From BusinessWire: New reports from technology analysts Hurwitz Group and Matterhorn Group
recommend the IBM eServer z900, the reinvented mainframe, running Linux, as an effective energy saving alternative to server farms.
The need to conserve energy and space in computer data centers has taken on new urgency with recent power shortages in California and

z900 could do the job of hundreds of other servers combined.

Jan Stafford tells us that SearchEnterpriseLinux has a story about Finnish data security solutions provider F-Secure developing an
anti-virus firewall solution for Linux. “The company was responding to a flood of requests from customers who are beginning to feel more

former chief evangelist, was recently sighted giving a
presentation in London to a bunch of IBM loyalists
using — gasp! — a ThinkPad. Such a blasphemy
could not go unpunished. The self-appointed
Ayatollahs of the Mac world set out to clip Kawasaki
wings, flaming him on bulletin boards and chat rooms

46-year-old Kawasaki had sacrificed one of his own children in public rather than
giving a presentation on the dot-com bust.”
