"CIO Journal incorrectly listed Contoso as a company that picked Microsoft over Google Apps. We regret the error."
This shows how "out of touch" C level corporate folks can be.

C'mon, are you sure April 1 wasn't involved?
I'd heard that Northwest Traders was thinking of going O365 as well. |

Fabrikam is still the "TWO (The world onine)" database in SQL server.
SO what is the ticker symbol for TWO?
Perhaps they are in new cloud provider?

I think it's from here: http://blogs.wsj.com/cio/2012/04/09/google-organizational-changes-cloud-the-future-of-apps/ They probably confused Contoso with Fabrikam, common mistake.
