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."

    I've been using an illegally acquired copy of the Panther WWDC seed since just before lunch today. All I have to say is WOW. This is one really, really nice OS.

    Expose gestures. Twitch your wrist, and all your windows shrink down and lie flat on the desktop. Twitch it the other way, and the windows fly out of your way like they're reading your freaking mind. So cool.

    Fast user switching. Nothing really revolutionary here, but man it's cool.

    Built-in faxing. The Mac--and all personal computers as a whole--has needed this for years. It works beautifully. You can click one box and turn your computer into a network fax server, too.

    Preview. Better, faster, and smaller than Adobe Reader.

    Man, it's just too cool.
