I kind of felt sorry for Steve Jobs last week because he got a raw deal. Folks seemed to be expecting an iPhone-like announcement and instead got nice improvements on existing products and a wonderful new laptop ...
The move better positions Sun to promote the open source LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) stack, which is used to run dynamic Web sites, to those larger corporations that are sometimes reticent to use free software, said Rob Enderle, principal analyst with the Enderle Group. However, the purchase won't immediately create an open source product that soothes corporate concerns. In fact, Enderle said, it may take some time before Sun sees the benefit from this deal...
Still, whether Intel -- long considered a bellwether because its chips are a foundational component in everything from servers and PCs to consumer gadgets -- provided any evidence of a recession is hard to read from the results, Enderle Group Principal Analyst Rob Enderle told the E-Commerce Times. Earlier in the week, IBM buoyed hopes for a quick recovery with a strong quarterly report and an upbeat outlook...
The price cuts might have made a difference if Toshiba had made them during the holidays, but now they're too little, too late, Rob Enderle, president and principal analyst with the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld "Price cuts won't do it now," Enderle said. "If they had been...
CES is an incredible show, but I was both sad and happy to see the final keynote Bill Gates gave at CES, both because I like Bill and probably won't see him personally again, and because he is moving to something that he really wants to do, I'm happy for him. I also think this CES signals a major change for Microsoft that is part positive and part negative...
"Both Google and Microsoft have the resources to buy into markets and flesh out offerings or correct initiatives that aren't particularly competitive," Enderle Group Principal Analyst Rob Enderle told the E-Commerce Times. "In this case, Fast had good penetration in enterprise class companies but was struggling with the complexity of their offering and was being structured for a sale...
There are two mistakes a vendor can make that it may not be able to recover from. One is to build too many products, which stay in inventory and prevent future sales; and the other is to have too few products and lose out of sales as a result ...
"I think the consumers are sitting back and waiting for something less risky that won't make the consumers look stupid in front of friends and family," Rob Enderle, principal analyst for the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. Plus, existing up-converting DVD players that boost standard DVDs into near-HD quality are good enough for most consumers, Enderle noted, especially when those consumers already have large libraries of standard DVDs...
"File corruption on a server simply shouldn't happen," said Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group. "They haven't determined why yet, and given the Windows Home Server is a spin on an existing enterprise class server platform, it probably has to do with a unique situation that exists in the home...
Tomorrow we start the New Year, and for those of you who aren't still in line to buy a Nintendo Wii, it is looking to be a good one ...
Google has run into a briar's patch of thorny problems similar to those confronted by many large companies over the years, said Rob Enderle, principal analyst at The Enderle Group "Google is still, for all its size, a very young company and will likely make some impressive mis...
It's Christmas Eve, and you're probably thinking more about what you are going to open tomorrow than anything else, so I was tempted to keep this light ...
"Typically, when companies make a move like this -- bringing in someone from a large company that's also a potential large customer -- they will try to make a large play for large accounts and use the stature of the new CEO as way to do that," Rob Enderle, president and principal analyst with the Enderle Group, told LinuxInsider...
While the music labels and artists are happy about the China ruling, Enderle Group Principal Analyst Rob Enderle found the case laughable, asserting that China should focus its energy on the factories that continue to flood the world market with pirated CDs, DVDs and other items...
"This is a big push towards standards compliance," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at The Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "IE is the product that defines how Web sites are built, so its move to standards should be, and initially has been, very well received." Passing the Aci...
"Microsoft is really stepping up its advertising efforts," Enderle Group Principal Analyst Rob Enderle told the E-Commerce Times. Earlier in the month, the company announced a deal to provide ads to MSNBC's Web sites as well as a major initiative around mobile display advertising...
"This certainly creates a painful problem, since the update is going out to millions of people," Rob Enderle, president and principal analyst with the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld "Unfortunately, there's no easy way around it," Enderle added. "As we've found in the past, ...
One of the things you learn quickly when you work for a large company is how well executives can cover up failure. I think, to a large extent, that is what is happening with Linux ...
Indeed, "this is a very valid complaint," asserted Rob Enderle, president and principal analyst with the Enderle Group If true, "this is a direct conflict of interest, and should have come with full disclosure -- she should have recused herself from the start," Enderle told th...
