Vendors and Product Names

As a start, let me share some alternative company and product names that can lighten up any boring storage project status meetings: ADIC = Aay-(you)-Dick! Tape Library EMC = Evil Machine Company EMC = Extra Mirroring Company EMC DMX = Don't Mind (the) eXtra cost... HDS = Horrible Disk Solutions HDS FlashCopy = HDS FlashCrappy HDS TrueCopy = HDS TrueCoffee NetApp = NetCrap NetApp SnapVault = NetApp SnapFault . You can use this in backup team meetings, for example: "I didn't stop any backups! It's all his SnapFault!"
