Lou Gerstner at MIT

March 30th, 2008

Just read about Lou Gerstner’s visit to MIT. I enjoyed the book, which means something for that kind of book ;-) and I think I would’ve really enjoyed that session.

I also realized that the decisions made in the IBM Internet Division about not getting involved in the browser wars and adopting Java were made at meetings in 1996, which is already 12 years ago; almost 6 years before I even started at IBM.

All those young people that don’t even remember a time before WebSphere ;-)
