Panther Server to Include JBoss

Posted by pudge on from the mmm-open-java dept.

Mr. McD writes "Seems like Apple is going to be pushing J2EE with Max OS X Server 10.3, again going the Open Source route, with JBoss preinstalled alongside graphical deployment tools. You can see it on the Panther Server page, in the side bar."

    > and get an excuse for my boss to buy me a G5

    I think a great thing for the Apple community as a whole would be to set up a repository of excuses to get a G5 system. I wonder if g5excuses.org is taken...

    1) Not subject to the MSBlaster worm
    2) Quieter than a G4
    3) Non-plastic case
    4) Reality Distortion Field(tm) upgraded to be Tempest-proof.
    5) Earns good karma
    6) No floppy
    7) No-button mouse (really, no buttons - the whole mouse is the button now)
    8) It makes me happy, and a happy worker is a productive worker!
    9) I'll never leave the office again
    10) I know where you live...

    It's the "get [it] right first" attitude that I really like. I'm starting to thing of the yearly releases as buying an OS that really is worth the $300 even if it did take three years, that's faster than Daikatana or DNF [1] made it out the door [2].

    [1] Duke Nukem Forever will be released the same day that Arnold Schwarzenegger is elected governor of California.

    [2] And you'll have more fun with the chess game that comes with OS X.
