EMC Tightens Its Embrace of VMware

,----[ Quote ]
| If EMC does plan to sell off its controlling stake in VMware, the company is
| maintaining a spectacular poker face.
|
| On Tuesday, EMC held its first broad strategy update in almost three years.
| The company’s chief executive, Joe Tucci, presided over the affair, more than
| half of which centered on the virtualization software sold by VMware.
|
| [...]
|
| Mr. Maritz, once a top executive at Microsoft, boasted that VMware has
| shifted towards building a virtual operating system that runs not just
| servers but also storage and networking gear.

| Maybe it's time for VMware to officially set up shop in Seattle. Today, the
| virtualization spin out from EMC announced that former Microsoft and
| Crossgain executive Tod Nielsen is joining the Palo Alto, Calif.-based
| company as chief operating officer.
|
| He will report directly to former Microsoft vice president and Seattle
| resident Paul Maritz, who took over the CEO post at VMware in July. In fact,
| EMC -- the majority shareholder of VMware -- has been making some very
| interesting moves in the Seattle area recently.
