Sun Wrings Profits from a Flat Fiscal First Quarter
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
Server and software maker Sun Microsystems continues to struggle to grow its revenues as it undergoes product transitions in conjunction with changes in the IT market. But, because of tight cost controls, Sun has been able to boost its gross margins in the fiscal 2008 first quarter ended September 30 to a seven-year high, and that means it was able to book a slight profit. This is the fourth quarter in a row that Sun has brought some black ink to the bottom line, albeit a small smear of black ink at that. READ MORE >

Intel Quietly Releases 'Montvale' Itanium Kickers
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
It is hard to say why, but the launch of the 'Montvale' Itanium 9100 kickers to the current dual-core 'Montecito' Itanium 9000 processors could go down as the least enthusiastic launch that Intel has ever done for a microprocessor.
