SimIndiana and Kyle Lutes

Well, Indiana made Slashdot news today with SimIndiana. They linked to an Indy Star article that quoted Kyle!.

Kyle Lutes, associate professor of computer science at Purdue University, said he hadn't heard of SimDesk but expressed skepticism at the program.

It seems like a good deal, he said, but the company may be using the "crack dealer method of marketing -- give it to 'em free until they're addicted."

Plus, he said, many of its features already are available for free online.

As it always seems when I know the behind the scenes info on a newspaper article, there is a mistake. Kyle is a professor in the Department of Computer Technology not Computer Science.

CNET, Inside Indiana Business and the South Bend Tribune also had articles.
