    IBM should be working with Apple's hardware designers (the same ones who just reinvented the workstation) to see what a disruptive new server might look like.

    I've been waiting for someone to bring up a new XServe. :)

    Does that mean that he's going to join the Polish Army ... or the Cub Scouts?

    On a probably not related note there's a very in-depth and multi-graph picture of Apple's business and financials here.

    It looks like the type of report Sog would be interested in.

    I don't know whether to be cautiously excited or underwhelmed… when I go to IBM's web site all I see (aside from all the icons with broken image links) is a mountain of ambiguspeak about collaboration and cloud and data analysis and other buzzwords that don't mean anything on their own. What kind of workers will be using iPads? What will they be doing with them? Is every workplace a custom project? What about industries using very specific software that runs on Windows? Is this intended to displace Windows terminals and servers?

    There's not enough information for a sub-average Joe like me to assess what it means.

    Work at becoming average, then you may understand.

    You know Watson can only answer you in the form of a question, right? ;) 


     

    Just like Australians?
