"It's not too wise to be outspoken about what you're doing, especially when it comes to cybersecurity, because folks will figure out ways around it," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld The information gathered by the program could help comp...

One of the things that bothers me about technology companies -- and I could start with Apple and end up with Google -- is that freedom is often part of what we give up when we buy their products. This can range from having to manage too many things, to being locked into a platform, to having no say about how our valuable personal information is used. We live in a world of increasing technology slavery, and since many of us are celebrating a day off to remember the establishment of freedom in the U.S., I thought this topic would be interesting. ...

"My understanding is that this rewrite made the Kin anywhere from one-and-a-half to three years late to market," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, pointed out. "This critically harmed the success of the device. Further, it likely made Verizon unhappy with Microsoft and probably pushed it to put even more support behind Google and Android."

"I think Google has realized that if it wants to stay in the China market it will have to cooperate with the government," Rob Enderle, a principal with the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times. "Microsoft went through the same phase in other parts of the world," he noted....

President Obama's approval rating is in the toilet, and his recent firing of his lead general in Afghanistan suggests his approval inside his administration is likely not much better than we see outside ...

Yet the report really doesn't seem to say much at all, according to Rob Enderle, principal of the Enderle Group "It reads like someone was being paid by the page," he told the E-Commerce Times. "It is long on promises of improvement but very short on metrics and milestones wit...

"This addresses one of the big problems Flash has faced -- that it hasn't run very well or at all on cellphones," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "It opens up an era of cheap computing for cellphones," he said "Now, the PC will have to ...

"Products in this class are unique and very distinctive," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "They aren't typically sold in high volume, but they let people get hold of something that otherwise might not exist." The W100 will be released i...

If you've been following the BP oil spill, you've seen that things haven't been going well for BP. The cost of the cleanup will likely bankrupt the firm, leaving the U.S. and individuals to pick up the slack. So, rather than assuring that doesn't happen, a bunch of rocket scientists, and I'm being sarcastic, have decided to speed up the bankruptcy by driving a boycott. ...

"If there aren't compelling games the hardware won't matter because no one will buy them," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, pointed out. "Nintendo's pulling from titles that worked in the past, to try and revive the Wii, but, given that the Wii largely sold on the strength of the hardware and its sports games, I don't think there's a good match here."

"This comes on top of an aging game platform, but there isn't much major stuff going on in this segment at the moment, and there are a lot of Xboxes installed and in use," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld "While the Kinect may not expand ...

"Given that the entertainment and devices division was just blown up, one wonders how well Microsoft will deliver Natal," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld The iGames Cometh...

I played with a number of titles, including "How Google Is the New Standard Oil," "Google the new Slave Master," and "Should Google be Nationalized or Regulated?" I chose this one because it would both get your attention and address the fact that Google is taking advantage of all of us, no matter how powerful, except those who live in Turkey and China. ...

"If folks get a strong positive experience on Google search compared to Bing and Yahoo, Google could get back some of the people it has lost to those search engines," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "As the dominant vendor, Google just has to create the impression of adequate progress to hold on to users, and Caffeine does that at the very least," he added...

"This will add fuel to the Apple fire," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld. "Apple has for a long time complained that one of the primary problems with Flash is that it's insecure and unreliable, and this will add to that argument." Jobs ma...

Watching BP try to plug the biggest oil spill in history while staging photo ops for the media feels like watching a new definition of evil unfold -- until the realization sets in that we're likely watching the death of a company. ...

If the Financial Times report is accurate, it's possible that Google's blaming Microsoft as a cover story for its plans to move its in-house computers over to its Chrome operating system, Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld Why Microsoft's D...

Rob Enderle, founder and principal analyst at Enderle Group, puts the shoe on the other foot for the search company and its own negative publicity issues. "This would be like Microsoft blocking Google search internally because of privacy concerns," Enderle said "It was one thi...

Last week, Apple passed Microsoft in market capitalization for a number of reasons. I agree with Gary Marshall, who argues in "Apple beats Microsoft? Not so fast, Fanboys" that the two companies aren't even in the same race. I'd even add that the only reason Apple moved ahead in valuation is because we don't count stock owned by employees, and Bill alone has around US$40 billion of that. ...

"OLPC made an impressive number of mistakes, from oversetting expectations to not understanding that kids in developing countries couldn't service their own hardware, to what appeared to be a complete lack of understanding of business fundamentals," Rob Enderle, principal analyst at the Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld...
