 SCO vs. IBM: Lengthy battle could hurt Linux - TechUpdate - ZDNet   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
One reason Sun might be in the clear, or at least not as high up in the food chain as others, is that the Linux distribution that ships with Sun's Intel-based systems is Red Hat's.
But, in the same way that many have accused Microsoft of subterfuge, Sun is the other company that is at peace with SCO and that also has a version of Unix that runs on Intel architecture.
When Sun's Schwartz tells me that "Solaris, especially on Intel, is going to be such a hit when we start migrating HP/UX and AIX customers," he is clearly predicting a rosy future for Solaris on Intel.

 RPGamer - Preview - Megaman Battle Network 4: Red Sun & Blue Moon
For those not familiar with the Battle Network story, the series involves a boy named Lan who uses his personal information terminal (PET), Megaman.exe, to fight viruses and computer hackers in a futuristic setting where most objects in the real world are hooked up to the internet.
As in previous titles of the series, battles take place on a 3 x 6 grid, half of which is controlled by Megaman.exe and half of which is controlled by the enemy.
During battle, Megaman.exe has access to five "battle chips", which are randomly chosen each turn from a folder that can hold up to 30 chips.

 Battle Beyond the Sun/Star Pilot
Originally released by Filmgroup/AIP, BATTLE BEYOND THE SUN is one of the American films that excises footage from a Russian sci-fi potboiler (in this case “Nebo Zowitt”) that economically brilliant Roger Corman bought cheaply to insert into four individual titles.
Whereas those three had the advantage of new scenes with favorable American cult actors, BATTLE BEYOND THE SUN has zero stateside thesps and is mostly dull as dish water.
AIP’s original trailer for BATTLE is present on the disc, and the brief liner notes on the back are done well and are amusing.

 IGN: Mega Man Battle Network 4: Red Sun Review
Mega Man Battle Network 4: Red Sun and Mega Man Battle Network 4: Blue Moon are, admittedly, entertaining additions to the series established on the GBA platform more than three years ago, but we just can no longer get excited for a new story in the same old environment.
Mega Man Battle Network 4 once again puts players in control of Lan and his virtual pal Mega Man. In the future, everyone who's anyone has their own virtual persona that can tap into the Network world and run around as if it were the real world.
But in Battle Network 4 it looks like the designers were ready to give the heave-ho to the refresher course, since it's far more abridged and quicker paced this time, which means that the game isn't quite as accessible to newbies as the previous sequels were.

 Sun, Microsoft are battle-worn combatants | CNET News.com
Sun filed a private antitrust lawsuit Friday against the software giant for its handling over Sun's Java software, among other issues.
Sun sued Microsoft in 1997, charging that the Redmond, Wash.-based company breached its contract by trying to extend Java so it would work differently, and presumably better, on Windows computers.
In fact, Sun is the driving force behind the Liberty Alliance, a coalition of technology companies that aims to create a universal online registration and identity system that rivals Microsoft's own efforts with its Passport authentication service.

 Mega Man Battle Network 4 Red Sun for Game Boy Advance Review - Game Boy Advance Mega Man Battle Network 4 Red Sun ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Mega Man Battle Network 4 continues the trend, but this time around, the upgrades are so minor that there really isn't much here that wasn't done just as well in the previous game.
You can combine Navi and attack cards during battle to switch Mega Man's elemental affinity and change what his cannon does, but this method is more convoluted than just picking different styles from a menu, which is how the previous game handled it.
Besides being able to battle your friends and transfer battle chips between two cartridges, this new game also lets you send tournament data back and forth--a process that allows players with one cartridge to collect rare Navi cards and unlock events that would otherwise be exclusive to the other cartridge, and vice versa.
