Ubuntu Remains Best Linux Distribution for Desktops | www.eweek.com

Linux is now a viable alternative for a desktop operating system.  It works cleanly with most modern and not so modern hardware.  It comes pre-packaged so someone less than a genius can install it.  Why hasn’t it taken the world by storm?  Largely because there isn’t a sufficient driver.

Holiday shoppers like Apple and Dell | apple20.blogs.fortune.cnn.com

The short answer is – yes!  Both enterprises and consumers seem unlikely to spend much on PCs this holiday season.  Nonetheless, bad times can work to the long-term advantage of vendors if they are properly positioned going in.

Negative Publicity May Dampen Offshore Outsourcing

November 7, 2008

Pfizer Accused of Using U.S. Workers to Train Foreign Replacements | www.eweek.com

There is an increasing backlash in the US to offshore outsourcing, particularly the large deals typically outsourced to large Indian providers.  The new political climate may embolden displaced US workers to complain more loudly, and Washington to listen more.   Even if little concrete action is taken the negative publicity could impact deals.

Windows 7 = Vista SP3?

November 3, 2008

Windows 7 Upgrade Chaos Looms | www.informationweek.com

It appears Microsoft has listened to the complaints about Vista and is addressing them with a more-compatible, leaner and easier-to-use Vista/Windows 7.  Windows 7 looks like it could also be named Vista SP3.  This is exactly what enterprises are waiting for and if Microsoft delivers it in late 2009 as expected the adoption rate among enterprises should be very high.

Polycom ups telepresence ante | telephonyonline.com

Several factors are converging to make video conferencing more commonly used.  Improved technology, increased network bandwidth, and both the cost and effort/time invested in traveling are all factors.  Telepresence provides the “halo effect” for video conferencing, similar to the effect the Corvette has for the overall Chevrolet product line.

Oracle’s Fusion Apps in 2010?

October 13, 2008

Oracle Fusion apps: Is 2010 delivery too little, too late? | www.networkworld.com

Oracle’s Fusion Apps have the potential to be a “game-changer” in the ERP market.  Although Fusion likely won’t be delivered when initially expected, and will instead trickle out into the marketplace in pieces during 2009 and 2010, that is soon enough.  Details on schedule and content are vague or non-existent, but early indications suggest competitors should be concerned.

Offshore Outsourcers Hurt by Financial Meltdown

Offshore Outsourcing: What Role Will the Recession Play? | www.cio.com

As the economy contracted many thought that would actually help offshore outsourcing, as the effort to reduce costs would drive more business their way.  Judging from early returns, that doesn’t appear to be the case.  On the contrary, this may well be the beginning of a sea change in the overall offshore outsourcing market.
