"In its performance, the drama doesn't matter. HP has a corporate office that oversees independent-like firms, and they remain untouched by Ellison," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times. "Much of what we're seeing is historic financi...

This Friday is Black Friday. Well, we could probably call November Black Friday month, since many of the retailers started their discounting efforts last week. There will be an incredible number of deals to be had, based on some of the leaked information from megavendors like Best Buy. ...

"It's a pretty phenomenal product -- one of the 10 most powerful technologies released this year," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "This is revolutionary. For a hundred bucks, you get a product that will never become obsolete. You get ...

"This is a market of very big data. That's a fairly unique market that is defined by speed as well as capacity," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times. "The data has to be very well protected and it has a unique storage requirement for quick access. Isilon will fit with EMC, since EMC is a major storage company."

Last week was an interesting week, with increasing coverage of the Oracle vs. SAP trial and word out that Larry Ellison had put a bounty out on HP's new CEO Leo Apotheker so his attorneys could chew him out on the stand for taking Larry's buddy's job. ...

"So far, I do think this is the best iPad alternative to be brought to the market," Rob Enderle, principal principal at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "The smaller screen does make it a little harder to type with, but it's still so much better than a smartphone screen that I doubt most users would care."

"Yes, and it may mean they are now incurring some of the economic costs related to their going into the server business, which resulted in stronger competitive positioning against them by companies like HP, Oracle, IBM, and Dell who were mostly neutral or even partners before," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group told the E-Commerce Times...

You may recall that even though this is a technology column, I did predict that Nancy Pelosi would be a problem for Obama, and that both Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina would lose. A few of us have been discussing this, and what was missing in all three cases is leadership. ...

"They were wise to settle," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group told the E-Commerce Times. "A protracted trial would not have been good for Google. A company that uses people's private information does not look like success." Google is also facing privacy conce...

"They are clearly moving broadly in the software space," Rob Enderle, principal analyst for the Enderle Group, told CRM Buyer. "ATG gives them a nice adjunct to CRM and e-commerce. It brings in retail and puts them up on the Web." Oracle acquisition tally comes to nearly ...

"SAP's trying to contain the costs of the lawsuit by focusing on the judgment amount," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, said. "That is where it can make its strongest argument, rather than on the intellectual property issue, which it can't defend successfully against."

"This emphasis on the cloud is likely Ray Ozzie's signature contribution to Microsoft, and it looks like he actually did an impressive job of getting a lot of folks who don't normally work together to cooperate," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld...

This may be election week, but the big political battle isn't really the mid-term elections -- it's the drama going on between Oracle and HP with the unprecedented action of Oracle's CEO and founder calling HP's new CEO a thief in what appears to be a massive pre-emptive effort to discredit the man. However, like the elections, I think this is mostly smoke to cover up other problems Oracle has, and that's what I'll focus on this political week.

"Microsoft's biggest strength is Windows. They're doing a yeoman's job," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times. "Office 2010 has done very well. In a slow IT year, they've performed surprisingly well." More to Come...

"Supercomputing is where most of the cutting-edge work is done -- aeronautical research, automotive research, there's hardly a single industry where work isn't conducted with supercomputers," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld.

The next Nook "could be another version of the Pan-Digital Novel," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "If Barnes & Nobel go that route, they'd find it easier to bring a new product to market, and it's fairly cheap," he added It's not as if...

Unfortunately, I think I'm part of a group that is becoming extinct. Regardless of which party holds office in the U.S., my true hope is for its success, because I have this twisted view that if we have successful president, we'll have a better quality of life. Unfortunately, both of the U.S. parties seem to be competing as to which can screw up the country more effectively and, at the moment, the Democrats are winning, largely because they control government. ...

The network resistance to Google may be a result of how Google typically obtains content, suggested Rob Enderle, principal of the Enderle Group. "The problem is that Google has been cavalier with how they deal with other people's intellectual property," he told the E-Commerce...
