Posted by admin, Oct 5, 2006 10:40 AM

In Thursday's daily news podcast, we cover the increasingly ugly HP scandal, in which charges have been filed against the company's former chairwoman and several other players in the affair. Google is making snippets of code that perform a variety of functions available for independent Web sites, Fujitsu is now recalling Sony notebook batteries, and Microsoft will reportedly offer XP users discounts to encourage migration to Vista. The daily commentary is focused on the problem--real or imagined--of bots.

Your host for today's podcast is Tom Smith.

Today's podcast is sponsored by Hewlett-Packard:
Technology should lighten your workload, not add to it. That's why HP created the BladeSystem c-Class--an out-of-the-box IT infrastructure that's cost-savvy, change-ready, energy-efficient and time-smart. BladeSystem c-Class improves on the modular infrastructure, using three exciting technologies that are unlike any other blade solution on the market--Virtual Connect Architecture, Thermal Logic Technology and Insight Control Management.
