Your comment is applicable mainly to the enterprise. Most consumers do not rely on Exchange, SharePoint, or even Office. Moreover, few organizations are going to standardize on smartphones, tablets, and PCs; BYOD makes for...

I agree with the article. Windows 8 needs a game that could be the new solitaire. That game should be fun, educational, addictive and only require a finder. Guess what! There is such a game in the Windows 8 Store. It is...

It's not a question of seeing it in its proper context. It's a matter of recognizing that it's not the right tool for other contexts. I'm happy to use it in some environments. But I'm not going to replace my PC with a phone...

Not only that, Windows 7 was only one release earlier and one of the features was a push toward multimedia. Is a user with a home theater PC expected to leave the couch, walk up to the TV and slide his finger across it to...

The real benefit of cloud for these Enterprises will be that they can use it to fill the holes that come from operational or resource deficiencies. Have issues with maintaining IT assets? Great, outsource it to a cloud...

There are a whole lot of organizations and CIOs that really trust VMware for production work and are really skeptical of everything else out there. OpenStack is a nice fit for them, because it can be a bridge to ditching...

Personally, I find both the cattle/puppy and electricity analogies to be profoundly helpful in understanding (a) how many organizations and individuals fail to take advantage of the cloud (while still arguing they are "on...
