Arguably, there are still data on these devices, such as local copies of corporate email that might contain sensitive information. However, does the risk of unauthorized access to the average user’s email account and the loss of a $300 piece of hardware necessitate specialized technologies and a cadre of staff to implement and monitor them?

Indeed, the numbers may back him up—cloud computing sure seems to be squeezing the vendor’s hardware business. The most recent evidence is clear: In Q3 2013, IBM’s systems revenue fell 19 percent, with its Power line falling 38 percent, System x sliding 18 percent and storage falling 11 percent. Among its hardware platforms, only System z mainframe server products showed some life, with a 6 percent uptick. Betting against IBM
