The week in review: WorldCom's apology. CEO John Sidgmore goes to Washington to apologize and to pledge that financial irregularities are in the company's past. Also: Intel readies its upcoming Itanium 2 built for two speeds.

First post after a painless install. It's really hot today, over 100 F in the afternoon.  A great day to go to a movie with friends. 9:08:36 PM    comment []
