AO: This article was written about the iHub in its "early days" and was one of the first big mainstream articles about it. I remember my manager at the iHub was very excited about it and on my trip to the US before I officially started my job, I picked up a couple of nice frames from IKEA so that we could frame the pictures from the hard-copy of the magazine article. We put them up on the walls of iHub Research for quite some time. Unfortunately the online version of this article doesn't have the same imagery as the hard copy of the article did.
