message: * what is the correct pronunciation of LaCie?
** I pronounce it Luh-SEE. | -ShaneCavanaugh 20:22, September 12, 2005 (UTC)
** I ordered one of their drives from Dell.  The lady on the phone pronounced it LaSee.  I guess she'd know, since she told me later on that she used to work for them before they moved their headquarters to Oregon.  I've always pronounced it LaySee though, and still do. :) | -LStrong2K 16:58, October 1, 2005 (UTC)

message: LaCie now has a 2TB external hard drive, which should be added to the timeline. I would ad it myself, but I don't know when it was released. They sell it on Amazon. Wuffyz
There's an archive of their press releases at http://www.lacie.com/uk/company/news/ (back to 2004). Bear in mind that European and US prodcu releases sometimes differ - select UK in "choose country" menu for European PR in English. Wikidwitch 23:32, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

message: There's no mention of LaCie buying out drive maker APS, which was a major Mac HD company in the 90s.  LaCie continued to use APS's cases for a couple years after the takeover (right before the d2 line of drives came out). --68.103.154.140 03:44, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Since design is so important to LaCie's history, should the design section be more thorough to cover each of their new introductions over the years? Images could be used from their press releases to visually illustrate the different designs. I would be willing to do the research, but should it be done?

message: Joel's first new car was a Renault Le Car, hence La Cie. The French was not correct but it sounded and looked better than Le Cie.
How's the French not correct in "La Cie"? Actually "Le Cie" would be incorrect. Cie is a standard abbreviation for "compagnie" as stated above. Compagnie is a feminine, hence "La" is the only correct solution. -- L.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aaton77 (talk • contribs) 00:41, August 27, 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  La Cie / Le Cie 

message: I removed the nonsensical, badly researched paragraph on "problems", which has no place here - especially since it was based solely on testimony of a motley assortment of customers whose qualification cannot be substantiated. After all, there is no "Problem" secion anywhere else, or is there one on "General Motors" automobiles, etc. Theomas Muething  —Preceding undated comment was added at 15:41, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Problems" 

message: To reiterate, this is the worst Wikipedia technology article I have ever read. More of the article consists of how the company got its name than any other issue. It is obviously written by a bunch of stupid apple fan boys. Every hard drive manufacturer in the world has problems. However not one associated with Apple -- the problem section has been removed. I came here to answer one simple question: Does the company manufacture its own drives or use drives manufactured by other companies such as Seagate, Western Digital, Samsung, etc.? No information to be found. I am quite sure I will not be allowed to edit a single word of this article. In fact, any day I expect to see it locked down with a silver or gold lock because written by Apple fan boys, is, by definition, perfect and in no need of any actual facts. Just compare this article with the ones on the Western Digital or Seagate.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.22.191.133 (talk) 17:00, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
