Sun Launches the First Three "Galaxy" Opteron Servers
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
After more than 18 months of development, the first three machines in Sun Microsystems "Galaxy" line of Opteron-based servers make their debut yesterday at the company's quarterly announcement event, which is being held in New York. There will be a lot of bad puns, such as Sun hitching its star on the Galaxies or people calling them "Becky Boxes," because Andy Bechtolsheim, Sun's founder and CTO, returned to Sun to create the Galaxies. There may also be accidental puns, since X and Z are really close on the keyboard and I keep typing "Galazy." READ MORE >

HP Rolls Out Improved Virtualization for Integrity Servers
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
IT companies use trade shows and user group meetings to energize various announcements, and Hewlett Packard was all set to use the HP Technology Forum this week in New Orleans as a means of talking about new products and services it was delivering to customers.
