09/23/2004 07:26 PMAP - It looks like the U.S. billionaire's club isn't quite as
exclusive as it once was. There are now 313 billionaires in the
country, the largest number ever and a huge jump over the 262 counted
last year, according to Forbes magazine, which Thursday released its
annual ranking of the 400 richest Americans.

07/29/2004 06:30 PMForbes.com - Microsoft executive Martin Taylor's schedule is packed
with meetings like the one in June when he met with representatives
from French drugmaker Aventis in his Redmond, Wash. office. Aventis
has tied together groups of computers running not Microsoft's
operating system but the freely available Linux. These
high-performance clusters can analyze proteins at blazing speeds.
"That's great for Linux," Taylor said cheerily, at the time.

07/29/2004 06:30 PMForbes.com - Kenneth Denman, chief executive of networking services
provider Ipass, decided to pull the trigger last year and take his
company public. Ipass had had five successive profitable quarters, but
customers were balking at buying products from a small, privately held
tech company with a Silicon Valley address. And who turns down a check
for $98 million?

Forbes magazine that much; their
general worshipfulness about business seems both less useful and less
entertaining than some of the other magazines. Recently, someone who
claims to be the producer for the βForbes Radioβ channel on
American Airlines is spamming me several times a month, offering a
three-minute puff piece for $4,995, a special discount from $11,990
for anyone lame enough to answer spam. Would Forbes be lending its
name to this sort of pathetic silliness if it werenβt hurting?

(keyboard, video, monitor) devices, which allow technicians to run
multiple servers using a single computer terminal. Avocent has outsize
gross margins (58%) on this stuff. In the first half sales rose 23% to
$174 million, though it lost $5 million due to an
acquisitions-related charge. The stock's multiple: 73.

want upgrades. Matas predicts world chip output of 142 billion in

and other software from companies like Oracle. But last year, when
Sabre was building a new computer system for online shoppers, Murphy
took a flyer on a database program from a little-known company in
Sweden that charges only $495 per server computer, versus a
$160,000 list price for Oracle. Guess what? The Swedish stuff
works great. ...

07/29/2004 06:30 PMForbes.com - Forbes 400 member Steve Jobs garnered nice publicity for
his Apple Computer last month by calling and congratulating a Kansas
college student for downloading the 100 millionth song from the iTunes
Music Store. Left unsaid: Apple had predicted that milestone would
come much earlier, on the product's one-year anniversary in April, but
found itself 30% short. One reason: disappointing results for a
promotion rolled out amid much fanfare in Super Bowl TV ads. Apple,
offering free-to-the-public downloads using codes written on Pepsi
bottle caps, expected 100 million hits right there. ...

Linus Torvalds. Torvalds oversees Linux development, but he delegates
pieces of the system to the 25 or so code maintainers,like Trond
Myklebust at NetApp.Maintainers in turn break their projects into
smaller pieces, overseen by submaintainers.

08/20/2004 10:48 AMForbes.com - The latest craze in software: giving stuff away. BEA
Systems, Computer Associates and IBM all recently started releasing
the source code, or underlying instructions, for some programs, which
amounts to distributing those products free. Even the loosest
definition of incentive rebates would probably stop short of 100%
discounts, but then the economics of software are peculiar (see story,
p. 161). The giveaways were celebrated, especially by the noisy
"open-source" movement, which wants all software distributed this way.
(They're not kidding.)

Jobs--Apple's chief executive, patriarch and media impresario--let his
employees know he would be out for a month to recover from surgery to
remove a rare form of pancreatic cancer. Patients with this type of
cancer, called an islet cell neuroendocrine tumor, have a 90% survival
rate, especially if treated early. Apple says Jobs is due back in
September.

08/19/2004 06:28 PMForbes.com - Not long ago most corporate computer managers viewed
open-source programs like MySQL as toys fit only for hobbyists. But
then Linux, an open-source operating system, became a smash hit in
corporate sites. Now the folks who embraced Linux are snapping up
other bargain programs such as Apache, which serves up Web pages, the
MySQL database and scripting languages like PHP, Perl and Python,
which are used to create Web pages. So many companies use the
combination of Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP (or Perl or Python) that
they're described with the acronym LAMP.

06/30/2004 12:35 PMForbes.com - Victor Grillo Jr. has been selling gadgets on television
for 15 years, though you probably couldn't pick him out of a lineup.
If you watch late-night TV you certainly know the products he's
introduced, including the Ginsu 2000 knife (20 million units sold,
says the 38-year-old Bostonian), the Buttoneer, Liquid Leather and
Triple Edge Wiper Blades. He also claims to have unveiled the first
national prepaid cell phones. Grillo has been content to stay behind
the camera, buying and tracking media, producing TV commercials and
organizing fulfillment operations. "Too fat," he says. ...
