Dilbert Gets Windows Phone 7, the US Gets the Three Stooges

Eylül 9, 2025 • technewsworld.com

The two things I found particularly interesting last week were the continued focus on the U.S. government’s inability to live within its means and Scott Adams, the father of Dilbert, accepting the Windows Phone 7 challenge. The first continues to piss me off because both sides seem to be unable to grasp the need to…

Whine, Whine, Whine … Oh, RATs!

Eylül 9, 2025 • technewsworld.com

Last week was kind of an amazing week. Google’s chief counsel earned himself a new title: chief whining officer. He tried to blame Microsoft, Apple and Oracle (missed EMC) as companies that were colluding to force Google to stop stealing other people’s stuff. Google’s whiny argument made me wonder if anyone over there actually reads…

Why Video Conferencing Sucks

Eylül 9, 2025 • technewsworld.com

I’ve been covering video conferencing (now often called “telepresence”) products since the late 80s and saw my first offering in the mid-60s as a child at Disneyland. Over the years, product wave after product wave has come to market with the promise of the next big thing in telecommunications only to fail to meet even…

Birth of Googorola, Rebirth of Compaq, Death of RIM

Eylül 9, 2025 • technewsworld.com

Last week’s announcement of Google’s plans to acquire Motorola — Googorola — created a massive change for Android licensees. They are now looking for alternatives, tossing the biggest smartphone platform into flux and increasing the interest in what will happen to RIM — with specific emphasis on its QNX platform. As if that weren’t enough,…

Steve Jobs’ Exit: The Day the Magic Died

Eylül 9, 2025 • technewsworld.com

It is amazing to me the number of people I know who are basically saying Steve Jobs (some wonderful quotes from him here) leaving Apple will not change Apple. Most saw what Apple was like with Jobs, have seen that no similar company has been able to repeat what Apple has done over the last…

The Insane Month of August: So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Goodbye!

Eylül 9, 2025 • technewsworld.com

We have crazy months from time to time, but August will likely go down in history as one of the biggest tech news months of any year. From the torpedoing of Android by Google, to the off-again, on-again TouchPad sales, to the departure of Steve Jobs, to the slashing of Oracle’s US$1.3 billion settlement, to…

Passion Is the Thin Line Between Success and Failure

Eylül 9, 2025 • technewsworld.com

Carol Bartz got fired last week — the Yahoo Board handled it badly, and she went ugly. Steve Ballmer is also seen as a failure both inside and outside Microsoft, and it is widely held that the only reason he hasn’t been fired is that he and his best friend, Bill Gates, own the Microsoft…

That Tired Old Computer Could Be a Neat Media Streamer

Eylül 9, 2025 • technewsworld.com

One antidote to escalating household budgets is to cut utility services. However, dropping trash pickup and dumping your garbage in neighbors’ receptacles in the middle of the night probably wouldn’t go down too well in the community. Likewise, terminating your electricity supply won’t play too well with the family after the novelty wears off —…

Windows 8: Ballmer’s Vindication or Damnation

Eylül 9, 2025 • technewsworld.com

Carol Bartz recently showcased what happens to CEOs who don’t meet expectations — and, given Yahoo’s board may be fired as well, what can happen if a board acts too slowly. Steve Ballmer has been under fire for some time for underperforming as CEO, but one hit could change him from bozo to star if…
