        <description><![CDATA[This is an interesting article, but it's about ten years too late.  Businesses have been doing this for years.  The IT community may be just catching on to this, because the truly useful tools allow different departments to implement solutions without IT involvement, but this is not new stuff.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Conceptually valid but fails to acknowledge that every investment in *M*IS formalizes specific information and decision making processes.  While its intended to be somewhat predictive of short-term dynamics, it won't anticipate a stealth competitor or disruptive tech innovation.

        <description><![CDATA[And who's your intended audience?  Big companies's IT chief type, all IT managers?  It's my impression that small enterprise IT managers just want to &quot;keep things going&quot;, what do you think of the idea of selling BI to this group of people with the notion that it will make their job easier?]]></description>
