Lots of Interesting Quotes:
"The list focuses on Microsoft's rivals in a narrow market segment. For example, it listed Wind River Systems Inc. as an enemy, because it was outselling Microsoft in a small but strategically crucial market for operating-system software for non-PC devices. In the list, a Microsoft manager weighs whether licensing restrictions for the company's Windows NT source code should be waived for 13 smaller software firms." Post #5506
"But why would one who kowtows before the splendor of the Emerald Throne want to face the dangers of the high snowy peaks in the Wind River Range with Jerry Fiddler and his ragtag band of barbarians?" (Speaking of the next CEO coming from MSFT) Post 5417
"Before the introduction of WindView, embedded software developers could spend weeks or months debugging a section of code by stepping through each line to find a programming error that would lead to timing or performance problems. There was no way to verify the code's dynamic behavior. WindView eliminated this problem and for the first time enabled developers to actually see how their code performed. WindView for Automotive brings this power to OSEK-based products,'' said Curt Schacker, vice president of marketing for Wind River Systems....''BMW Group has played a significant role in the definition of the OSEK standard so we are pleased to see Wind River including support for OSEK in such a valuable tool as WindView,'' said Neil Robson, BMW Group tools manager. ''OSEK-capable tools will undoubtedly allow our developers to more easily and efficiently examine and analyze the operation of the embedded control unit software.''5421
"The greatest growth driver of them all is the rapid public acceptance of the Internet. The volume of Internet commerce is estimated by IDC research to increase from $12 billion in 1997 to more than $400 billion in 2002," said Corrigan. He continued to describe how much of the focus has been on the use of the Internet as seen by the enormous valuations of the "dot com" companies. These valuations are the predictors of the continuation of traffic growth which will demand infrastructure growth. He added, "the electronic highway is paved with silicon chips." 5419
"....IDC currently projects that worldwide (Internet) appliance shipments will grow from 5.9 million units in 1998 to over 55.7 million units in 2002, representing a 76% compounded annual growth rate." Post # 4904
"Intel executives have said selling networking and communications gear will be the next growth engine for the 31-year-old chipmaker." Post #4926
"Concludes one observer: "1998 was the year everyone realized Microsoft won't destroy Wind River." Forbes 4/5/99 Post #4595
"...These "smart appliances" have been the talk of technology fans and visionaries since the earliest days of the Internet. Now they are becoming a consumer reality." Post #5076
