- ISA Server 2006 doesn’t run on Windows Server 2008. Only Forefront TMG will support Server 2008. Check this FAQ
- The Virtualization Congress in London I blogged about is cancelled. Not enough registrations. Hard times.
- Review: VMware ThinApp 4.0. I like ThinApp, but it is too expensive in my view.
- Network Access Protection Design Guide is live! NAP is quite complex. Plan several weeks training for learning it.
- SharePoint Server 2007 Whitepapers now available And Sharepoint is web collaboration without cloud computing.
- GoDaddy hosts Exchange to offer first desktop mail service. This is cloud computing without web browser.
- Microsoft releases SCVMM 2008 beta exam Being a VMM expert will certainly increase your job chances. It is a great tool.
- Winfuture has quite a few Windows 7 screenshots. I only see minor changes to Vista.
- Mono 2.0 (.Net for Linux) is available. I still don’t believe that powerful platform independent apps are possible.

Eclipse is very, very powerful and it is very, very multi-platform!
I think we use the term “multi-platform” differently. As far as I know, there are different compilations for Windows, Linux and OS X. Therefore, Eclipse is not a multi-platform app in the sense I meant it. Did you ever wonder why Eclipse is not a Java application?
Eclipse *is* a Java application
Score one for you. I just saw that there are different binaries which lead me to the wrong conclusion.
