The government and the company have reportedly hammered out an agreement in which MS would share more of its secrets and give PC makers more say in how they configure Windows. But Redmond's rivals don't think the terms of this deal will muzzle Microsoft's monopolistic ways. http://www.siliconvalley.com/docs/news/depth/ms110101.htm Read what's been going on with the antitrust case at: http://searchwin2000.techtarget.com/featuredTopic/0,290042,sid1_gci752708,00.html. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= OTHER HEADLINES The headlines below and others are available on our news page. >> Full Stories: http://searchwin2000.techtarget.com/news SAP DENIES GETTING COZY WITH JAVA OVER .NET | IDG News SAP is doing a little clarifying.

At least in Italy. Researchers there took away the cell phones of 300 people for two weeks just to see what would happen if they went wireless-less. A lot of those people went haywire! Seventy percent said their lives were empty without their Ericssons, moot without their Motorolas and naught without their Nokias. And, 25% said not having their cell phones had their libidos searching for a signal -- they felt disconnected sexually. That's "amore"! So if you're having trouble, um, "completing a call," maybe you should think Verizon instead of Viagra. >> CLICK: http://www.wired.com/news/wireless/0,1382,48008,00.html >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sponsored by Graphon >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Web enable your applications without rewriting!
