he's not, he's at Pure's conference. Pure is old school storage, the opposite of hyperconvergence. If Snoop was HC, he's be out picketing.

Snoop is down with the IPOD, which is what Pure is all about. And you've always been able to get Snoop on an iPod.
-
See what I did there?
-
Currently applauding people for buying the most of their products and how they use it.

So the real question... how good is the product?
Actually the bigger question, the only real one now, is are they a viable company? Rumour is they are on their way to going under. Like Nutanix, unprofitable with no revenue model to kick in.

That explains the presence of the investors.

Which is a death knell for a storage vendor. No real business can risk investing in a storage product that is 100% dependent on the vendor for support if the vendor is expected to go under during the support window.
