SAS Dashboards on Nintendo Wii
->
Think you can get away from the pressures of business intelligence dashboards by hiding in your den and playing video games on the Nintendo Wii? Think again because SAS announced today that they are bringing SAS Dashboards to the Nintendo Wii platform. It seems that the product team at SAS feels that the Wii’s innovative remotes can be put to great use for data mining. Hyperactive business users will be able to scroll through big data tables by swinging the wii-motes from side to side and up and down.
Here’s the announcement as it appeared on the 4/1/09 issue of The SAS Dummy blog titled Announcement: SAS on the Wii.

Amazing, isn’t it?
