Microsoft
Announces SP1 for .NET Framework, Visual J# .NET Beta 2
by Timothy Prickett
Morgan
Microsoft has
announced the first service pack for the .NET Framework, which
is kind of a preview of the XML-based Web services
technologies that Microsoft will weave into the "Whistler"
Windows .NET Server operating systems later this year. The
framework runs on Windows 2000, and the SP1 update addresses
security concerns as well as bugs. Microsoft has also
announced the second beta of its Visual J# .NET, a Java-like
language that is one of many supported in the .NET
architecture.

IBM
Wants To Eat Sun's Lunch With Linux Telco Servers
by Timothy Prickett
Morgan
Market researchers Cahners
In-Stat/MDR reckon that the market for ruggedized servers
using DC power and adhering to other telecom and service
provider standards is about a $4.5 billion business, and it is
one that IBM's
nemesis in the server market--Sun Microsystems--gets about a
fifth of its revenues from. So it comes as no surprise that
IBM has announced a ruggedized xSeries rack-mounted server
that will eventually use a hardened version of Linux to attack
that key Sun market.

Red
Hat Turns Minimal Profit in 2002, Restructuring Eats It--And
Then Some
by Dan
Burger
Commercial Linux
distributor Red
Hat, is feeling chipper coming out of its fiscal year
2002, a year marked by the company's transition from primarily
selling Linux software at a retail level to becoming a
provider of open source solutions to companies, particularly
large enterprises. Given that the company's transition took
place during a stormy economic and geo-political year, Red
Hat's ability to remain essentially at a break-even point
compared to the previous year is an indication of its current
momentum.

Kronos
Acquires HR/Payroll Apps for Windows
by Alex Woodie
Kronos entered the market
for payroll and human resources software last week by
purchasing the source code for a Windows-based payroll and
human resource application developed by Best Software. Kronos,
which already controls more than 50 percent of the market for
time and attendance software, decided to break into the
midrange payroll and HR market because it sees no clear leader
in that space and because its customers have been asking for
the software for years.

BindView
Fights the Idea of Security as Accessory
by Alex Woodie
Security software
vendor BindView last week
acknowledged the development of a new solution that will
address a range of issues affecting security in the
enterprise. The Enterprise Security Solution, which the
Houston, Texas, company announced at the InfoSec security
conference in Orlando, Florida, bundles BindView services
around BindView's existing software offerings. Officials say
the solution's primary focus will be breaking the
preconception of security as an accessory item and bringing it
into the mainstream of IT organizations.

Developing Windows Version of MIMIX Clustering
by Alex Woodie
Lakeview Technology is
adapting its MIMIX high availability software for OS/400
servers to run under Microsoft Windows and IBM's xSeries
servers. The Oak Brook, Illinois, company is not yet ready to
formally announce the availability of the software or discuss
it in detail. However, the company's preliminary announcement
makes it clear that MIMIX for Windows will be geared toward
helping existing AS/400 and iSeries users provide more uptime
for their Integrated xSeries Servers or external xSeries
servers connected via the xSeries adapter cards. READ
