Let's mark our calenders for the day this dude will have egg on his face. Smartphones are fine when you are on the go, but you can't do actual serious work unless you are on a desktop.

“In three years time, desktops will be irrelevant. In Japan, most research is done today on smart phones, not PCs,” Herlihy told a baffled audience

huh?

Weird.  Google has a pretty in depth hiring process to ensure they only pick the best applicants.  How the fuck did this guy make it?  Most of what he said there was either retarded or didn't make sense.

It's all self-serving drivel.  The idea is to promote so-called "cloud computing", which just happens to be right up Google's alley.  What a fortunate coincidence.  He'll win over some gullible sheep too.
