Users are getting more impatient as Sun waffles on the Solaris 9 on Intel decision. COMPUWARE MAKES J2EE EASY FOR BEGINNERS | vnunet Compuware is taking pains to take some of the pain out of learning J2EE.

It offers domain patterns and a pattern editor that let developers do some tweaking within the business model for an application. IBM PUSHES ALTERNATIVE TO .NET | eWEEK IBM doesn't want Microsoft to take all the Web services thunder.

A 7-year-old boy in the Gaza Strip made mincemeat out of the MOUS, passing with flying colors and earning a certificate usually reserved for taller, older grownups. Evidently a certificate for learning multiplication tables wasn't enough for Anudeep Bhaskar. Not only did he master the Microsoft material, he overcame the hostile nature of his surroundings. Because of Israeli air strikes, the electricity was knocked out for long periods, so Anudeep couldn't even get on his computer much of the time. No word what he'll do with his MOUS -- maybe he'll skip third grade and go directly to the pros.
