Hype Rears Its Ugly Head. Again.

Hype Rears Its Ugly Head. Again. 02/01/2005 09:07 PM

I wasn't at the conference, so I can't comment on the specifics that Jack Shafer references, but I'm finding it hard to disagree with anything that's written in this Slate column. Many of the first bloggers, in addition to being geeks, were trained in journalism or writing, and that pedigree...

JVC TH-SW5 Home Theater System with
Wireless Rears
08/03/2004 09:03 AM

jvc_th_sw5.jpg image

JVC has a new set of home theater systems out in Japan that transmit sound to the read speakers wireless via radio; a radio that, unfortunately, broadcasts on the 2.4GHz spectrum -- the same frequency as Wi-Fi. The TH-SW5 otherwise looks like a solid system, but perhaps another model at 5GHz or 900MHz would be optimal. Or maybe -- stay with me -- user selectable frequency. There aren't plans to release it here, though, to my knowledge, but I'd hate to be the Japanese consumer who has to choose between their network and their speakers.

My dream wireless speakers receive audio and power through a fixed microwave beam. If you couldn't navigate through the matrix of flesh-searing invisible conduits, you wouldn't be worthy to watch the extended edition of Groundhog Day.

Head-to-Head: Microsoft, Oracle, CA 05/25/2004 09:46 AM
Microsoft's desktop operating systems are 31% of revenues; office and stand-alone applications are 29%; and server platforms are about 25%. At CA, subscription license revenue generated about 45% of the company's $3.1 billion in fiscal 2003 revenues, with about another 38% coming from maintenance and royalties. CA's Unicenter product is a market leader in systems management software, running neck-and-neck with that of International Business Machines Corp. (IBM ; A+; CreditWatch Stable; A-1), each possessing about a 15% market share. Oracle's database averages about 80% of total license revenues, while applications account for 20%. Framingham, Mass.-based International Data Corp., a market research and consulting company, shows Oracle's share of the market for object and relational database management software slipped just below 40%, with IBM reaching a total of 33.6%, and Microsoft at 11.1% of the market.
