  1. But not this WINE on Winemaker Drinks To Linux · · Score: 1
  2. And on the low end... on AMD Lures IBM Veteran to Lead Chip Design · · Score: 1

    ... they have the new 64-bit Sempron budget processor.

  3. Re:SMT in Sparc on AMD Lures IBM Veteran to Lead Chip Design · · Score: 1

    Sun's Niagara "combines chip multiprocessing (CMP) and SMT to do Chip Multithreading.

  4. Blade servers, yes on Toshiba 40GB Perpendicular Magnetic Record Drives · · Score: 1

    I got a Toshiba laptop hard drive replaced. The replacement I got came from a Sun blade server - OEMd to Toshiba. I'm sure blade chassis could make good use of denser 1.8" and 2.5" drives.

  5. And the budget line as well on Speculations Intel's Next Generation · · Score: 1

    Not just the cheaper Athlon64s, but low cost 64-bit computing with the new AMD64 Semprons on Socket 754.

  6. for NFS on Intel and BlueArc Set New Mail Server Record · · Score: 1

    If you would look at the details, the mail cluster uses NFS. Invented at Sun.

  7. Re:Programming Pearls on Brain Teasers for Coders? · · Score: 1

    I agree regarding Programming Pearls. It's about applied CS, without the rigor.

  8. General purpose CPU and higher level protocols on Researcher Resigns Over New Cisco Router Flaw · · Score: 1

    Now they're going up the network stack with high-value applications such as Message Queueing. These use Intel CPUs on a a router blade.

  9. subversion+ssh+squid trick on Distributed Development, with Karl Fogel · · Score: 1

    Now if you run your own Squid, but are limited to ssh, you can still make Subversion work.

  10. Subversion behind a http proxy on Distributed Development, with Karl Fogel · · Score: 1

    Yeah it took me a while to figure out why the http_proxy env variable didn't work. Then, you need to ask your sysadmin (if that's not you) to open up the ports (like for squid)

  11. Benefits from IBM too on Sun Application Server 9.0 PE Open Sourced · · Score: 3, Informative

    Glassfish uses Derby, which was open sourced by IBM from the Cloudscape embedded database.

  13. Re:Java is the real problem on Ant - The Definitive Guide · · Score: 1

    If you don't mind forking to run external tools, instead of running in the same VM, you could use the native build of ant using gcj as sponsored by Red Hat.

  14. toolkit vs framework on Ant - The Definitive Guide · · Score: 1

    Ant: toolkit for building, declaratively (e.g. say "please compile/javac these stuff, and how" instead of specifying "javac -classpath ... -d ... File.java"

    Maven: a framework or skeleton your build will follow, declaratively. "This is the source tree..."

  15. Re:Very specialized components on U.S. Government Crafted OSS · · Score: 1

    Good call. I did not realize that.

  16. Doctors on U.S. Government Crafted OSS · · Score: 1
  17. Very specialized components on U.S. Government Crafted OSS · · Score: 1

    I was hoping it was something the average open source hacker could work on... like PHP, or J2EE/JavaEE... but when I saw the list of components... uh OK.

  18. The Mainframe's impact on Java on What is Mainframe Culture? · · Score: 1

    The Mainframe's impact on Java is in the Java Message Service. JMS evolved from commercial MQ products that talk to the mainframe, but is now message queueing readibly accessible as open source.

  19. Hiring more doctors? on Meet Web Hypochondriacs · · Score: 1

    There must be a reason why people are coming in from overseas, like from India and the Philippines, to take the USMLE medical licensure exam and practice medicine in the US.

  20. Apache Software License on 56.2% of Software Developers use Open Source · · Score: 1

    Stuff from the Apache Java projects have made its way into all sorts of commercial ware - even the Java Runtime itself.

    The monopoly telco in the Philippines, PLDT, has invested in the top MMOG operator, Level Up Games. They operate the local Ragnarok franchise.

  25. Re:Asterisk? on Microsoft Serious About VoIP · · Score: 1

    Or for a complete business VoIP solution, you can use Mobicents, which implements the JAIN SLEE (Java API for Integrated/Intelligent Networks, Service Logic Execution Environment). It has a Resource Adapter for Asterisk, so it can manage the protocol layer.
