Sun has released Solaris 9 12/02 -- the OS that comes bundled with the Sun ONE Application Server 7 and running on Intel x86 hardware. The media kit comes with BEA WebLogic Server 7 -- possibly to avoid any hard feelings on the part of BEA. The application server won't work with the Intel release of Solaris 9 12/02 until later. NEW SUN EXEC TALKS STORAGE STRATEGY | SearchStorage Rich Napolitano, the former CEO of Pirus Networks and recently anointed vice president of Sun's data services platform group, gives SearchStorage.com some insight into Sun's approach toward virtualization, its storage competition and how it all fits together. http://searchstorage.techtarget.com/qna/0,289202,sid5_gci874332,00.html ABERDEEN: HARDWARE IN FOR A STUMBLE, CHINA WILL SHINE IT spending worldwide will be driven by software sales -- at the expense of hardware -- through 2006, according to new research by Aberdeen Group. In its report, the research firm also predicts that China will vault past some venerable IT nations in the near future.

Channel partners aren't thrilled because the bonus program does not include them. MICROSOFT TAKES A STAND ON ENEMY TURF | Computerwire Like Pepsi doing a taste test at a Coke convention, Microsoft is setting up a stand at the LinuxWorld Conference and Expo in New York. About 15 of Redmond's troops will be there to preach the Windows gospel to Unix users who may be riding the fence and persuade them to run Windows on Intel rather than Linux on Intel. MS will also flex its Services for Unix at the expo.

The head of Monster.com, a man whose job depends on the accurate resumes of others, apparently fudged his own resume. Jeff Taylor took credit for having a special kind of Harvard MBA, but there are two problems with that: Taylor doesn't have a graduate degree in anything, and Harvard doesn't even offer the kind of MBA that Taylor said he received. A double fudge! Taylor said he didn't mean to get creative with his credentials and that the whole thing is a misunderstanding.
