SEARCH390.COM FEATURED TOPIC | z/VM and Linux

2002 marks the 30th anniversary of IBM's VM (Virtual Machine) OS
which has evolved into today's z/VM, a flexible, scalable system that
has gained in popularity many say due to Linux. Learn more about
running Linux under z/VM in this week's Featured Topic.

THE MISSING LINK | Martha Stewart buff cooks up fan site

If you're one of those people who would love to see a "Martha Stewart
Prison" collection of bunk linens, jail cell accessories and other
fashions that help "complete a sentence," then you won't like this
Web site. SaveMartha.com has gone online to try to rescue the harried
homemaker's ripped reputation, which has taken a bigger beating than
egg whites being prepared for a meringue. The site lets fans
encourage Martha, read pro-Martha stories and shop in the Save Martha
store. The guy who started the site said that he's been a fan of
Stewart for years, that she's being picked on because she's a
successful woman and that it's time to leave her alone.
