Yes Chuck, it's the person you knew. Bob was the TD of NetApp and was the owner of scsi.com (Summit Computer Systems, Inc.), a domain he registered way back when the only registrar was Stanford. The funny part is later in life he actually worked on the SCSI (disk) standard. Though the website may have been taken down, email still works.

I've been lucky to grow up with Patrick Davis, Bob's son, as one of my best friends, and he told me of Bob's passing last night.

Per Bob's request there won't be a services/funeral, but this spring/summer there will be a party commemorating his life. It's what he wanted. I don't know the details yet.
