Another virtualization environment

I guess by now a lot of you know that there are virtualization solutions from Parallels and VMWare out there. Just today I found another player in the market and it is even an Open Source solution under the GNU license.

So if you want to try out the new kid on the block then head over to VirtualBox and grab your copy of their virtualization product. Good thing it is available on Windows, Linux and MacOS X. We haven't tried it yet, but sure will do so.

Apple rumor website shuts down

Wow. ThinkSecret, one of the high traffic rumored sites, shuts its doors. Here is the statement by ThinkSecret:

" Apple and Think Secret have settled their lawsuit, reaching an agreement that results in a positive solution for both sides. As part of the confidential settlement, no sources were revealed and Think Secret will no longer be published. Nick Ciarelli, Think Secret's publisher, said "I'm pleased to have reached this amicable settlement, and will now be able to move forward with my college studies and broader journalistic pursuits." "

Well this statement are good words, but if you read between the lines you can see that there is no real winner in this. Anyhow, RIP ThinkSecret!
