VirtualBox Delivers Free, Multiplatform Desktop Virtualization | eWeek
VirtualBox is an able hypervisor for running guest OSes with a minimum of
fuss and even less money. Sun Microsystems' VirtualBox desktop
virtualization
software is a surprisingly full-featured, no-cost alternative to VMware
Workstation and Parallels Desktop that's well worth the consideration of

This isn't how a jet pack is supposed to look, is it? Hollywood has
envisioned jet packs as upside-down fire extinguishers strapped to people's
backs. But Glenn Martin's invention is far more unwieldy -- a 250-pound
piano-
sized contraption that people settle into rather than strap on.

Software goes to bat for major league umps | IBM
