Untold Stories of Software Innovation

Craig Burton pointed me to Untold History, an interesting little behind-the-scenes look at some innovative software. I'd personally like to see more than the official history of NT's relationship to VMS.

Titles

It helps if you read the manual: all of it.

$ perl -e 'print $i=pack(c5,(41*2),sqrt(7056),(unpack(c,H)-2),oct(115),10);'

I do need to work with styles a bit. h4 for these titles is far too large.

IBM to release high-end Intel server [cnet]

IBM on Wednesday will release its highest-end Intel server yet, a system code-named Vigil that uses eight, 12 or 16 processors.
"What Unisys is trying to do is sell Intel-based technology at mainframe prices. We're doing just the opposite," Fay said.

What I hate is reading press release-based articles that don't point you to the source. ServerWatch has more details than c|net, but neither seem able to link off-site.
