• Don’t install Windows XP Service Pack 3, yet

  A fundamental tenant of Defensive Computing is not to install newly released software. With Windows XP SP3, the reason to wait is software incompatibilities. Even though SP3 has underdone much testing, it’s a big world and there are bound to be problems with some software. By waiting, you let everyone else find and fix the problems before you face them.

  How long to wait? I’d give SP3 at least a couple months, maybe three or four.

  We’re creeping up on a year since I first got a hold of the Slacker Portable Player at SXSW in Austin. I’m pleased to see that the fledgling company has not lost track of its vision, and is indeed making good on all the hype. That’s right, folks: we’ve finally got our hands on a real, honest-to-goodness, working Slacker Portable Player. It’s about darn time, too. Actually, it’s in the knick of time, because t

• OSBC Report Jim Whitehurst and the fundamental g

  Last year’s Open Source Business Conference (OSBC) was opened up by Red Hat’s then CEO, Matthew Szulik. This year we’re hearing from Red Hat’s new CEO, Jim Whitehurst. Jim is very different from Matthew, but there are some similarities.

  The flipside of this is that it makes it really, really hard to make money in open source. At Red Hat, we cast a pretty wide shadow: We have thousands of customers and 80 percent (plus) share of the commercial Linux market. Yet my IT b

• What does your TweetCloud say about you

  Judging by my Tweet Cloud, it looks like I most frequently Twitter about hopping around the grid of Manhattan. My most-Twittered word is “going,” followed by words like “getting,” “home,” “time,” and um, “party.” After that, it looks like I Twitter about my job: words like “office,” “work,” “writing,” “coffee,” and “facebook” (the company I spend the most time writing about) are on there, too, as is “boston,” a city I like to make fun of a lot.

  Last year, when all this first broke, your lobbyists went to Washington and pressed the FCC to make sure there was open access. But you only convinced them to accept one of your proposals. Can you comment?
  Imaginary Schmidt: Sure, we still came out ahead. The regulators required the winner–in this case, Verizon–to let any device (or app, I should add parenthetically) to connect to a network using this spectrum.

  NEW YORK–What if you could get that coveted table for two at one of the hottest restaurants in town…by paying $25 for the reservation?

  New York’s famed Restaurant Week is fast approaching, which means that black books and BlackBerrys are filling with reservations aplenty. But this year, a new start-up called Tablexchange.com might put a fork in the system. The New York-based company has a simple model: it’s a marketplace for buying and selling reservations at chic, trendy restaurant

  In the “why didn’t I think of that” category, an enterprising couple of media types (Web designer Jona Bechtolt and freelance science writer Claire L. Evans) were so knocked out by the Steve Jobs Macworld keynote that they decided to create and market a laptop case for the new MacBook Air–based on the simple manila office envelo

• Semiautonomous orbs rock Yuri’s Night

  MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.–Corey Fro is chasing a large metal orb across the pavement at the NASA Ames Research Center here. He is desperately trying to make sure that the orb doesn’t crush a nearby robot.

  And as befits many Burning Man art projects, the 2008 version is sure to be new and improved. In fact, Fro said, the Xbox-like controllers were a big part of what’s new for this year: joysticks that can allow anyone to take very subtle control over the orbs.

• Microsoft reverses itself again on Vista virtualiz

  Microsoft had briefed reporters in June that it was going to expand Vista’s virtualization options, but then for reasons that were never made clear, it reversed itself and never announced such a move.

  As for the flip-flop in June, O’Rourke wouldn’t go into the specific thinking behind either the planned move or its reversal. “There was some internal discussion still occurring at the time,” he said.
