Shoreline Blvd. Mountain View, CA 94043 USA 650-810-1010 [email protected] www.computerhistory.org Biographical/Historical Note James (Jim) N. Porter was born October 3, 1931, in Sacramento, California. He received a bachelor’s degree in Advertising from San Jose State University. Porter worked in marketing for the paper manufacturer Crown Zellerbach after the company received IBM’s RAMAC, the first computer to use a disk drive, in 1956. Impressed with the machine, Porter would show it off to office visitors, and it was after this experience around the RAMAC that his interest in drive technology took off. After Crown Zellerbach, Porter worked for Memorex from 1968 to 1971 in different marketing roles and as the manager of computer media product management. In 1971, Porter was hired as the director of marketing for Cartridge Television Inc., one of the first developers of home video cassette systems. He worked there until 1973, when he took the role of director of marketing for CMX Systems, a joint Memorex- CBS company that made and marketed computer-controlled videotape editing systems. Around this time, he also worked for Rockwell International. Computer History Museum 2 James N. Porter papers X6504.2012 In 1974, Porter started his own management consulting firm, working for various companies, including Memorex. In 1977, he founded the industry analyst firm DISK/TREND, which published annual market study reports on the disk drive and data storage industries. DISK/TREND was considered the industry standard for market studies, and Porter was in high demand to speak on panels and present his DISK/TREND reports at disk and storage conferences worldwide. Porter was a founder and chairman of IDEMA (International Disk Drive Equipment and Materials Association), and was heavily involved in their annual DISKCON trade shows, both in the United States and in Asia. He also founded the DataStorage conference. Porter retired DISK/TREND in 1999. He continued speaking at conferences and shows until the end of his life. He died March 2, 2012. Scope and Content of the Collection The James N. Porter papers contain records from Porter’s career in the disk drive and data storage industries, especially in his role as founder and president of DISK/TREND. The collection spans from 1956 to 2010 with the bulk of the collection ranging from 1970 to 2003, around the period of DISK/TREND’s active years. The largest parts of the collection comprise DISK/TREND’s profiles on companies active in the disk drive industry. Porter filed and classified most of these companies as “manufacturers” (Series 1), but also kept separate files on “suppliers” (Series 5). The material in Series 1, “Disk drive manufacturer profiles,” was relatively more extensive and organized than other parts of the collection. For instance, each manufacturer profile includes DISK/TREND worksheets, which were used in Porter’s interviews with industry leaders and also in providing content for DISK/TREND publications. Another significant part of the collection covers material that Porter collected and/or created from conferences, symposia, workshops, and other events taking place within the data storage industry. Two conferences that Porter co-founded and operated: DISKCON (run under IDEMA) and DataStorage, are heavily represented in this part of the collection. The collection also holds storage industry market studies, which include reports from peer publications similar to DISK/TREND, analyst reports created for investment purposes, academic market studies authored under business schools, and a small amount of DISK/TREND reports. Porter’s research files on various types of data storage technologies are also held in this collection, along with records from his employment and consulting work outside of DISK/TREND. Lastly, there is a small amount of unprocessed audiovisual material. Arrangement The collection is arranged into 7 series: Series 1, Disk drive manufacturer profiles, 1959-2010, bulk 1971-1999 Series 2, Conferences, courses, and presentations, 1977-2010 Series 3, Storage industry market studies, 1969-2012, bulk 1977-2003 Series 4, Data storage background files, 1978-2010 Series 5, Disk drive supplier profiles, 1976-2010 Series 6, Non-DISK/TREND employment and consulting, 1956-1986 Series 7, Unprocessed AV material, 1970-2002 Computer History Museum 3 James N.

  • Show Sags, Technology Too
    April 2002 / Volume 15#4 / Issue No. 171 CeBIT 2002 SHOW SAGS, TECHNOLOGY TOO Less major technological innovation, fewer booths and a lot fewer people. For the first time since 1975, the number of exhibitors shrank at CeBIT. Why? (Special report from Jean-Jacques Maleval in Hanover, Germany) No need for panic among the owners of this major event. CeBIT (cebit.de), extended from 7 to 8 days, is still far and away the largest computer show in the world. Nevertheless, overall participation shrank, notwithstanding organiz- ers’ projections of a record 8,316 booths and 810,000 visitors. This year, in fact, there were 131 or 2% fewer booths compared to the previous year. From 2001 to 2002, attendance figures fell significantly, by 18% to roughly 700,000. The trams, the restaurants, the city streets, parking lots, press room and expo floor were decidedly less crowded than last year (much to CEBIT’S GROWTH FROM 1993 TO 2002 the relief of those won- dering how CeBIT could possibly handle more people). Several possible reasons All major general com- puter expos have been hurt this year, and CeBIT was perhaps the least hit. Many are beginning to ask themselves why bother to travel when all the information is a click away on the Internet. It (1) Source: StorageNewsletter (2) Source: CeBIT * estimated doesn’t help, further- more, that the worldwide IT economy is shrinking. Nor is the city of Hanover the best-suited to welcome such an event (and no doubt past visitors have vivid and unpleasant memories of the crowds and the inconvenience).
