Daily News Podcast For Wednesday, May 17


Posted by admin, May 17, 2006 07:51 AM

In today's daily news podcast, Sun's pledge to make Java open source leaves key questions unanswered. Meanwhile, the company forms an alliance with Microsoft for Java and .Net. Also, Gates says Microsoft will provide common SQL underpinnings, AMD touts energy-efficient PC processors, Apple dumps the iBook and unveils the 13-inch MacBook, IBM researchers cram 8 terabytes on a tape cartridge, and Snap.com blurs paid and unpaid search results. The In Depth looks at the latest personal technology headlines, while the Editor's Note looks at the latest example of what can happen when you don't preempt hackers, as well as the horrors of not planning for failure.

Your host today is Patricia Keefe.
