Williams, Jr. security@tomco.net ISP Programmer / Engineer ---------- Forwarded message ---------- SunWorld: The Unix Professional's Power Tool http://www.sunworld.com Dear SunWorld Subscriber: Sun isn't saying anything officially (or releasing any details), but it's expected to announce two new workstations on January 13, 1998 -- the Ultra 5 and Ultra 10. Find out what we've heard. http://www.sun.com/sunworldonline/swol-12-1997/swol-12-sunspots.html Also, in case you missed all the kerfluffle about Sun's recent deal to port Solaris to Intel's next-generation IA-64 platform, you can read about it here. Pundits are saying it may spell the end of SPARC. Sun says no way. http://www.sun.com/sunworldonline/swol-12-1997/swol-12-merced.html OK, so you know about ISDN. But how well? Do you know the difference between its two flavors, basic rate interface and primary rate interface? Though this technology has its detractors, SunWorld columnist Rawn Shah says it's here to stay. So you might as well learn about it. http://www.sun.com/sunworldonline/swol-12-1997/swol-12-connectivity.html Another of our columnists, Adrian Cockroft, covers Sun's updated Symbol Engine (SE3.0) release in Solaris 2.6. Find out what's new. http://www.sun.com/sunworldonline/swol-12-1997/swol-12-perf.html Happy holidays, Robert McMillan Senior Editor SunWorld http://www.sunworld.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- To stop receiving such messages, send email to swlist@fdds.com with a subject field of: UNLIST sunworld guru@tomco.net Questions?
