The Rise And Fall Of The Purple Cow: A Story Of 4 Purple Companies [View article]
Speaking of cows and computers, what about purple elephants that turned brown over time. I really like the way it's put here:
"It's kind of sad to see Dell (NASDAQ: DELL) being taken private and like an elephant, leaving the pack of public hardware and software companies, to go die in the forest alone and away from its companions that would otherwise stand in a circle around it, mourning it, until it finally expires.
This is what's happening to some of the old pillars of the Internet renaissance such as Dell, HP, Sun Microsystems, and some of the old mobile players too, like RIM and Nokia. They are simply becoming irrelevant to customers and partners. In other words they are becoming irrelevant to their own revenue streams. When this happens, sales have no choice but to decline while important numbers are being missed. Companies will face this slow painful decline in value if they do not put mobile first!"
