Quite a few companies ordsprog

Quite a few companies are trying to sell [distributed computing] under the p-to-p banner. While I think it is a nice idea, it is nothing new, and I think [United Devices] might have trouble finding people willing to pay for it.

[Not everyone shares Prince's enthusiasm for the synergistic potential between peer-to-peer file sharing and distributed computing.] Quite a few companies are trying to sell [distributed computing] under the p-to-p banner, ... While I think it is a nice idea, it is nothing new, and I think [United Devices] might have trouble finding people willing to pay for it.

We believe that there's going to be a complete landscape of devices in the future that will enable people to access the Internet, send e-mail and do computing. I think it is absolute folly to say that any one of these devices will serve the needs of the entire industry and all markets.

It was really nice, obviously as time goes along you want to get that, ... We had no idea what was going on, so we wanted to do it ourselves, and it was particularly nice to get the first-place banner and get the Ivy League championship all at once.

It's really a great idea that has been realized past its prime; it's like today somebody coming out with a Ford Model T. These (new) devices are very powerful in terms of computing capabilities; they can look at regular Web sites and work just fine. Pex Tufvesson started Livet.se.

The United Devices Grid Visionary Award honors those who have led the way in understanding, implementing, and advocating grid computing as an enterprise platform. That certainly describes Jeff Mathers.

At some point the sales of non-PC computing devices are going to exceed those of PCs, at least in terms of units, and no way is Intel going to have the kind of market dominance it has in the PC market--there are just so many different types of devices, standards, and vendors.

Sun released Java to the public in 1995, and today, Java powers more than 1.5 billion cell phones, 700 million PCs and millions of other devices. However, computing is no longer just about PCs, laptops or even cell phones, but rather about the promise of pervasive computing — which will largely be enabled by sensors. This announcement will allow Java — just as it did with cell phones and the Internet — to play a pivotal role in enabling the coming wave of sensor driven computing.

So the vision of Microsoft is pretty simple. It changed a couple years ago. For the first 25 years of the company, it was a personal computer on every desk and in every home. And it was a very good vision; very rare for a company to be able to stick with something like that for 25 years. The reason we changed it was simply that it became acceptable. . . . And so as we stepped back and looked at what we were trying to do with the programming model, turning the Internet into the fabric for distributed computing, getting your information to replicate in a very invisible way so that it was available to you everywhere, thinking of this programming model spanning all the different devices, we changed to the mission statement we have now, which is empowering people through great software anytime, any place and on any device.

Over a three-year period we'll look to invest the fund in roughly 40 companies across a set of industry sectors that include mobile computing, Web-enabled software, biotech, medical devices, semiconductors, and then an area that we are highlighting this time that we call green tech, which is new energy sources and things like that.

That was just like finding money on the street, really, because they were so easy to sell. People would take the papers right out of your hands, it seemed, ... It was always encouraging to have a quick sell of your newspapers.

We found that decisions are better when people make them collectively in small groups. Also, it's important to get the right people involved, and all the right people aren't always present. So we needed a way to do collaboration among distributed people on distributed systems.

The first Pilot organizer was such a runaway success, even we were a bit surprised. But in one of my first conversations with Jeff Hawkins he convinced me that the future of personal computing -- REAL personal computing -- was going to be in these highly mobile devices. That's why he designed the Pilot. And that vision still holds today. The Pilot and its many Palm successors have become an extension of millions of people's lives -- keeping them connected to their work and home, letting them do email and browse the web on the go, allowing them to keep all their favorite files, music, photos and videos with them. I'm enormously proud of what we've accomplished, and I'm even more excited about what's yet to come.

Where Adidas might have trouble getting retail shelf space because they sell less in the United States, now they can ride Reebok's coattails.

I don't think anyone has a good way of finding the cost of an event. Most companies don't really do the proper postmortem, or, if they do, they have no idea what to include in the analysis.
