*SEAGATE TECHNOLOGY PLC*
(abbreviated as ‘seagate’)
(an american-founded ‘data storage company’)
.
(since ‘2010’, the company is incorporated in ‘dublin’ (/ ‘ireland’), with operational headquarters in ‘cupertino’ / ‘california’ / ‘united states’)
(does ‘ireland’ offer some sort of ‘corporate tax loophole’?)
(‘seagate’ developed the first ‘5.25-inch hard disk drive’ (‘HDD’) –>
(the ‘5-megabyte ST-506’)
(‘1980’)
(“how quaint!”)
(i know that’s a ‘tiresome trope’ / ‘moore’s law’ in ‘reverse’)
(and laughing our asses off at the past)
(they were a major supplier in the ‘microcomputer market’ during the 1980s, especially after the introduction of the ‘IBM XT’ in ‘1983’)
(today ‘seagate’ (along with ‘western digital’ dominates the ‘HDD market’)
(much of their ‘growth’ has come through ‘acquisition of competitors’)
(aka a “modern monoploy”!)
(“look guys, a ‘real live!’ ‘monopoly’!)
(as if you were pointing out some ‘strange animal’ you never knew existed)
(in 1989, ‘seagate’ acquired ‘control data corporation'(βs) ‘imprimis’ division, makers of ‘CDC'(βs) ‘HDD products‘)
(‘seagate’ acquired ‘conner peripherals’ in ‘1996’, ‘maxtor’ in ‘2006’, and ‘samsung'(βs) ‘HDD’ business in ‘2011’)
.
(it was incorporated in ‘1978’ as ‘shugart technology’)
