This reminded me Mozy story. EMC CEO was searching for backup software for his home PC and found Mozy. He liked it so much so he acquired company making Mozy.

Maybe this time he found Pivotal Tracker? ;)
- geoffschmidt 15y agoSure, but EMC and Mozy are a natural fit. It's not like he heard a really good song on the radio, and the next day EMC bought the record label.
- nivertech 15y agoYou never know. The scenario you described not much different from ebay buying Skype.
- the_paul 15y agoThey sound like they should be, right? Mozy did storage, EMC did storage? But as a Mozy employee during the time of the acquisition, I'd like to state for the record how emphatically and fantastically wrong this is. There is more of a "natural fit" between Sesame Street and Godzilla's wang than there was between Mozy and EMC. :)
