Massive Patch Tuesday planned for October 13 The Microsoft Subnet blog: October's Patch Tuesday will land on October 13 and, in an act of either irony or perhaps Microsoft's idea of a humor, will feature 13 updates. These updates will fix a total of 34 holes. Microsoft's loss of Sidekick data has users threatening lawsuits The Microsoft Subnet blog: A cloud outage has caused T-Mobile Sidekick users to lose their data. The service is run by Danger Inc., a Microsoft subsidiary. Users are not amused. Three creative ways to evaluate Windows Server 2008 R2 Glenn Weadock: Microsoft has provided several ways for us to evaluate Server 2008 R2. There are three "free" methods in addition to the traditional ways of getting eval copies through TechNet Plus and MSDN. ESF Database Migration Toolkit: From SQL to ORACLE without any fuss Ron Barrett: One of the tasks that threw me for a loop when I first started working in IT was working with databases. NOT MY REALM, I thought, way out of my comfort zone. If that sounds like you, have I got a tool for you. Podcast: Office Web Apps Microsoft's Nail in Google Apps' Coffin? Mitchell Ashley: Many users of Google Docs switched because of its sharing and collaboration features or they were looking for a low cost ($50/user/year) web-based alternative to Microsoft Office. Microsoft's response is Office Web Apps. Windows Mobile 6.5 - It's A Shame It's So Lame Mitchell Ashley: Microsoft has announced phone partners for Windows Mobile 6.5 and we now have bird's eye view of the mobile OS upgrade. Too bad there's not a whole lot to see. Will Apple Block Adobe's 'End-Around' Into The iPhone End Zone? Mitchell Ashley: Adobe thwarted Apple by adding a Flash-to-iPhone compiler in the next version of Flash Professional CS5. Hosting PHP on Windows Makes More Sense than Ever Jim Cheshire: PHP has traditionally been considered a programming platform for Apache web servers and performed slowly on Windows servers. Microsoft has made significant headway in changing this with the release of FastCGI for IIS, and the Windows Cache Extension for PHP. Microsoft, Red Hat hypervisors are friends. The companies? Not so much The Microsoft Subnet blog: Microsoft and Red Hat have made good on their February promise to validate that their server operating systems will function properly on one another's hypervisors. This just made good business sense and in no way means the two frienemies will fall into each other's arms like best buds, like, for instance Microsoft and Novell.
