Illustrative sun rays swirl into room 404 through a large window
Since The Acquisition™, there has been a great deal of discussion around EMC’s brand. How do we, the inhabitants of room 404, affect the identity of a 30,000 employee company?

There are some interesting ideas surfacing that will bubble up in due time. For now, I thought it would be fun to just start making pretty things and slapping EMC’s logo on them.

We’ve got a fantastic view from our office and I’ve been meaning to get here early enough to snap some photos of the sunrise. I got here just in time this morning, then went ahead and made these desktop wall papers just for you. Because I love you. Please – enjoy.

    Ouch, that much white in a desktop wallpaper doesn’t work with my current configuration.
    I forgot my sunglasses today.
    I thought ya’all were merging with Microsoft or something, I must have my wires crossed.

    @ty: We are part of the EMC’s Microsoft Practice – which is probably where you’re getting confused. That’s where most of us other people do.
