If there’s a sector that understands seasonal swings, or balancing peaks and valleys of demand against its capacity, it’s likely the travel industry. Either through booking of holiday travel or checking departures at the onset of a storm, airlines constantly manage spikes of compute demand...

“Technology is about enabling human potential.” Maybe you’ve heard this truism from Michael Dell before. It gets to the heart of why there’s that constant drive to make the effort to develop new tools and improve old ones. Technology should make us more effective in our work and...

My father was a cold war veteran. He worked for the U.S. government during the innovative period of the 1970s and 1980s when telecommunications first moved from mechanical to electronic switches and then made the tremendous leap from analog to digital.

Customers bring their laptops everywhere, but sometimes that flexibility means their systems end up in a precarious position on the edge of a counter, a table, a shelf, etc. And if the laptop falls, the impact can lead to data loss that no customer wants to face. While we can't prevent a fall from...

Last month when I was out in the Bay Area for our launch, I stopped by the offices of salesforce.com . I visited with some folks that I used to work with in a past life and then grabbed some time with salesforce’s VP of product marketing, Sean Whiteley. Here is what Sean had to say: Some...

As part of the Cloud ISV partner program we announced last month, we are working with “big data” player Aster Data . When I was out for our launch a few weeks back, I met up with Mayank Bawa , CEO and co-founder of Aster Data. We got together in my hotel lobby and talked about Aster Data...

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from my 29 years of working with computers, it’s that technology advances and changes at exponentially increasing rates over time. I remember when I first started working with OEM customers in 2001, and the biggest issue for us was getting enough ISA...

At the beginning of the new year our thoughts often reflect on the year gone by and our goals for the year ahead. Some of my goals are personal, like eating more healthily and getting to the gym a little more often, but others a re very much skills and personal development based. I’m pleased to...

You might think that after two full days of keynotes, breakout sessions, events and meetings at Oracle OpenWorld it would be hard to excite a convention hall full of business and IT leaders, but Michael Dell had just the right formula with: A compelling vision - Redirect IT dollars from management...

Oracle OpenWorld is in full swing and things are exciting here in San Francisco. If you’re here, be sure to stop by the booth and say hi, see a demo, listen in on a presentation, enter to win one of the new Dell Latitude Z portable notebooks and catch one of the many breakout sessions with Dell...

I never feel like I get enough sleep … fighting to get six to seven solid hours in every night. However, my stresses are NOTHING compared to the noise and pressure IT admins, CIOs and CTOs deal with. Just look at our industry. From what I’ve read and learned so far, it seems Cisco and HP...

In most cases, electronics and liquids do not mix. We’ve all had incidents that prove this. I’ve knocked over a glass of wine on my keyboard. It died, but I like to think it died happy with a belly full of Bordeaux. When my toddler ran into a pool I dove after him with my smart phone in my...

Dell has made aggressive strides with the "greenness" of our enterprise products and solutions in an effort to help our customers meet their environmental and cost goals. Our hard work is paying off... According to a recent GreenFactor study released by Strategic Oxygen and Cohn & Wolfe...
