They came from AT&T Unix labs and in the previous decade were doing a lot of

Subject: RE: Commvault Galaxy


They're coming in along with a Dell chap for a bit of a chat about what we
think we want to do versus what we can afford versus what's practical etc.

When I mentioned it to one of my more knowledgeable colleagues his response
was "never heard of them".. I guess this side of things will get tackled
when they visit - it may be they're priced way out of our league anyway.

regards,
Paul
