NWC Editor Huawei "Not Interested" in U.S. Market
By Andrew Conry-Murray

Earlier this week the Financial Times reported that Huawei executive vice president Eric Hu said the company was "not interested in the U.S. market any more." The company says it no longer considers the U.S. to be a growth market or a primary revenue source. While the Chinese network equipment manufacturer has had some success in the United States, it has also been plagued with allegations of IP theft, and American government agencies have been restricted from buying Huawei products because of espionage concerns. At the same time, a lot of high-tech equipment from American companies is manufactured and assembled in China. Is Huawei a victim of political machinations, or do you feel caution is warranted? Drop me a line and let me know.

Today's data centers are essentially the same: long rows of metal racks stocked with machines, miles of cable, and elaborate cooling systems. But just because we build data centers this way in 2013 doesn't mean that's how it will be in ten, twenty or fifty years. Here's a few glimpses of what the future might hold, from printable electronics to nanotube processors to nuclear batteries.
