Good enough for today and at the right price

Read this Infoworld article by Chad Dickerson. He talks of integrating off-the-shelf software and outsourcing as the trends that will outlast the current economic downturn. At the end of the article, he twists a famous phrase by Steve Jobs of Apple as:
...enterprise IT has moved on from "insanely great" to "good enough for today and at the right price."

So true. I see this happening all the time and more so in the last few months. I have seen that the IT attitudes have changed but it is very difficult to change the habits of end users/clients. They have been accustomed to getting things done their way all the time. Guess these attitudes will have to change sooner than later.
