My first reaction was that this was a joke of some kind.  However, the
CMS Watch website does indeed propound the same sort of attitude towards
EMC.  While some of the statements were thought provoking, the overall
tone of the press release seemed very negative, incredibly ignorant, and
a bit confrontational.  I personally do not believe EMC (as sold and
touted by many vendors) is the answer to all things electronic, however,
there is some good in the technology when used correctly.  The statement
<as well as a ban on the term "document management"> is simply ignorance
of the definition of the term, ignorance of the RIM profession, and
ignorance of the possibilities of the use of the technology itself. 

I doubt very much that I will look favorably on CMS Watch after this.
