Rob Enderle be a lady tonight

Last week we learned the answer to a question that has plagued mankind from time immemorial. "Who the heck pays Rob Enderle to do whatever the heck it is exactly he does?" Not too surprisingly, the answer was Dell, on their upcoming iPod killah! (Good luck with that by the way, boys!)

This week, Rob outdoes his already jacktastic standards by writing in glowing terms about a project he's being paid to consult on without, you know, revealing he's being paid to consult on it.

I'm not sure I'd bet against Michael Dell.

Well, sure, Rob. It's not polite to bet against the guy who brought you to the game.

A lady never leaves her escort
It isnt fair, it isnt nice
A lady doesnt wander all over the room
And blow on some other guys dice

Lets keep this party polite
Never get out of my sight
Stick with me baby, I'm the guy that you came in with
Luck be a lady tonight

Our Rob sure is one classy dame.

It could be worse. Rob could have praised Microsoft for their little game of three-card Mojave, which would only have been lower if they had targeted drunken sailors on liberty. Even Enderle couldn't be THAT stupid, though.

Could he?

People took him to task in the comments section for being a shill and not disclosing his affiliation with the Dell project. He defended his position by stating that his relationship with Dell was already disclosed by the WSJ before he wrote the article. Unbelievable Enderle.
