Novell Rumored to Restructure Any Day Now
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
The rumors have been running around fast and furious that commercial Linux distributor Novell, which also still happens to be the sole seller of the proprietary and declining NetWare network operating system, will undergo a more radical restructuring any day now. The reports in various IT trade rags say that Novell could layoff anywhere from 10 to 20 percent of its 5,800-strong worldwide workforce. The announcement was expected yesterday, on Halloween, but all Novell sources would confirm with me is that there would be no announcements on October 31. READ MORE >

Chip Wars: Intel vs AMD, IBM vs Intel
The chip wars are on, says Brian Kelly in his new book about the processor chip business.
Intel, the dominant chip maker in the world, is a household name, but there is a question about whether the giant chipmaker is still the technology leader it claims to be. This book answers that question and gives you information you need to know to understand what's inside the engine of your computer and why the old maxims no longer apply.
Buy Chip Wars at the IT Jungle Online Book Store, value priced at only $29.95.

Intel Pushes Out Itaniums, Replaces Future Xeon MPs
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
If you are a server maker or a server buyer who is anxiously awaiting those dual-core "Montecito" Itanium processors from Intel, well, you are going to have to wait a little longer to get your hands on one of those chips. Intel last week quietly pushed out the delivery date for the Montecitos to sometime in mid-2006, which had the cascading effect of pushing out the rest of the Itanium roadmap as well. But, as if to make up for it, Intel moved forward some new bus technology for the future Xeon MP server line. READ MORE >

NEC and Unisys Forge Deep Server and Services Alliance
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
When Unisys announced two weeks ago that it would be laying off some 3,600 employees--about 10 percent of its workforce--as part of a major restructuring, it hinted that it would be moving some work offshore. Last week, we found out where some of that work was going: to Japanese server maker and former rival NEC, which has just signed a broad and deep technology alliance with Unisys to, among other things, create and manufacture a future line of servers based on Intel processors.
