I got the failwhale page several times in the past week. &#160;Seems to me to be pretty #fail that you can&#8217;t handle that relatively small of a load. &#160;This is the [...]]]></description>

If one of my underlying principles is that today&#8217;s IT is yesterday&#8217;s data processing (plus communications), then data&#8217;s been fairly well acknowledged to be old hat for IT professionals, right? We&#8217;re doing it wrong Take a look at your document management system (that&#8217;s if [...]]]></description>

Obviously, as a book reader, Apple could offer the Kindle up for comparison, and Steve could certainly make the case that ubiquitous connectivity would have to be better than that offered by [...]]]></description>
