NetApp CEO: No, our products are like a refrigerator, how often do you have to upgrade your refrigerator.
So, what does that say for NetApp, if it's CEO is that clueless about his own product (I assume he wasn't intentionally *lying*, so what else *could* it have been, besides lack of clue)?
More often then not, when there is a problem with a filer, the suggested solution is inevitably to "upgrade to the blah-blah-[DPR]something release!". This guy has obviously never admin'd his own product.
Sigh.
