Your know-how does not include the fact that advertising on Usenet is
frowned upon, heavily. And that SHOUTING IN THE SUBJECT LINE is
something that script-kiddies and foaming-at-the-mouth fanatics do.
This is a discussion forum, not an advertising medium. There is
nothing top-notch about the little stunt you just pulled. If you want
to put out press releases, contact Reuters, not newsgroups for
discussion of computer storage architecture.

Let me tell you a little fable. Once upon a time, there used to be a
storage systems company called "Storage Computer" (their ticker symbol
was SOS). They claimed to have invented RAID-5, and even managed to
get a patent on it (which they lost again after a lawsuit, the judge
said something like "the patent is fraudulent on the face of it").
They also claimed to have implemented RAID-7, in spite of the fact
that only RAID levels 1...6 were ever described on standarized. But
their worst offense was incessant advertising on comp.os.vms and
comp.arch.storage. Many times, other regulars of these discussions
forums contacted Storage Computer's CEO (the famous Ted Goodlander),
and complained. Storage Computer went through marketing/sales guys
like there was no tomorrow. Now they are nearly completely dead,
having lost many millions of $$$, and having been delisted. And the
moral of the story is: This is what you get for being dishonest and
loud-mouthed.

In this spirit: Dear CEO of Rocket Division software, please fire your
marketing/sales guys, before they drag the rest of your company down.
