Seems I have been reading blog posts about this all morning with the last post being Scott Lowe’s thoughts on the subject. I have been hearing that this has been in the works for a while now and yes it will be nice to be able to use one SKU to some sort of complete hardware package for running your virtual infrastructure. I do, however have to agree with Scott Lowe that VMware has the most risk from this adventure but I really have to ask the question. Where you really expecting anything different? Let’s take a look at the money angle. EMC owns VMware and CISCO has invested a lot of money into VMware also, at least in my mind, it was just a matter of time for something like this to happen.

I blogged the same viewpoint today. This announcement is nothing but marketing hype. There's no new product - just an idea of "hey let's put all of our stuff together" and put a big red bow on it. Wake me up when there's a real announcement... I agree with your comments. I blogged the same viewpoint today. This announcement is nothing but marketing hype.

Just look at this past year: vSphere, PowerPath/VE, SRM (tighter integration with EMC storage out of the chute), Nexus 1000v, UCS (obviously built looking at virtualization). There was clearly a strong synergy between the 3 companies that was only growing stronger. Rod Steve,
