These discussions are by far the most popular and engaging ones. There is always a bt of a pendulum effect in business, but at the moment it is very much swining the way that IT is not so much irrelevant as an active hindrance for most (large) organizations. Outsourcing and software-as-a-service is the industry responding to this situation as an opportunity.
