Google + Salesforce – Should Microsoft Worry?

April 16, 2008

Google, Salesforce.com Integrate Apps | www.redherring.com

The integration of Google Apps into Salesforce.com’s products can only help both companies, so it is certainly not going to help Microsoft.  On the other hand, this level of integration has been available for quite a while between Microsoft’s Outlook and ERP solutions, so it’s not likely to have any dramatic impact on Microsoft.

New Windows in 2009?

April 8, 2008

Will Microsoft deliver Windows 7 next year? | www.infoworld.com

The best course for Microsoft is to release the next OS ahead of schedule and write Vista off as an interim step.  If Microsoft can get a solid Windows 7 released in the middle of 2009 they will retain their hold on the desktop market.  If not, they risk losing a large percentage of that market.

Seagate and Western Digital Should Worry About Flash!

March 18, 2008

Flash vs. hard drive battle heats up | bigtech.blogs.fortune.cnn.com

The only thing preventing flash memory from taking over the notebook market is price.  With prices on flash currently in free-fall, that barrier is likely to be reduced or removed in the next few months.  Seagate and Western Digital’s patents are not likely to protect their market share.

March 7, 2008

Nearly Half Of U.S. Tech Companies Outsource Offshore | www.informationweek.com

Many technology companies depend on cheap offshore labor to control their labor costs.  As the dollar continues to weaken those costs are escalating.  Similarly, offshoring companies depend on selling services in the US, and the weakening dollar makes those services more expensive and will inevitably limit their revenue.
