Gartner once again proving its irrelevance with idiotic Windows Phone 7 prediction

All you CEO's out there, do you want to know a great trick to see if your CIO/CTO is worth anything? Look for a copy of Gartner in their office and see if any of their recommendations have blindly come from Gartner. If so, fire them immediately. For the life of me I have spent a lot of cycles trying to figure out why anyone in their right mind considers Gartner the bible of technology in corporate America. Gartner has been wrong so many times over it's sickening. Let me tell you what Gartner is. Gartner is a bunch of elitist wannabe geeks with MBA's that look at technology from the dillusion prism of the technological equivalent of social justice, not free market principles. Free market principles dictate 'may the best product win' with the definition of 'best product' being determined by the best ROI (return on investment) for business and thus the largest sales. Gartner instead looks at technology in the work place with the mindset of 'we don't like this product, we much prefer this product so we're going to try to shape everyone's opinion to determine the outcome, the free market be damned.' Well guess what Gartner, the free market will always win. You might have some influence with the brain dead zombies who don't understand the departments they are over but eventually high costs and inefficiency always weed them out. Today Gartner is setting another great example of their irrelevance and will continue to degrade their credibility; http://www.informationweek.com/news/security/reviews/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=227700245 Here is a quote from the article; "Gartner predicts the release of Windows Phone 7 will help bump Microsofts share of the worldwide market from 4.7% in 2010 to 5.2% in 2011, but says the companys share will ultimately decline to just 3.9% by 2014. " While I agree that in 2011 Windows Phone 7's market share won't jump tremendously (they have a lot of negative press to overcome) they are absolutely smoking a 5 horse power bong and doing insane amounts of crack cocaine while injecting heroine into their eyes to come up with this absolutely stupid estimation that by 2014 MS market share in the mobile market will be 3.9%. Quite frankly this outright bigotry is insulting to the intelligence of anyone with an independent thought who knows anything about technology. So I'm calling you out Gartner. You're about as trustworthy as the National Enquirer with the half alien wolf baby on the cover. I'll make you a deal Gartner, if your prediction is true I'll stop blogging but if you're wrong you need to come clean to all the mindless zombies out there and stop leading them to career slaughter. This is just yet another example that I referred to in my previous post here. <img alt="" height="0" width="0" border="0" style="display:none" src="http://segment-pixel.invitemedia.com/pixel?code=TechBiz&amp;partnerID=167&amp;key=segment" /> <img alt="" height="0" width="0" border="0" style="display:none" src="http://pixel.quantserve.com/pixel/p-8bUhLiluj0fAw.gif?labels=pub.29715.rss.TechBiz.9425,cat.TechBiz.rss" />
