the second C stands for the Corporation" to be highly unlikley. The form may not have been chosen solely to refer to "E=mc²" but it's pretty obvious that the formula played some part in developing the name, if only a referential one. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.135.32.188 (talk) 16:34, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Merge proposals

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
The result of this discussion was no merge D O N D E groovily Talk to me 02:11, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

I'm proposing merge of minor articles about EMC products, each one them really containing 1 or 2 paragraphs, into main EMC article and replacing them with redirects. These products are non-notable by itself and would be eventually deleted by itself. --GreyCat (talk) 08:00, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

No. This is not a minor article. The product article(s) may be extended instead. The proposal and tag are old (12/2008), and if no support for the merge in reasonable time, then tag is proven unnecessary, and should be removed. --Comps (talk) 23:52, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

No support for merge since 12/2008. Tag is being removed. Overdue. People who put tags and open discussions have to follow on them and finalize in a timely manner. Otherwise they introduce unnecessary noise in the respective articles. --Comps (talk) 22:48, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Proposed EMC Corporation Edits - Feedback Welcome!

All proposed changes implemented as of Implemented: 26 December 2010 JamiePappas (talk) 12:26, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Ionix transferred to VMware

Since Ionix was transferred to VMware (ref: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/02/25/emc_vmware_ionix/), should it be removed from the list of product offerings? Or is it included since EMC still re-sells it? Kevink707 (talk) 23:15, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Proposed Change to EMC Corporation page

I am an EMC employee in the unified storage division proposing a change to the EMC Corporation Wikipedia page. I will create a new page on the VNX family product line and add a WikiLink where "VNX/VNXe" is listed under the current "Products and Services" section. This is necessary to provide in-depth information on the new product family that launched in January 2011. Here is a link to the VNX family product website. http://www.emc.com/products/family/vnx-family.htm?CMP=int-vnx_fam-gsa Fleiscal (talk) 17:57, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Added inline link to Wikipedia article on Advanced Persistent Threat, as most people who are not in information security wouldn't understand the term.Wzrd1 (talk) 05:17, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
