The problems are so severe, Smarthouse claims, that the newly reorganized Windows group is pulling in programmers from Microsoft's Xbox game-console division. However, blogger Alec Saunders doubts that the problems could be that bad -- if so, he writes, Microsoft would be pushing Vista back to 2009, not 2007. Microsoft's own blogger Robert Scoble checked into the story and got a denial from an executive at Microsoft's PR firm, who says he's not aware of any Xbox programmers working on Windows. Microsoft is now targeting next year's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas as the launch event for the consumer version of Windows Vista. One reason for the delay, and for the possible involvement of Xbox programmers: Microsoft now plans to include functions from the Media Center edition of Windows, which can record TV shows and play photos, music, and videos on a TV, into its mainstream opera...Fri, 24 Mar 2006 23:21:00 ESThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/23/technology/microsoft_management/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/23/technology/microsoft_management/index.htmMicrosoft shook up the management overseeing development of its Windows operating system Thursday.Thu, 23 Mar 2006 11:23:00 ESThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/22/technology/microsoft_outlook/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/22/technology/microsoft_outlook/index.htmMicrosoft stock sank Wednesday, a day after the company delayed the launch of its new operating system, but the biggest hit from the delay will be taken by companies other than Microsoft itself, industry analysts said.Wed, 22 Mar 2006 15:01:00 ESThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/22/markets/markets_newyork/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/22/markets/markets_newyork/index.htmThe Dow rose to its highest level in nearly five years Wednesday as gains in the financial sector, an easing of interest-rate worries and uplifting earnings news fueled positive sentiment.Wed, 22 Mar 2006 14:50:00 ESThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/22/markets/markets_nyopen/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/22/markets/markets_nyopen/index.htmTechs slipped at the open Wednesday, after Microsoft said it will delay releasing its new Windows Vista operating system.Wed, 22 Mar 2006 14:19:00 ESThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/22/markets/stockswatch/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/03/22/markets/stockswatch/index.htmTechnology stocks looked to take a hit at Wednesday's open after Microsoft's decision to delay the introduction of its new Windows Vista operating system.Wed, 22 Mar 2006 10:42:00 ESThttp://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2006/03/20/8371814/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2006/03/20/8371814/index.htmClay Shirky can be counted among the lucky few who not only appear to have mastered the wired world (and the wireless one) but also get paid to decode it for the rest of us.

But now, TechCrunch reports, you can buy space on Amazon.com's servers. Unlike Google's Gdrive, though, Amazon's online-storage offering isn't meant for consumers. Amazon, whose servers already host terabytes of book-cover images, music-CD reviews and sales data, is offering online storage space to companies who want to store their own data. The new service could make it easier for startups to build new services without worrying about buying and maintaining their own storage servers, writes former Goldman Sachs analyst Michael Parekh on his blog.Tue, 14 Mar 2006 17:39:00 ESThttp://money.cnn.com/2006/01/03/technology/intel_chips_fortune/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/2006/01/03/technology/intel_chips_fortune/index.htmAt the same time Apple is shifting to Intel microprocessors, Intel is planning a new generation of chips and technologies designed to make notebook computers smaller and less power hungry, and home computers that will emphasize music, video, games and photos.Tue, 03 Jan 2006 22:48:00 ESThttp://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2005/12/12/8363107/index.htmhttp://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2005/12/12/8363107/index.htmIn 1975, Frederick Brooks published The Mythical Man-Month.
