"Dell gets to leap-frog over the competition"-Sam Albert scott: Here is another interesting comment on the IBM deal from some guy named Sam Albert. ========================== Excerpts from The Indian Express. ....Sam Albert, president of Sam Albert Associates, said the deal was "a boon for the customer." Albert, speaking on CNNfn's"Trading Places", said the non-exclusive arrangement allows IBM to show "it's family jewels." "I think (IBM Chairman Louis Gerstner) has decided that exclusivity doesn't work in an open world," Albert said. "So consequently, the patents and the technology leadership that IBM hasdisplayed over…the last five years were always hidden away in the closet." Albert added that Gerstner believes "that if we can make more money with those family jewels, than the family will be wealthier." Meanwhile, Albert said, Dell"gets to leap-frog" over the competition. "Dell has made this deal so they can get a leg up on the technology,"Albert said, "and their machines will be the latest and greatest." Noting the non-exclusive aspect of the deal, Albert discussed the concept of "co-opetition," a term he coined in 1991, where companies that may go head-to-head will cooperate with each other when it's good for business. "This is a strategy whose time has come," he said..... financialexpress.com
