HP probably can enjoy a couple more quarters of such gains before a revived Dell is ready to do battle again, Enderle Group Principal Analyst Rob Enderle said. The risk for Dell is that by then, it will face a steep uphill climb back to the top "Dell is committed to the turnar...
The low percentage of users taking full advantage of available technologies did not come as a surprise to Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group. "Much of what we have is very difficult to use, which is why there are so few omnivores," he told TechNewsWorld.

Nevertheless, the Microsoft-Yahoo deal may be less likely to happen now that word of the talks have been leaked, Enderle Group Principal Analyst Rob Enderle told the E-Commerce Times. "Clearly it looks like the two parties are serious about talking to one another," he said Suc...
"If the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) hadn't proven this doesn't work well (lawsuits), I would say yes with certainty," Rob Enderle, principal analyst for the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld.

Preloading Linux instead of Windows, means Dell will lose a lot of financial support from Microsoft, according to Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group. For each Windows PC or laptop Dell sells, Microsoft gives money back to Dell for marketing, he told LinuxInsider. Some of it may go back into marketing, Enderle explained, but Dell can do whatever it wants with the money...
The Barbie franchise is one of the most profitable in the history of the toy industry, Rob Enderle, principal analyst at Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld, but it clearly is not what it once was While international Barbie sales have risen some 2 percent, in the U.S. sales have...
OLPC is "hedging around" the probable truth: That it can't get governments to pay for the XOs and will have even more trouble doing so as the true cost of building them continues to become apparent, according to industry analyst Rob Enderle "That $175 still does not contain al...

I've been spending a lot of time talking to folks who want to try the Dell Linux solution. I'm getting the sense that we have all been looking at Linux on the desktop wrong, and that products likeLinspire are simply wrongheaded ...
Via's move likely will not make too many waves in the United States, where the chipmaker has traditionally struggled to get a foothold in a market dominated by huge rivals Intel and AMD, Rob Enderle, principal analyst for the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld "They've done som...
"It's unreasonable to assume any single company can move against a government," Rob Enderle, president and principal analyst at Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld "I think the court's going to have difficulty finding against Yahoo for obeying what in that geographical area of t...
"Google's power comes over the amount of control they are gaining with the advertising spend," Rob Enderle, principal analyst for the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times. "Google realizes that the future isn't in people buying things -- the future is undoubtedly feeding off of the advertiser, so in effect you make money off of everything that's sold."
