Oculus Rift and O2 Wear the Rose let us train with the England rugby team, you can too
When asked if you want to train with the England rugby team the second thought, after will I survive, is how? A few years of schoolboy rugby surely aren't enough to stand up to the nation's most finely tuned athletes? Before thinking too deeply and missing out, we agreed and were given a date to be at Twickenham and told to arrive with sports gear in the bag. Worrying.
On arrival we were met by England rugby captain Chris Robshaw, not someone we wanted to be tackled by, before being ushered forcefully off to the England changing room. Kit was laid out, in our case, at the seat of Mike Brown - man of the match in the last two England Six Nations games, no pressure then.
Once kitted we were told to stand before a coach who entered to rile us up. A lot of shouting later, both at us and as a huddled group, and we were taken out to face the paparazzi (read: dudes with cameras and high visibility jackets). We walked out of the tunnel right to the edge of the pitch. It was actually breath-taking - and that's without the thousands of people usually there to greet the England team.
Then we got down to it with an Oculus Rift headset and headphones. Suddenly, still pumped from the intro, we were on the field with the England rugby team. Looking around in the huddle the entire team was there talking about plays we were about to execute. Before we could take it all in we were running in a line with England's rugby greats.
We recieved the ball and couldn't help check about for a place to pass, even though we had no control over the pure video experience. Bam, we were tackled to the ground and actually couldn't help make a noise in the real world.
Next the ball was being kicked to us and as we looked up a little step to the right couldn't be resisted in the real world, again to no effect in the video experience. But the point was immersion. We were totally in that world with a 360-degree view of our surroundings.
We couldn't help ignore where we were supposed to look just to see if all the players were in character behind us - not one out of place.
When it came to removing the headset it felt like waking from a dream on a workday, we didn't want to stop. But while that was over the potential for future movie, gaming, training and fitness experiences was permanently placed in our minds. And this wasn't even the new HD version of Oculus Rift.
Then we had a mock television interview in which, as you can see in the video below, we were still reeling from the experience. And that's without even being really tackled. We have developed a new found respect for sportsmen doing interviews right after a game. For them and the makers of the Oculus Rift, of course.
If you want to "Wear the Rose" you can on its debut in the O2 blueroom at Twickenham Stadium for the England versus Wales match on Sunday 9 March. From April it will be available via Priority for O2 customers. Then it will be showcased in select O2 stores across the country from June, supporting England's tour of New Zealand this summer, and through O2 Touch Centres in July before a wider rugby club tour in the autumn.

Roger Ebert Net Worth: Roger Ebert was an American film critic, journalist and screenwriter who had a net worth of $9 million. Roger Ebert was born June 18, 1942 in Urbana, Illinois. His career began in 1966, writing for the Chicago Sun-Times' Sunday magazine. In 1975, he became the first film critic to win a Pulitzer Prize. That same year Ebert teamed up with fellow movie critic Gene Siskel on a television show where they debated the quality of the latest films. The show became a hit and Siskel and Ebert became household names. They worked together until 1999 when Siskel passed away due to complications of a surgery involving a cancerous brain tumor. In early 2002, Ebert was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer which was successfully removed. In 2003, he underwent surgery for cancer in his salivary gland, which was followed up by radiation treatment. He was again afflicted with cancer in 2006. In June of that year, he had surgery to remove cancerous tissue near his right jaw and just one week later he had a life-threatening complication when his carotid artery burst near the surgery site. He was confined to bed rest and was unable to speak, eat, or drink for a period of time, necessitating the use of a feeding tube. Ebert made his first public appearance since mid-2006 at Ebertfest on April 25, 2007. He was unable to speak, instead communicating through his wife. In March 2010, his health trials and new computerized voice were featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show. Ebert later proposed a test to determine the realism of a synthesized voice. In December 2012, Ebert was hospitalized with a fractured hip. On April 2, 2013, he announced that he would be taking a "leave of presence" from his duties because the hip fracture was determined to be cancerous and would require radiation treatment. On April 4, 2013, Roger Ebert lost his brave fight at the age of 70 when he passed away in Chicago as he was preparing to come home from the hospital. At the April 2014 Ebertfest, the Pulitzer Prize-winner was honored with a life-sized bronze statue outside the Virginia Theatre in Champaign, Illinois.

I have used the book to help me parent my daughter, and have to say that, while we don't tie her door shut we *do* have a portable stair-gate across her door at night so that if she wakes up she doesn't come into our room but stays in her bed and shouts us to her. This is because she doesn't lie still in our bed - she kicks and wriggles and no-one would get any sleep if she were in with us.
The section you refer to does sound old-fashioned now, but it is one part of one chapter, and all it offers is a suggestion for stopping a determined toddler from getting into the parents bed or having the run of the house. The whole idea is that the door can still be opened, but only a few inches. It's a last resort for parents who are desparate for a night's sleep. If you don't agree with it no-one is making you carry it out.

Microsoft permanently slashes price on struggling Surface Pro to $799Microsoft's Surface tablet lineup, which has thus far failed to gain traction against Apple's iPads, saw a permanent price cut this week, most notably among the high-end Surface Pro, which now sells for $100 less.
Microsoft's Surface Pro. | Source: Microsoft
The prices, which included the entry-level Surface Pro for $799, were initially enacted as a temporary measure set to expire on Thursday. But the Windows maker revealed to ZDNet that those prices are now permanent, and reduced prices have also expanded globally.
Microsoft, in a statement, attempted to portray the new prices as a win for the Surface lineup. But the company already took a $900 million charge on unsold Surface inventory earlier this year.
In July, Microsoft revealed that it had made only $853 million on the Surface product lineup in its first three months. That number was less than the write-down it was forced to take to adjust inventory, and also less than the $898 million Microsoft spent on an advertising campaign for Surface and Windows 8.
Under the new, permanent pricing, Microsoft is charging $799 for the 64-gigabyte Surface Pro with Windows 8. A 128-gigabyte version runs $899, though neither come with the keyboard accessory.
In comparison, Apple's iPad, which runs the iOS mobile operating system, starts at $499 for 16 gigabytes. For comparable capacities, the iPad still offers 64 gigabytes of storage for $100 less than Microsoft's Surface Pro, at $699, while the high-end 128-gigabyte iPad costs $799.
Beyond the Surface Pro, Microsoft has also knocked $50 off its Surface RT bundles, which now start at $399. The Touch Cover keyboard accessories are also now available for $40 less.

Apologetics Talk (Part 1) The Dead Sea Scrolls
Here is a proposed script for Apologetics Talk, a series of video teachings I hope to produce one of these days.
I started the Apologetics Talk Vlog to answer some of the many comments I've been getting on The Real Jesus videos.
In the past, my videos have been seen mainly by Christians. But now with YouTube I am excited that I've had tens of thousands of viewers, many of who are skeptics and non-believers. I wanted you to know that your comments have challenged me to go deeper and examine my own beliefs.
This is where I want to give back some reactions to the comments.
First, let's talk about the Dead Sea Scrolls.
This was the archaeological find of the 20th century, not only did it tell us some important facts about the ancient Judaism, but it also proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Hebrew scriptures we have today are exactly the same as the scriptures in the centuries before Jesus Christ and the Apostles.
Now some people still don't get this. For instance:
sirvega280 wrote:
The Dead sea scrolls don't prove anything that Peter Jennings "failed" to mention. The Jewish authorities that possess the Dead Sea Scrolls will not give the academic world access to the Dead Sea Scrolls so that they can analyze it themselves. The Jewish authorities will only tell us what it supposedly reads, and we are supposed to take their word for it, I guess. Or could it be that the Judeo-Christian community does not want us to find out anything that would undermine this religion?
I don't know where he got this information, but it is wrong.
Photos of the Dead Sea Scrolls have been available to everyone for study for about ten years on the Internet. These are now public documents.
The Dead Scrolls prove that the Bible hasn't changed in over 2000 years. The Hebrew scrolls of the Old Testament written before the time Christ are virtually identical to the Bible we have today.
Now for years, I've been writing in my articles in The Forerunner that the Dead Sea Scrolls prove the reliability and the unchanging quality and the unchanging quality of the Bible. But after getting Sirvega's comment, I wanted to know for myself.
So I ordered this book, The Dead Sea Scrolls Bible – Translated from Hebrew for the First Time into Modern English. What I found was amazing. Not only did it conform everything I've been writing and teaching about on the Dead Sea Scrolls, but it also boosted my faith in the integrity of scripture. It showed me that today's biblical text is even more accurate than I thought it was.
Consider this. The last of the Old Testament books – Ezra, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi – were written around 400 B.C. so we have copies within about 250 years of the originals. That's pretty amazing. Besides the Bible, there is no other ancient writing that has surviving manuscript copies within 900 years of the originals.
900 years!
And yet historians accept many of these other ancient accounts of history as accurate. The very existence of the Dead Sea Scrolls is providential – a sign that the scriptures are the Word of God – post dating some of the originals by only 200 years.
So the next time you hear someone say: "The Bible we have today has been changed and altered and we don't even know what the originals said."
Tell them to check out this book on The Dead Sea Scrolls and see for themselves what's true.

Revival, Resistance, Reformation, Revolution
An Introduction to the Doctrines of Interposition and Nullification
In 1776, a short time after the Declaration of Independence was adopted, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin were assigned to design an official seal for the United States of America. Their proposed motto was Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God. America owes its existence to centuries of Christian political philosophy. Our nation provided a model for liberty copied by nations the world over.
By the 21st century, we need a "Puritan Storm" to sweep away the Hegelian notion that the state is "God walking on earth." We need revival and reformation in full force to vanquish the problems that plague us as a nation — from government controlled healthcare — to abortion on demand — to same sex "marriage." This booklet gives a primer on our founders' Christian idea of government and examines how the doctrine of nullification was woven into the Constitution as a safeguard against federal tyranny. It concludes with the history and theology of civil resistance. A Second American Revolution is coming with the Word of God growing mightily and prevailing! (Acts 19:20).

The Real Jesus: A Defense of the Historicity and Divinity of Christ (DVD)
Who is the Real Jesus?
Ever since the dawn of modern rationalism, skeptics have sought to use textual criticism, archeology and historical reconstructions to uncover the "historical Jesus" — a wise teacher who said many wonderful things, but fulfilled no prophecies, performed no miracles and certainly did not rise from the dead in triumph over sin.
Over the past 100 years, however, startling discoveries in biblical archeology and scholarship have all but vanquished the faulty assumptions of these doubting modernists. Regrettably, these discoveries have often been ignored by the skeptics as well as by the popular media. As a result, the liberal view still holds sway in universities and impacts the culture and even much of the church.
The Real Jesus explodes the myths of these critics and the movies, books and television programs that have popularized their views. Presented in ten parts — perfect for individual, family and classroom study — viewers will be challenged to go deeper in their knowledge of Christ in order to be able to defend their faith and present the truth to a skeptical modern world – that the Jesus of the Gospels is the Jesus of history — "the same yesterday, today and forever" (Hebrews 13:8). He is the real Jesus.
Speakers include: George Grant, Ted Baehr, Stephen Mansfield, Raymond Ortlund, Phil Kayser, David Lutzweiler, Jay Grimstead, J.P. Holding, and Eric Holmberg.

The Abortion Matrix: Defeating Child Sacrifice and the Culture of Death (DVD)
Download the free Study Guide!
Is there a connection between pagan religion and the abortion industry?
This powerful presentation traces the biblical roots of child sacrifice and then delves into the social, political and cultural fall-out that this sin against God and crime against humanity has produced in our beleaguered society.
Conceived as a sequel and update to the 1988 classic, The Massacre of Innocence, the new title, The Abortion Matrix, is entirely fitting. It not only references abortion's specific target – the sacred matrix where human beings are formed in the womb in the very image of God, but it also implies the existence of a conspiracy, a matrix of seemingly disparate forces that are driving this holocaust.
The occult activity surrounding the abortion industry is exposed with numerous examples. But are these just aberrations, bizarre yet anomalous examples of abortionists who just happen to have ties to modern day witchcraft? Or is this representative of something deeper, more sinister and even endemic to the entire abortion movement?
As the allusion to the film of over a decade ago suggests, the viewer may learn that things are not always as they appear to be. The Abortion Matrix reveals the reality of child-killing and strikes the proper moral chord to move hearts to fulfill the biblical responsibility to rescue those unjustly sentenced to death and to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves (Proverbs 24:11,12; 31:8,9).
Speakers include: George Grant, Peter Hammond, RC Sproul Jr., Paul Jehle, Lou Engle, Rusty Thomas, Flip Benham, Janet Porter and many more.

The Silent Scream (DVD) Eight Languages
"When the lives of the unborn are snuffed out, they often feel pain, pain that is long and agonizing." – President Ronald Reagan to National Religious Broadcasters Convention, January 1981
Ronald Reagan became convinced of this as a result of watching The Silent Scream – a movie he considered so powerful and convicting that he screened it at the White House.
The modern technology of real-time ultrasound now reveals the actual responses of a 12-week old fetus to being aborted. As the unborn child attempts to escape the abortionist's suction curette, her motions can be seen to become desperately agitated and her heart rate doubles. Her mouth opens – as if to scream – but no sound can come out. Her scream doesn't have to remain silent, however … not if you will become her voice. This newly re-mastered version features eight language tracks and two bonus videos.
"… a high technology "Uncle Tom's Cabin" arousing public opinion just as Harriet Beecher Stowe's 1852 antislavery novel ignited the abolitionist movement." – Sen. Gordon Humphrey, Time Magazine

Amazing Grace: The History and Theology of Calvinism (DVD)
Download the Free Study Guide!
Just what is Calvinism?
Does this teaching make man a deterministic robot and God the author of sin? What about free will? If the church accepts Calvinism, won't evangelism be stifled, perhaps even extinguished? How can we balance God's sovereignty and man's responsibility? What are the differences between historic Calvinism and hyper-Calvinism? Why did men like Augustine, Luther, Calvin, Spurgeon, Whitefield, Edwards and a host of renowned Protestant evangelists embrace the teaching of predestination and election and deny free will theology?
This is the first video documentary that answers these and other related questions. Hosted by Eric Holmberg, this fascinating three-part, four-hour presentation is detailed enough so as to not gloss over the controversy. At the same time, it is broken up into ten "Sunday-school-sized" sections to make the rich content manageable and accessible for the average viewer.

The Psychotherapy of Massage: What Makes Us Human?
By Gerry Pyves
For fifteen years, I have been trying to keep my two disciplines of psychotherapy and massage completely separate, out of respect for the reasons why clients came to see me. Clients who come for psychotherapy want to explore the psychological roots of their dysfunction, while clients who come for massage want to sort out their physical problems. I have a confession to make: I have failed miserably.
Appallingly, I have been affecting the bodies of my clients in my psychotherapy practice, and I now confess to affecting the minds of my massage clients. The psychotherapy regulators would have me NOT TOUCH my clients or "get physical" with them for fear of creating "transference issues." The massage regulators would not have me go beyond my scope of practice and start "messing with the minds" of my clients. So shoot me.
Try explaining these "regulations" to massage clients that release psychological and emotional traumas in the presence of powerful healing touch. Try explaining these regulations to those psychotherapy clients who find their body's energy and physical structure transformed by their psychotherapy.
Fear of Touch
Alarmingly, I meet more and more massage therapists who seem to think massage is just about fixing a structural problem. Others simply relegate such touch to the category of "relaxation massage." For which read the unspoken, ineffectual and superficial.
As a profession, we appear to have immersed our heads almost exclusively in the sands of musculoskeletal re-alignment. As if human beings were just muscle and bone.
What Does Massage Touch?
What we actually touch of course, is human skin. We may influence the muscles and tendons and bones, but we do not touch them. What we actually touch is skin. The skin of a living and evolving person, who carries their full life history in every inch of their body.
I do not have the space here to go into all the detail regarding the skin but recommend a reading (or re-reading) of Ashley Montague's classic, Touching: The Human Significance of the Skin and Deane Juhan's brilliant, Job's Body. Both writers refer to the overwhelming scientific evidence that, when we touch the skin, we are making direct contact with a part of our organism that is hard wired directly to the brain and with all that makes us human. So just what is it then, that makes us human?
I use my own acronym to understand what a human being is composed of. It is a model that has served me well for 28 years of clinical practice. It stands for:
P - Physical
When we touch a person's skin, it is impossible to only touch their physical body. In giving more than 20,000 massage treatments as a therapist, I have found it impossible to massage another human being without having a powerful impact on their energy system, their emotions, their mental outlook or their spiritual state.
So why then, our profession's current obsession with only the person's physical structure? Is someone out there afraid of how touch affects our emotions, our thoughts or our spirit? So many bodyworkers I meet seem to just want to prod and poke and frantically "fix" the body; as if it is an enemy to be controlled. Do we really have to subjugate and control the body? Must we still follow these apparently touch phobic leaders of the massage profession (whether male or female) who seem so very frightened of simple nurturing touch? Do we really have to follow blindly as they insist on our touch becoming so medical? If I wanted to be so medical, I would have trained in medicine.
I chose massage because the body is the most magical self-healing organism on the planet, and guess what triggers that self healing? Simple healing touch. Every massage practitioner who has spent any time at all in the treatment room observing our clients knows the muscles in the body have only one "origin" and one "insertion" - the mind. Experienced massage therapists KNOW nurturing touch enables clients to release all their tight muscles in just one breath. Because they are letting go in their minds.
So please stop trying to tell me which bits of my body are wrong and trying to put me right. Just give me touch that respects the journey of my life and properly values the history that twisted my spine and compressed my tissues. Then I will release what I am ready to release. In my own time. In my own way.
Please don't just sit there with your SOAP notes and address one fifth of what makes me human. See all of me. Listen to all of me. I come for touch that connects me with my very soul. Do my muscles release when I get this? Of course, they do.

Walks And Walking – Autumn Walks With The National Trust
Walks And Walking – Autumn Walks With The National Trust
Although the summer is now technically over that does not mean an end to some good weather. I have noticed over the years that September, October and even November can be very pleasant for walking, with clear blue skies and some autumn sunshine which make for some memorable autumn walks.
So if you are looking for something different to do this autumn then now is a perfect time to join the National Trust and discover some amazing walking routes. For the latest offers on National Trust Memberships please click on the National Trust advertisement or visit the Walks And Walking Shop.
The Great British Walk with the National Trust
This is the National Trust's walking festival with lots of events throughout the UK and wonderful trails to follow in our glorious British countryside. The walking festival runs all the way up to the 4th November so there is plenty of time to join the National Trust and get involved.
Latest News from the National Trust this autumn
The National Trust website has now been updated to include a comprehensive list of parks and gardens that come alive during the autumn months. They have also uploaded a new movie map which shows all of their properties that have been featured in films over the yeas. They have also recently commissioned a writer and philosopher to spend a week at the White Cliffs for their White Cliffs Appeal. You can read his thoughts on his blog here and visit the official National Trust website for more details on how to donate.
Property News from the National Trust
Godolphin in Cornwall has a new art exhibition running until the 4th November. Box Hill played host to the cycling road races during the Olympics and surveys conducted after the event showed no ecological damage to the wildlife as a result of the thousands of spectators that turned up. The Giant's Causeway has opened its new visitor centre and had a visit from the Prime Minister David Cameron as well as featuring in the Olympics Opening Ceremony. Castle Drogo has received vital funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund which will help us to preserve this place for the future. All of these great venues are perfect for autumn walks.

ASUS P8Z77-V PREMIUM (Intel Z77) Motherboard Review
PCMark 7
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.04
Developer Homepage: http://www.pcmark.com
Product Homepage: http://www.pcmark.com
PCMark 7 includes a range of tests that give different views of your system's performance. In the Advanced Edition you can choose which tests to run. The common use and hardware component tests are unavailable in the Basic Edition.
Overall system performance is measured by the PCMark test. This is the only test that returns an official PCMark score. The Lightweight test measures the system capabilities of entry-level systems and mobility platforms unable to run the PCMark test, but it does not generate a PCMark score. Common use performance is measured by the scenario tests - Entertainment, Creativity and Production - each of which results in a scenario score. Hardware component performance is measured by the hardware tests - Computation and Storage - each of which results in a hardware score.
Version and / or Patch Used: 6.5
Developer Homepage: http://www.cyberlink.com/
Product Homepage: http://www.cyberlink.com/products/mediaespresso/overview_en_AU.html?fileName=overview&r=1
MediaEspresso is a blazingly fast media universal converter that can transcode your videos, photos and music files and out put them to a huge range of portable devices including mobile phones, portable media players and even game consoles. With technologies like Smart Detect, Direct Sync and CyberLink's TrueTheater video enhancements, you can not only forget about complicated format, resolution and output settings, but your converted file will come out the other side looking better than when it went in!
Again the out of the box performance is extremely strong here with the ASUS P8Z77-V PREMIUM coming out ahead of everything under PC Mark 7 and falling only six seconds behind the ASUS P8Z77-V Pro/Thunderbolt we looked at the other day under Media Espresso.
Overclocking again brings some excellent performance and you can see we're just two seconds over that 15 minute mark when it comes to the Media Espresso encode. We had hoped for a little bit more performance that would see it fall under it, but we just couldn't get any more out of our CPU.

Now that 2012 is over, I guess it's time to start looking at what's coming down the track in 2013. Here are my top five predictions for the year ahead:
ZFS will be recognized as the most broadly deployed storage file system in the world.
Okay, so I cheated on that one. It already is. We alone have half as much storage, we figure, under management as NetApp claims. Add Oracle and you're already bigger than any one-storage file system. Add all Solaris and illumos deployments on top of that and you are 3-5x larger than NetApp's OnTap. In fact, the number of ZFS users is larger than those using NetApp's OnTap file system and EMC's Isilon file system combined.
"Other" will again be the only storage vendor growing product sales year on year
Take a look at EMC's recent earnings results. They show that while EMC is gaining market share, it is dropping year on year product sales. Results from NetApp are similar; again, it is likely gaining share versus the much, much larger system vendors while dropping sales quarter on quarter.
Given that storage spend is actually increasing, the only explanation that makes sense is that "Other" is taking more and more share within storage and is taking ALL of the revenue growth in the space.
What this means is you are out of touch if you are not at least evaluating "Other". Companies like Nexenta are pioneering software defined storage that offers superior enterprise class performance and data protection without the vendor lock in and ridiculous pricing of legacy storage vendors.
Software defined storage will be more disruptive and more difficult than the rest of the software defined data centre
There are about $1.2 billion reasons software defined networking was hot in 2012, such as VMware acquiring Nicera for $1.2 billion. And with good reason. Fixing, making more flexible, networking is an important part of fixing the data centre.
But storage is the real bottleneck. At current rates of growth, storage is on pace to consume more dollars than networking, security, and compute put together by 2014. That's simply not sustainable.
Perhaps even more importantly, storage is hard and data is heavy. You can move network port definitions around with a VM and have a software infrastructure in place plus the hardware to forward those packets accordingly and achieve software defined networking. You cannot move the data around.
Repeat after me, you cannot move the data around. You cannot move zetabytes of data here around because the speed of light has not changed and it takes time to get that data over the network. So it's increasingly important to work out what SLAs are acceptable from compute and networking to deliver per application performance on the storage. Perhaps this will be done increasingly by performing compute ON the storage, such as in our VSA for View product.
SaaS and web companies will continue to vote against IaaS offerings from major vendors
Take a poll of the CEOs of the top SaaS companies and they'll all tell you, "No legacy IaaS company has a clue how to run infrastructure for the enterprise". They cannot match the price point of those based on commodity hardware. Relatively few data center providers pass muster.
NVMe and anti-competitive behavior by flash factories will shift the flash storage world towards openness
With recent moves by the four or five companies that make pretty much all the world's NAND for SSDs and consumer devices to limit global supply in the hope of restraining price drops, vendors and users reliant on flash are concerned about locking themselves into a single vendor.
NVMe offers some hope. Unlike FusionIO, which is getting users to adopt a proprietary set of APIs to get to their data, NVMe is a standard approach to accessing data on flash-enabled systems. Nexenta and most other storage vendors will support NVMe, which should level the playing field somewhat.
In either case, openness is important. And software defined storage that abstracts the underlying hardware dependencies away is important if storage and compute buyers want to avoid more vendor lock in as the world shifts towards flash.
That's my top five for 2013 but I also have a bonus prediction for you: All flash isn't a company, it's a feature
Every storage system vendor will have all flash capabilities in their product offering in 2013. We launched ours earlier in 2012 with partners announcing systems based on NexentaStor achieving over 1 million IOPS, more than 3x faster than proprietary all flash systems on the market.
Our users don't want to sacrifice enterprise class requirements like data protection, NAS access and 24x7 around the clock support in order to have all flash appliances. So they won't. They'll buy all flash from legacy vendors or from other suppliers like Nexenta and our partners, including Dell, SGI, Wipro, Racktop, Cisco and others that have a track record of making many thousands of customers successful.
To paraphrase John Chambers of Cisco and many other leaders of the IT industry, when industries shift, they shift. All we can do as companies is try to anticipate and then keep up with the shift.
With increasing coverage in mainstream IT and in analyst reports – and mounting interest on the part of Wall Street, including countless public investors and bankers with whom I've been spending time – the storage industry is shifting right before our eyes. In 2012 all major vendors saw declining core product sales despite a fast growing overall storage sector. We also saw confirmation that an originally general-purpose file system, ZFS, passed the legacy storage vendors in terms of capacity under management. And with software defined storage gaining visibility I'm confident that by the end of 2013 we will look back on the early 2000s storage industry and wonder, "what were we thinking".
The world has changed. And openness and flexibility has come to storage. The result will be a better IT industry and a smarter world. But that's a subject for another blog.
What do you think about my projections? What did I miss? What is the most likely to occur? What is least likely?

"Huntington and the State of West Virginia have lost one of our greatest captains of industry and philanthropy. Art chose to make Huntington his home and throughout his lifetime here, he was committed to improving the quality of life for its current and future residents. Art and the entire Weisberg family have left an indelible imprint on this university through their support of our academic programs and willingness to give back to the community they so dearly love. "Jane and I and all of us at Marshall extend our love and heartfelt prayers to Joan and the entire Weisberg family."
