I have read http://www.manageability.org/blog/stuff/chandler-failure and I think it is very danger way of exposing concepts.

In the article pointed out, the quite dead Chandler project is compared to the multi-billion Eclipse project. And then a too easy analysis is done against dynamic languages, where Java is the absolute winner.

Oracle buys BEA and Sun buys MySql.

In reply,Migrosoft is hungry and is watching Yahoo :-)

<joking> 

Any bets on the next money-based-news?

I'm going for

• Oracle buys Sun: "We need more hardware to run Oracle and WebLogic together! "
  
• Google buys Oracle: "We have *even* more hardware...come on!"
  
• Apple buys Google: "So nice LOGO", retrodating a bunch of stock options, I suppose.
  
• Microsoft buys Apple ("So annoied their are more cool then us!") and shut down all them all so you will end up using their search engine, I hope.

iPhone is a very nice project, well designed and manufactered, but the market addressed is
an hard bet for Apple.
Big players are already on the ground: Nokia, Motorola, Samsung and Sony for instance.

So it is difficult to play in such market, and some analysts said  "the touch screen was not successful for GSM/phone products".

Is it amazing things you can do with a simple Bourne Again Shell  (bash).

I have just discovered you can open socket using a small redirection syntax, and emulate small checks you normally do with curl or wget.

The bash shell manual is always poor about examples, and this is very very sad.

The trends of this october are about some upcoming products. A clear analisys of QuarkXPress failure is sketched in roughlydrafted site. I do not think the same consideration can be applied to Vista.

As Joel said, M$ can throw away much money before only starting to see its market reduced.

Yes this is a negative-advertise (sometimes called flame). I get disappointed by "The Super Dimension Fortres" after about 3 years of use. The service was spartan but quite good, and you got lifetime access for only 36$. I also paid for some additional services from time to time. Then in the summer I launched a "vhost" command, to understand how vhost works. I found no manual and no help, so I closed my shell and went to bed.
After some month, the administrator asked me to pay for a VHOST service I never used. Abeit the time passed, I complain about it sending an email. I recieved NO response.
After a month my account was deleted.
I cannot speak with the administrator. I received only silly auto-generated email asking for money.
And by the way no a decent bill evidence.
This total lack of communication and brute-force resolution of a trivial problem is bad. So I must discourage my friends and readers, to AVOID the Super Dimension Fortres service at all.
