- Quote: "(One other programmer on the team did recognize Cooper as "the guy who dumped on programmers" with the book about the inmates running the asylum.) After a long talk in which I explained that there was in fact a large and respected body of academic background and real-world practice backing up the consultant's methodolgy, I think he felt a little shook up at least because he began to understand there was a large portion of his professional career about which he was entirely ignorant." Saying there is a "large and respected body" of knowledge and experience backing personas will come back to haunt you if anyone you say it to bothers to investigate the claims. There's no agreement on what personas are, how to make them, or what they're used for. |

- Chuck Talk writes "According to Sara Yirell of Computer Reseller News, Microsoft has filed suit against a VAR in the United Kingdom market for selling what it is calling "parallel import" software. What this actually means is that the company being sued has taken the business-wise step of importing software made in a different global market due to the lower cost.

The new company, which had its formal coming out party launched on Monday, was founded in 2002 by a group of ex-Hewlett-Packard executives including Bill Worley who was the technical director of PA-RSC and PA-Wor. The latter project eventually evolved into the first generation of Itanium processors. What is driving the company is its belief that there is yet to... |

Both vendors a couple years ago drew up big plans for a unified data store across messaging, database, applications, which they promised would simplify data management. Well, IBM has jumped ahead in a piece of that vision. Big Blue confirmed this week that the forthcoming Lotus Notes Domino Version 7 will offer the ability to store Domino data in IBM DB2.
