Seagate CEO: I help people "watch porn"
 
Quote:

Bill Watkins, the mercurial, salty-mouthed Texan who runs the $15 billion hard-drive king Seagate Technology. At a San Francisco dinner on Tuesday evening, he was candid about his company's ultimate mission: "Let's face it, we're not changing the world. We're building a product that helps people buy more crap - and watch porn."

We use Seagate drives too, so they are definitely helping people watch porn!

320 is odd?

Matt 26z 04-12-2008 08:37 PM

Well really, what business does the average person have with a 300gb... 500gb... and even 1TB drive? That is a crazy amount of space that can be utilized only by huge amounts of porn.

brandonstills 04-12-2008 09:28 PM

I have 7.5 TB attached to my computer right now. And it ain't porn. lol

Mostly photos I've taken.

I was at my local computer supplier recently and overheard one of the staff explaining to the customer that he could upgrade the size of his HD to "uhh, you know, download stuff"

I presume he was referring to ripped movies, but you never know. :winkwink:

Ditto. My external 320 is killing my goddamned DVR. I need to reset it every DAY now because although they only require USB2/8MB cache, my USB2/16MB cache drive causes it to shit out because I recorded 3 weeks of "Night Court."

The 80s sucked, and the sitcoms sucked, but that was pretty cool.
