The Nightmare in Silicon Valley: 8 horror technologies that should scare you to death
ZDNet presents the worst tech products and services, embarrassing decisions, and other screw-ups of the year.
Since the Apple-IBM strategic partnership deal began in 2014, enterprise customers hoped that Big Blue's investment in developing iOS applications would also yield new, enterprise-worthy devices from Cupertino to match. After many months of speculation, Apple released the iPad Pro in November. What did we get? An iPad with a much larger screen, a faster processor and more memory, as well as an expensive pressure-sensitive stylus. No converged mashup of iOS and OS X that could run real enterprise apps, and no business hardened device that could handle true vertical scenarios. It was a device that was “Pro” for "prosumer", and not for business professionals.
