Enderle Group principal analyst Rob Enderle told TechNewsWorld that this duo of thin clients is seemingly part of Microsoft's attempt to offer customers a highly targeted packaged product "The advantages to a thin client approach is they tend to be much more secure than a rich...
On Friday Apple released its "Tiger" operating system into the marketplace.Borrowing heavily from what we had seen in Longhorn (Microsoft's next version of Windows) last year, Tiger is an impressive piece of work. I'm not one of those who thinks that using a competitor is a bad idea, particularly if you can get it out first. You play this game to win and, as long as it's legal, in my book anything goes...
Apple currently enjoys a market position that they haven't had since the beginning of the PC era. I often wonder if the Microsoft folks chuckle about the problems Apple is having as a result, problems that Microsoft has enjoyed for some time ...
I've been looking back this week and recalling almost a decade ago when a little company called Netscape prematurely slapped Microsoft upside the head and by so doing better positioned Microsoft for the future. Granted, I'm sure Microsoft would have loved to avoid the related litigation that continues to this day, but were it not for Netscape, Microsoft would have missed the Internet badly and would have had some much tougher years than they did...
The question is not whether there is a market for data protection software, but whether or not Microsoft can compete against Veritas, NSI Software and EMC Legato NetWorker. But Rob Enderle, principal analyst of The Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld that Microsoft has realized it has to make a push...
With the passing of Pope John Paul the II comes an opportunity to look back -- as well as ahead -- at the kinds of technological changes that can occur in 30 years. In the late '70s we didn't have cell phones or GPS navigation systems; cloning people was the stuff of science fiction stories; and IBM was THE provider of technology to the world ...
"Unless it has to roll out immediately because the exposure is too great, then Microsoft aggregates and rolls out patches all at one time so folks can actually deploy them in one session," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld Focus on Securi...
Transmeta makes for an interesting Silicon Valley case study. The net of its announcement last week is that they will continue to be with us indefinably ...
With last week's release of the Sony PSP in the U.S. market stealing the spotlight from the ("old-news") Apple iPod and details of the XBox likely to emerge at the upcoming E3 gaming conference, it is time to take a real look at how gaming is driving the future of PC technology and entertainment ...
Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times that tech-oriented executives hoping to make a decent salary with strong benefits are increasingly attracted to more traditional software companies "As a company that is used to a more traditional s...
Rob Enderle, principal analyst with the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times that he doesn't expect the two sides to make peace anytime soon. The European Commission is seeking strong enforcement and Microsoft is seeking light enforcement, he said, and resolution may require another day in court...
"IM will have broad implications for the future of all communication from e-mail to phone calls," Enderle Group principal analyst Rob Enderle told the E-Commerce Times. "In a few years, we'll likely wonder what we did without it." Increased use of IM could have other implicati...
In San Jose, California, the city IT organization started an aggressive program to build the most advanced city hall in the state. The department's leaders thought they grasped the technology, and there wasn't a hot buzzword that was missed in the proposal. The local paper, The Mercury News, took an in-depth look at the bid, and the end result was an embarrassing investigation into city technology acquisition practices and a call for the resignations of a number of high-ranking officials. Meanwhile, the construction on the city hall was embarrassingly delayed. Further review indicated the city was overpaying by millions and had violated its own polices by single-sourcing to one vendor, Cisco...
I mentioned last week that I was expecting the other shoe to drop this week at the Game Developers Conference 2005. That shoe was the next generation of the Xbox game machine, and it dropped like an atomic bomb. The collateral damage from the resulting explosion could be extensive. It may even take out Apple, forcing the company to exit the PC business...
However, Enderle Group principal analyst Rob Enderle said making the deal work for all involved will be a "huge challenge" for IBM and Lenovo alike The deal has the best chance of succeeding, he said, if the new unit makes a clean break from IBM corporate culture, policies and...
Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld this not the first time Danger and T-Mobile have experienced performance issues. In a high-profile case last month, online thieves stole addresses, e-mail and images from the Sidekick of celebrity heiress Paris Hilton. The cause of the latest outage remains unknown...
Last week was a busy week. It started with the Intel Developer Forum and ended with an American Press Institute roundtable on the future of media. We'll cover the second event another week because there were two things I saw while at the Intel event that I believe are potentially market breakers. ...
Still, Yahoo could become a huge friend of the wireless industry if it can develop addictive games, according to Rob Enderle, chief analyst at the Enderle Group Mobile carriers love such games because users can become hooked and use up potentially lucrative calling time, Ender...
As we move well into the spring semester, more and more kids are thinking about life after college. Those that prepared wisely already know where their first jobs will be. Those that didn't may, at least for a while, need to get used to the question, "Do you want fries with that?" ...
This last month saw a number of dramatic changes, not the least of which was the involuntary departure of HP's CEO, Carly Fiorina, and the voluntary departure of her closest supporter, Alison Johnson, who was largely responsible for turning HP into a marketing powerhouse ...
