HANDSETS ARE THE LAST FRONTIER FOR LINUX

We've all heard the Microsoft pitch a thousand times -- if
you're running Windows on the server and the desktop, it only

then perhaps Microsoft is soon to be hoisted on its own petard.

MCAFEE READIES HOME WI-FI SECURITY TOOL

Remember the George Carlin routine "The Seven Words You Can't
Say on Television"? (No, I'm not going to print them here;
if you're really curious, Google 'em.) I got to thinking the

PRODUCT GUIDE: RACKABLE SYSTEMS S3118-ISCSI

Rackable's S3118-iSCSI appliance combines a basic iSCSI feature set and
good performance. The bundled Wasabi Storage Builder software makes
configuration a breeze, and the potential for using the box as a Windows
or Linux storage server offers additional appeal. Shops looking for easy
and flexible storage expansion will be hard-pressed to find a better
value.
