The Hot Aisle: When was the last time you saw a Data Center press release that didn't make some green or energy efficiency claim? | The Hot Aisle

    Steve - I couldn't agree more. I am becoming more and more annoyed by vendors and their marketing people trying to promote their products by jumping on the green bandwagon when there is no basis in fact for their claims.

    It is great that someone can translate the techie babble that these people put out into clear terms that point out the misinformation.

    Keep up the good work

    It's absolutely ridiculous for a company such as Fijitsu to make those claims. Well done on bursting their bubble, Steve. I hope they take a look and respond!

    Graham,

    Thank you for your comment. I did write to Fujitsu and their PR firm asking for clarification but no one got back to me. I am always happy to make changes to any posting that is factually incorrect or unfair.

    There is an email form on the About page that can be used for this purpose.

    Shame really.

    I have waited for 10 days now looking for any feedback from Fujitsu or their PR actually hoping I had got it wrong. Looks like even the largest and most well regarded companies haven't got a clue about what being green and environmentally friendly means but are happy to make unfounded claims.

    The press release (including all of the inaccuracies) is still on the wire.

    Ridiculous

    These guys just get right up my nose, I hate liars and cheats. But I just don't get it - why would such a large company with such a huge reputation and brand to damage send out complete rubbish? I hope the culprit gets the sack.

    Thanks for keeping us up to date with the truth.
