More and more, engineers, developers and designers are being asked to work from a remote site or customer location, and lugging around a workstation isn't their idea of a good time, industry analyst Rob Enderle told TechNewsWorld. "However, because these environments are often hostile and the data on the machines critical, increasingly we are seeing the use of hardened -- ruggedized -- products to address these problems," he said...
I spend a lot of time listening to lots of folks complain that they don't have a choice, that big, bad Microsoft has come in and made their lives a living hell and that someone should do something about it. If you are one of those folks, today is your lucky day. I'm going to start telling you how to fix this problem. In this week's column, I address the "other" platforms. Next week, my column will be about how to use Microsoft products successfully...
Recently, a letter from the Linux community to SCO supposedly addressed the concerns SCO has created in the industry about open-source software ...
Linux remains overmatched in the 32-bit world on the desktop. There is just too large a base of Windows users and related applications for Linux to dominate the market in a reasonable period of time. However, transitions breed change, and the industry is about to take a big step into the 64-bit world, where the playing field is either level or actually might favor Linux...
Industry analyst Rob Enderle confirmed that Microsoft is hoping to make it clear to enterprises that their investments in Windows and Office are highly valuable -- not only as productivity tools as traditionally used, but also as platforms for more customized offerings. "If t...
Still, not all users will be so stubborn in the face of legal action, according to industry analyst Rob Enderle. "Some will stop, some will be safe because of where they live or who they are, and some will find safer ways to do this," he told the E-Commerce Times. Regardless, "it will reinforce the message that this is theft and comes with risk."
step out of the box and quickly provide an acceptable solution. This last tactic would do the most in terms of enabling Microsoft to hold its position and perhaps even kill the trend. But it would require the company to step sharply away from its current platform and assemble or acquire something much more like Unix. Windows 2005, also known as Longhorn, might be that product, but two years is a lifetime in this business -- and it isn't clear that the company even has two months. When governments start setting strict standards, there is cause to be concerned that the market might become hostile to most vendors. When governments start building products in a segment, it might be time to pack the bags and look for another industry. Rob Enderle, a TechNewsWorld columnist, is the Principal Analyst for the Enderle Group, a company founded on the concept of providing a unique perspective on personal technology products and trends. ...
Microsoft's decision to publish the warnings underscores its tenuous position with regard to the security of its products, which are a favorite target of hackers because of their ubiquitous and high-profile nature, industry analyst Rob Enderle told the E-Commerce Times. "If t...
The other day I was asked what the odds were that SCO would win against IBM. On the basis of how the two parties were behaving, I offered a range of between 55 and 65 percent. I've spent a lot of my life watching litigation, and I believe that you can better tell the outcome by trying to determine what the parties believe and how believable they are than if you just try to dig through their rhetoric...
"Actually, Seagate isn't the only one working on this," said industry analyst Rob Enderle. "Maxtor also has a line of drives targeted at AV types of implementations, and both vendors appear to agree that this is a growth market." ...
"People don't like product activation," said industry analyst Rob Enderle. "However, vendors can't afford to provide software for free, and piracy has become a significant issue for them." Say, for example, a user installs the software on an older system, then upgrades to a ne...

"The Sony technology is impressive," industry analyst Rob Enderle told TechNewsWorld. "And they will be battling with other technology initiatives like Foveon's X3 technology for the lucrative future of the digital photography market." ...

It is easy to see the many potential applications for this kind of technology. "Initially, this kind of display is best for creating virtual prototypes that can be viewed from all sides with huge design implications from product to architecture," Enderle Group analyst Rob Enderle told TechNewsWorld.
"It remains favored over rotating media because it is more durable, lighter and generally consumes less power," industry analyst Rob Enderle told TechNewsWorld. "CompactFlash was expected to [have replaced] most other media types by now, but issues over price and useful life have relegated it to areas like music and pictures, where it plays best."
Forrester analyst Rob Enderle told the E-Commerce Times that the open-source initiatives recently implemented by many countries might hinder sales of proprietary products like Microsoft's -- unless those products also provide access to the source code He noted that a downward ...
Even today, some analysts still warn against using Flash. Others, like Rob Enderle, a research fellow at Forrester, say that although Flash was originally used too often, the technology has moved into the mainstream Enderle said Flash is very effective in sales situations in w...
"By using the PDA acronym rather than the full name, 'personal digital assistant,' we often lose track of where this class of product is going," Forrester research fellow Rob Enderle told TechNewsWorld. He said he believes the next step in the evolution of handheld technologies will follow Garmin's iQue in integrating GPS location and navigation capabilities...
"Microsoft is doubling back to what made it the dominant company in operating systems," Forrester Research analyst Rob Enderle told the E-Commerce Times. "If it makes the best products, it will be the company that people choose." ...
