Of course. I've been trying to get people to ask more questions about Ceto for the last 2 years at least. But more recently the kind you ask someone while poking him in the breastbone or twisting their ear, not so much the academic what-ifs. "Not that there's anything wrong with that."

As for trying to understand the whys and hows of where we are at, being a Carnegie holder has taught me one important lesson; What Carnegie say in their announcements is often not as important as what they don't say. Ceto 5's lack of results and the lack of communication regarding Ceto 6's delay over the last 2 years told some of us clearly that there were performance issues with the former and related redesign work being done on the later, a long, long time before Carnegie finally (almost on accident) confessed this much recently.

Trying to do the same reading around the words with the EMC side of the business is harder though. There's not enough words to start with.
