Opinion: Respect For Customers Still Counts In The Virtual World: Page 3 of 3

All of these virtualization innovations mentioned above are important because they give customers more options and more flexibility in aligning their infrastructure resources to keep up with those customers' customers, a group that is moving faster than ever before, and is more demanding than ever before. So three cheers for all the technology breakthroughs -- the ones that aren't just virtual but also real. But I think that the most valuable of all these innovations will be the ones that, like Microsoft's, are rooted not only in technology but also in the value and respect delivered to customers. Because there's nothing virtual about that.
