More than half of all U.S. publicly-traded companies & and two-thirds of Fortune 500 firms & are incorporated in Delaware because of its business-friendly laws and well-established corporate legal precedence.
The state, which doesn't have a sales tax, gets nearly one-third of its revenue from franchise taxes on more than a million corporate entities, accounting for $1.3 billion of its $4.2 billion general coffer. Making incorporating in the state more attractive is seen as a money maker and competitive advantage against other states.
To that end, Delaware in October plans to launch a proof-of-concept for a blockchain-based business filing system that will allow corporations to take advantage of smart contract technology to automatically track stocks and collateral assets in real time; being able to do so will give lenders and borrowers a more efficient and accurate record with which to transact business and meet state and federal regulations.

This week Microsoft (disclosure: Microsoft is a client of the author) announced the Microsoft Surface Go. This is an original iPad sized Surface product with a base price of just under $400 that uses a Pentium processor and has 9 hours of battery life. While the iPad is clearly the competitive target, particularly in education, you can also see it as a hedge against the Chromebook which has been making inroads in education and in a lot of trials, but few (if any yet) successful deployments in the enterprise market.

I hoped the "iPad-killer" meme had finally kicked the bucket, but I was wrong: the hype is back around Microsoftoverpriced and underpowered Surface Go. I&ve not used a Surface Go yet (Microsoft could change that), but reports that itabout to kill the iPad are over-exaggerated. Herewhy:
Itnot an iPad Pro
Letget something out of the way. Surface Go does not compete with the iPad Pro on any metric that matters: It holds a slower processor, offers nothing like the performance, lacks battery life, and doesn&t even have the same high-resolution display.
