  • Two Startup Acquisitions and What They Mean Posted 1 days ago
    I've previously highlighted both Cloud startups and Big Data startups that struck me as having a unique value proposition for enterprise customers. As the IT world continues to rapidly evolve, it is fascinating to see what types of technologies are emerging and how these new technologies will change the face of enterprise IT.

  • What are the Top 10 PCs on the Market? Posted last month
    Although there has been much doom and gloom in the media lately about the future of the PC, the fact remains that approximately 80 million PCs will still be sold this quarter.

    If you follow the technology industry, you are probably aware that HP - like Dell - has been struggling to stay relevant as sales of mobile tablets and smartphones continue to surge while the traditional PC market shrinks. IBM, for example, long ago made the transition from being primarily a PC vendor, and HP also needs to find some way to do the same thing.
