Today's Story Highlights

Sony's Foolish Failure to Learn From Microsoft's Mistake
Microsoft has learned a lot of very hard lessons over the last couple of
decades, and it continues to surprise and annoy me that other firms seem
to have the suicidal tendency to learn the same lessons the hard way. It
is far better and cheaper to avoid the mistakes of others, but firms
like Apple, Google and, most recently, Sony seem to want to experience
past Microsoft disasters first hand.

Companies Cheer Completion of Open-Design Transatlantic Internet Cable
Microsoft on Friday announced completion of the Marea undersea cable,
which stretches 4,400 miles between Virginia Beach, Virginia, and
Bilbao, Spain. A joint project of Microsoft, Facebook and global
telecommunication infrastructure company Telxius, the cable lies more
than 17,000 feet below the ocean's surface. It is the first cable to
link Virginia and Spain.

Ford Motor Puts Design Strategy Under the HoloLens
Ford Motor Company on Thursday unveiled details about its use of
Microsoft's HoloLens augmented reality technology in the automotive
design process. Ford's design teams have swapped out their clay-
sculpting tools -- a staple of the automotive world since the 1930s,
when Harley Earl introduced them at General Motors -- for mixed reality
headsets and visualization software.
