They have already mentioned they're looking to move their PC division, and transition towards a services model, a la IBM. I'm not saying this will all pan out, but that's what has come out.

Is this a book or video series? I'd be interested if you could provide a link to the series you mention specifically.

Well, the price is ridiculous in relation to the 24hr viewing period. $5 for a 5 day viewing window would be more reasonable. Honestly, don't any of these people have children? Kids don't always go for something in one take.
