QuickTime streaming media exploit targets unpatched bug

Pending a patch from Microsoft...

This is a typo right? Or do we really rely on Microsoft to put out a patch for quicktime which casues problems mainly through Firefox.

Citrix set to snatch XenSource

Citrix/MS

Both depend on one and eachother and they won't go hurting eachother either.

MS conviently announced a delay of around a year in their 'advanced' TS features as Citrix delayed their version which can put Lunixapps next to Window apps.

IBM and Novell team up for chunk of open source market

Running it past you again

Come on. IBM has been changing their act over the past couple of decades. They know where their strengths lie. And as long as you are not running their Z-servers they know you can switch any which way you want.

The terrorists I party with

And now?

But what to do?

We commercialise everything thus making the government loose grip. Those are the people that should actually work for your benefits (I did say should...). But they are giving away control.

Now news(papers) drive public opinion. Money drives news. Public opinion drives government. So by making money out of creating fear, we wage war and feel even less secure...

RFID a 'technical blunder', report says

A first?

As I read it it stated:

Not worth it for small companies. Which I can understand perfectly. Best of breed does not mean best for you. Surely RFID is nice if you have a big transport business. Though not for small ones.

allofmp3 anyone?

They refused to let you pay to allofmp3 seeing our Russian friends infridged copyright. If I am not mistaken allofmp3 objected to no avail.

Now P10 is claiming the cardcompanies DO have an effect and again to no avail.

Perhaps I'm thinking to binary here.... but wouldn't either of these claims have to stick?
