Item 8.01. Other Events.

As previously reported in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, effective January 1, 2006, EMC Corporation modified the basis of presentation of its operating segments from previous reporting periods to reflect the change in measures used by management in evaluating the performance of its operating segments. Stock-based compensation and acquisition-related intangible asset amortization expenses were removed as components of segment operating profitability and presented as a separate reconciling item called “Corporate Reconciling Items”.

EMC is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K in order to retrospectively adjust, as required, the information contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 (the “2005 10-K”) to conform to the new presentation of its reportable segments presented by EMC in its 2006 Form 10-Q’s.

EMC has retrospectively adjusted in Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 to this Current Report the following items that were contained in our 2005 10-K:

-Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

-Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

The financial information contained in this Current Report is presented as of December 31, 2005, and except as indicated above, this information has not been updated to reflect financial results subsequent to that date or any other changes since the date of the 2005 10-K.

In a press release issued on November 13, 2006, EMC announced that it intends to offer convertible senior notes in a private offering, subject to market conditions and other factors. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.3, is incorporated herein by reference, and is hereby filed.
