Reg- They may be smart in some areas but as far as handling anti-trust very dumb. I also think they did not consider the risks in some of their financing activities like put warrants and over reliance on stock options for employee compensation. These might have looked attractive intitally but now will most likely be costlier than any gains they achieved. As far as development. Win2000 Server and IIS looks like a good choice for rapid deployment. I also ordered a copy of SQL 2000 Beta 2 for evaluation. For training purposes NT 3.51 Server, SQL 6.0 and JDK 1.1.0 meet my needs but it's also nice to be looking ahead. I'm also looking at the free market Apache Server and Linux. Harvey

Symbian signs Sony Relief all round at Symbian as the first company not holding shares in the outfit inks a deal for software to run its next generation mobiles. Sony suits today extolled the virtues of Symbians EPOC OS in London as it revealed its plans for 'Entertainment' cellphones coming to a store near you next year. The new Sony phones will feature email, MP3 music, video and IP broadcast technology, plus the ability to send video and still pictures, first shipments promised for 2001. Symbian CEO Colly Myers refused to be drawn on whether Sony would join Ericsson, Matsushita, Motorola, Nokia and Psion as shareholders in Symbian: "It's possible there will be other shareholders, we're keeping an open mind." Also smiling at the press conference was Texas Instruments, whose 0.10 micron technology DSP chips will be at the heart of the new phones. © theregister.co.uk
