Sybase is sitting in one of them. The company has debuted its freshest application server - EAServer 4.0. This version has more J2EE and XML muscle. SilverStream Software is sitting in the other seat - last week it unveiled its first application server with core support for SOAP, XML, UDDI and WSDL.

At least one group of IT pros thinks so. The SANS Institute says the program doesn't provide enough security training. It's offering MCSEs a free class to "patch" the void in their education.

It seems the Yorkshire Evening Post in the north of England ran a story on its Web site announcing "the mother of a queen and the last Empress of India" had died. This news was particularly surprising to the Royal Family and to the queen's doctor who was treating the 101-year old mother of the queen for anemia. Long live the Queen('s) mum!
