	Phil's Blogservations Tuesday, March 15, 2005 Posted by philgomes 11:07 AM Specsmanship: The Ostrich Method Specsmanship: The Ostrich Method This eWeek article kind of inspired a wry chuckle. It discusses a Forrester report that casts doubt on the high-end computing capabilities of an upcoming SQL Server database release. Why the lack of performance results? [Forrester Analyst Noel] Yuhanna said that Microsoft isn't able to match the results of its competitors and therefore wants the whole thing to just go away. Thanks to my colleague John Sun for the link. Update: Apparently, some users have disputed this report. | HOME | OBSESSIONS | FAQ | HEROES | CAREER | BLOG | CONTACT Note that the views expressed on this site do not necessarily reflect those of Phil's employer, its business partners, its clients, or anyone or anything that doesn't come from Phil's demented imagination. Hell, to be perfectly honest, even Phil disagrees with what he thinks sometimes. This site has virtually no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Clicking on a link doesn't automatically send a 1/2-cent donation to UNICEF. You can't buy, sell, auction, swap, find a date, win friends, influence people, cross the chasm, or decode the human genome using this site. You won't get free email. You won't win a free video game console. This site will not end world hunger, foster peace in the Middle East, help you smell better, teach you how to swing dance, or move the global economy from petroleum to hydrogen fuels. You'll learn a lot about this site's master, though, which amounts to a haphazard collection of strange and useless facts that pretty much won't help you at all.
