HIGHLIGHTS

FEATURE: Linux/Windows research results under fire
IN THE NEWS: Lindows.com to change name outside the U.S.

ITWHIRLED: In math, computers don't lie. Or do they?


FEATURE

Latest Linux/Windows research reports questioned

Large questions have appeared over the accuracy of two recent reports
comparing the relative costs and benefits of the Linux and Windows
operating systems in which Windows was painted as being superior to its
open-source rival.

POLL: A new GNOME

GNOME 2.6 is now available.  Do you have it up and running on your
desktop?

*I do, and it looks great
*I do, and I regret it
*It doesn't seem worth the trouble to upgrade
*GNOME? Please, I use KDE/CDE/FVWM/my own home-brewed desktop
*GUIs are for weaklings - real Linux hackers use the command line

Tell us!
http://open.itworld.com


LAST WEEK'S POLL RESULTS:

Novell now owns both SuSE, which has been the main supporter of KDE, and
Ximian, the project that backs GNOME. How will this combo affect Linux's
long- running desktop debate?

16.7%  At long last, there'll be an end to Linux desktop environment
confusion
14.3%  One of the desktop environments will eventually lose out - and
that's a shame
69.0%  I don't care what Novell does - it's Linux, so I can run any
desktop environment I want


ITWHIRLED

In math, computers don't lie. Or do they?

Mathematical theorists trying to resolve classic problems don't trust
computers to do the job - even when they have apparently succeeded. Case
in point: A leading mathematics journal has finally accepted that one of
the longest-standing problems in the field - the most efficient way to
pack oranges - has been solved.

<font color="#FF8100"><strong>&#155;&#155; LAST WEEK'S POLL \
RESULTS:</strong></font><p>

<font color="#62472B"><em><b>Novell now owns both SuSE, which has been the main \
supporter of KDE, and Ximian, the project that backs GNOME. How will this combo \
affect Linux's long- running desktop debate&#063;</b></em></font> <br><br>
<font color="#62472B"><em><b>16.7%</b></em></font> - At long last, there'll be an end \
to Linux desktop environment confusion<br> <font \
color="#62472B"><em><b>14.3%</b></em></font> - One of the desktop environments will \
eventually lose out - and that's a shame<br> <font \
color="#62472B"><em><b>69.0%</b></em></font> - I don't care what Novell does - it's \
Linux, so I can run any desktop environment I want<br><br>

<p><a href="http://www.itworld.com/jump/OPENNL/www.itworld.com/itwhirled/"><strong>Kepler \
Conjecture proves produce clerks had it right all along</strong></a><br><br> \
Mathematical theorists trying to resolve classic problems don't trust computers to do \
the job - even when they have apparently succeeded. Case in point: A leading \
mathematics journal has finally accepted that one of the longest-standing problems in \
the field - the most efficient way to pack oranges - has been solved. </p>
