| I'm an investor and I want to get up to speed |
| Marketplace computing explained, what Microsoft is missing, types of companies that will profit from marketplace computing and the role of VoiceOverIP networks. |
| Tell me the key elements of the story |
| The dangerous legacy of the IT industry is the stifling of knowledge and collaboration. The evolving paradigm of marketplace computing can lead to a business monopoly. If Microsoft standardises marketplace computing, they will be in the position to have a total business monopoly and other companies will not be in a position to address the legacy as they will not exist. |
| Tell me about Microsoft and the business monopoly |
| Microsoft has used standardisation to gain market dominance. Microsoft is set to achieve the same dominance in marketplace computing. Only an alliance of companies can compete with Microsoft. |
| What's the connection between all of the components |
| A knowledge management legacy from the IT industry exists. There is a need to prevent Microsoft from gaining a total business monopoly through standardised market place computing. If an alliance is not formed to provide an alternative to Microsoft, other companies may not exist and who then will address the knowledge management legacy? |
