by Scott Bekker

SAN DIEGO — Microsoft on Tuesday formally extended support for all of its business software by a minimum of three years, clarifying the company’s support plans as ship dates for major Microsoft infrastructure products have slipped by several years.

BusinessWeek Online - On weekdays, Jeff Solof is director of Sun Microsystems' Web site. On weekends, he's a deacon at an Eastern Orthodox church in Worcester, Mass. But the 44-year-old father of two has a dream: When he hits his 50s, he'll cash in his 40,000 Sun stock options and become a full-time minister. Stock options "are a long- term incentive" to stick with Sun, he says.

Microsoft Java software gets a reprieve
until 2007 04/14/2004 02:14 AM
Users of Microsoft Corp.'s Java Virtual Machine (JVM) have an extra three years to drop the software and migrate to Microsoft's .Net or a competing Java product following the company's broad deal with Sun Microsystems Inc. early this month. Microsoft was set to end support for its JVM on Sept. 30, much to the dismay of developers who built applications to work with the software. Now Microsoft has extended security patch support for its JVM until Dec. 31, 2007, Brian Keller, a Microsoft product manager, said Tuesday. Security patches are the only support Microsoft currently provides for the JVM. "This is certainly very good for many of our customers. It means they have over three additional years to migrate their applications. In some cases those applications were already set to retire before 2007," Keller said. The extension was agreed on in the settlement and collaboration pact Microsoft struck with Sun Microsystems Inc. early this month.

Microsoft will continue to support its Java virtual machine till September 2004, a nine-month extension that will make it easier for customers to find substitutes for the software.

The extension was largely implemented for the convenience of the software-buying world, according to representatives from Microsoft and Sun Microsystems. Microsoft has recently been encouraging customers to eliminate its Java virtual machine (JVM) from their desktops, notebooks and servers pursuant to an out-of-court settlement with Sun, but the transition is taking longer than anticipated.

The Internet Search on Mobile Race

"IDC analyst Mr Keith Wayras expects 30 million people, or 17 per cent of US mobile subscribers, to use the web on phones in 2006,while currently in Japan about 44.8 million people, or 58 per cent of internet users, access the web on their mobile phones.Internet access will be available on most of the approx 600 million mobile phones expected to be sold worldwide this year.While it is already possible to run a Google search on phones, it is not always easy with websites built for desktop computers and not small-screened devices.This article says that "Google itself said in April that if it doesn't launch products that improve Web searches on handheld devices, it will fail to win a significant share of an increasingly important part of the online market."The article goes on to analyse Microsoft,Yahoo and AOL's moves in the internet search on mobile race.

Possibly off to Microsoft in October

Possibly off to Microsoft in October 09/08/2004 05:15 AM

Received a interesting e-mail today from someone at Microsoft. I will be calling in the morning to verify this is a real person in Redmond and not some scam. If it turns out to be the real deal I will be headed to Redmond to get a look at a product line. I am going to refrain from even saying what the product is. Needless to say I have some experience in the subject matter and would love to get in on the testing. I have a crazy schedule in October but I will simply have to clear the calendar for the two days the meetings are on. Typical NDA stuff will apply no biggy I have worked within the constraints of NDA's for a long time.

This could turn out to be fun.
