Engineering, design, materials, and service just got better. What’s the impact on organizations like Symantec (virus), Gartner/Forrester (advisory), HP (printing), and Microsoft (operating systems)?

In contrast to the seedy and classless drama engineered by James and Gilbert, this weekend marked the passing of Bob Sheppard. That’s one definition of leadership. Once again, classless.

Ford did not think up the combustion engine or automobiles, Edison did not think up incandescent light bulbs, Larry Page did not think up search engines.

Also worth noting is that there is certainly a difference between value engineering and arbitrary cost containment. Let me make my position very clear…design absolutely matters. If you try hard enough you can find an aberration in just about any rule, but in the case of design it will simply be just that…an aberration.
