If you could be anyone else for a week, who would you be and what would you do? My wife (without the house work), and spend quality time with my little ones.
Cloud - friend or foe? Foe as it is taking up so much discussion time and there are no absolutes - well, not ones that I can sell!

What would you have as your last meal? Ossobuco. I dare you to look it up.
Who would you like to be stuck in a lift with? The Saturdays.
Have any of your predictions come true this year? With the delay of other vendors' tablets hitting the market, my predictions that Apple share would decline to less than 60 per cent is somewhat off the mark.
What do you see as the channel's biggest challenge in 2012? Manufacturers will continue to be encouraged to take relationships direct, cutting out distribution.
What is the best part of your day? Saying good night to the kids, then I can really relax.
