Singularity - http://research.microsoft.com/os/Singularity/ I have it running in Virtual PC. http://www.perfectreign.com/?q=node/92 Seriously, I hear more and more about where the market is going. Oddly enough, it is going towards big iron - in a way. I was talking to our CIO last night (election night - we were at work until 3:00am) and discussing their strategies. They are running Win 2008 servers fully supported (thanks to the MS/Novell deal) on Xen inside SLES instances running on a zOS mainframe. In one example, there's a web page - hosted by websphere running on SLE 10 on one instance of the mainframe, accessing data hosted by a MSSQL 2008 server running inside a Xen machine under the same SLES machine and accessing data on IMS and DB2 databases on other machines. How's that for interoperability? -- kai www.filesite.org || www.perfectreign.com Clean out a corner of your mind and creativity will instantly fill it. - Dee Hock -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
