So Much for “Getting Along”

by Administrator on March 2, 2010

So, Sepaton has a funny on YouTube about a tape ejecting from a PC drive and killing Don, the IT guy.  I guess that this is an example of how a company uses “new media.”

Hmm.

To go along with this video, the company just released the results of a survey of 400 IT folks in the US and Europe.  The results support Sepaton’s Tape is Dead story (SEPATON is no tapes spelled backwards).  De-duplicated disk is the replacement, they argue — though privately they claim to work within the tape ecosystem.

The whole thing reminds me of something Adolph Hitler once said about propaganda:  blocked from entering the mind through the front door of reason, we will convince folks by going through the back door of entertainment.

I have a call scheduled with Sepaton on Thursday.
