Oubliez le G5. Les futurs Mac carbureront aux puces Intel/AMD "Here's a prediction: In less than 18 months, you'll be able to buy an Apple Macintosh computer with an Intel (or equivalent) processor inside. The machine will be able to boot either Mac OS or Windows, although it might not come with Windows preinstalled." Tellement évident. Mais tellement évident. 12:12:29 PM  Permalien

Interface utilisateur, design et femmes Boys, boys, boys. The rarity of women in the field of technology makes it hard to establish good networking opportunities. "It's a great shame, because women are particularly good when it comes to the usability of a site," says Austin. "They are good at giving and taking advice, and when they design a page they tend to be concerned not just with how it looks, but also how it works. It may sound stereotypical, but men are often so carried away by the beauty of what they have designed they forget to think about whether it is user-friendly."

Doutez-vous encore de la puissance et de la qualité de Linux? Big names bang Linux drum "With the exception of Microsoft, most of the computing industry's largest companies now actively support Linux. The last sellers of the high-end computers called servers moved into the Linux camp when Sun Microsystems reversed course earlier this year. Chipmakers AMD and Intel support Linux as well, as do software companies such as Veritas, BEA Systems, Oracle and SAP." 11:55:56 AM  Permalien

Le logiciel à code source libre au secours du développement d'applications Web Un bon papier de LinuxPlanet. "The continuing economic uncertainty is making free software look attractive to a growing number of companies. For many organizations, the standard practice in Java-based Web application development now is to develop using open source tools like Jboss or Tomcat. While many companies, particularly larger firms, then typically switch to commercial Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) application servers like BEA's WebLogic or IBM's WebSphere, some companies are choosing to deploy their applications using open source software." De quoi soutenir la croissance de logiciels Open Source comme SPIP. 11:51:02 AM  Permalien
