Review Carr’s article.  He analyzes IT and competitive advantage through three principals:

1) spend less

2) follow don’t lead

3) focus on risks (to your market)

How does the initial launch of the apple watch fit into Carr’s analysis?  Use an example from the article to illustrate your discussion.

If YOU were CEO of Apple at the time of the initial launch, would you decide to go ahead with the apple watch launch or delay launch when considering Carr’s three principals?

Remember to frame the issue in one simple sentence, Why is it important?

Analyze the options. Look and explain all three of Carr’s principals. How do they each relate to the Apple Watch launch?

Make a recommendation, launch or delay, How did you decide?
