If it isn't broken, don't fix it,
Sorry - I don't agree and frankly think that this philosophy is doing
more to kill the platform than anything IBM has or hasn't done in terms of marketing. Hmmm, that's a tough call. Sure, that kind of thinking hurts us all, but is it really doing more damage than IBM's constant re-branding and lackluster sales and advertising? I agree we should be proactive, I just think it hurts us less than IBM's lack of a coherent marketing effort. =)
Another possibility that the new CIO will look at the Apps and describe
them as old-fashioned green-screen rubbish. Another nail in the coffin. Yeah, that's where it hurts. When people perceive us as lacking value to the organization.
We're going to ride "it ain't broken" into the System's grave! Jon Paris
How about a new motto? "If it ain't broken - improve it!" =) (which usually involves breaking it a few times...)
