Why might Apple be allowing their new MacOS Leopard to run inside a Virtual Machine?

November 1, 2007

Apple to Allow Virtualization of Leopard | db.tidbits.com

If Apple does indeed allow for their MacOS to run inside a Virtual Machine then people will no longer have to buy Apple computers to run MacOS.  This could open the way for Apple's MacOS to be used inside corporations who normally do not want to spend too much money on "computers that look pretty". It also allows Apple to participate in the next wave of desktop virtualization. Are they starting to make their MacOS a separate business?

VMware had a great 3rd quarter and their stock is way up, but can it last?

October 25, 2007

VMware Reports Third-Quarter Results | vmware.com

VMware has first mover advantage, but they are not alone in this "new" space of server virtualization. When will Microsoft enter this space? And if they do how will it impact VMware? Is VMware doing enough to stay ahead of the game?

XP will stay as long as there is a demand

October 1, 2007

Microsoft says to extend XP sales for five months | news.yahoo.com

Microsoft wants to force users to use Vista. Turning over IT systems to Vista is not necessarily what end user consumers want. Microsoft, although duly invested in selling updates for profit can not force IT departments to max out their software budgets on a new operating system when the old one works fine. Not this year in any case.

SOA is a Journey, Not a Destination

SOA Market Forecasted at $15.4B by 2013 | www.gridtoday.com

Apple's iPhone quick price drop was a bad decision and their refund methodology compounded the error.

September 24, 2007

Apple Legend Woz Blasts iPhone Price Drop And Refund Policy | www.crn.com

iPhones were too expensive: Apple did not get the pricing correct at the beginning. Apple made a bad decision limiting the service to one carrier - A T and T. Apple is making poor marketing decisions which may not only cost the company sales in the short term but may have a negative impact on the good faith image of the organization.

Credit for IPhone

Steve Jobs Offers Rare Apology, Credit for iPhone | online.wsj.com

Tthey are hoping that this credit and reduction in price will increase sales since retail session begins in fourth quarter.  They made a mistake in the pricing and now they are trying correct it.  I will be curious to see if the pricing drops again in December.  My opinion is that it will not.  I think they will prepare for retail season and hope for the best.

Google's gPhone and Apple's iPhone a preview of what is to come? The next PC revolution? How are enterprise data centers influenced by this consumer stuff?

September 20, 2007

Getting Inside Google's gPhone | www.businessweek.com

The Personal Computer (PC) created a revolution, but the new generation (our kids) will not be using it. Instead they will use a Personal Communicator (PC): part phone, part instant messenger, part computer. What will happen when the consumer desktops and laptops will be replaced by the next PC? Will this change the desktop as we use it at our work? Why is the Google phone and the iPhone so important?

Microsoft Beware, You Can be Replaced... Eventually

September 12, 2007

After Ubuntu, Windows Looks Increasingly Bad, Increasingly Archaic, Increasingly Unfriendly | www.sys-con.com

The implications are clear. Even though Microsoft isn't shivering in fear as of yet, there are viable options out there. The only issue is these options are not marketed like MS Office and Windows.
