Well, there goes what is probably the most flexible backup product on
the market.

If Veritas is the buyer, the admin interface will go to crap unless
Veritas decides to bail on NetBackup.  This would be typical of Veritas'
style in the industry.  They didn't create their products, they acquired
them for the most part.

My personal hope would be for EMC to purchase them.  The drawback to
that would probably be the support price tag would go through the roof.
I think when the label says EMC, you end up paying $333,333.33 per
letter.  The number 2 only costs $.01.
