Read Full Story   [IMAGE]   [IMAGE]   Office XP: Open for business  Industry analysts say Office XP is financially the most important product Microsoft will ship this fiscal year. But the software giant will have its work cut out for it, as there's little in the way of incentives to get businesses to upgrade.  May 31, 2001, 9:00 a.m. PT  |  Read Full Story  [IMAGE]  When wireless turns sluggish  Last weekend, San Jose, Calif., resident Joe Curcio began tracking how often his Sprint wireless Internet connection actually worked. The results were distressing: The service was sporadically down for a total of 8 hours each day. Curcio is one of a growing, increasingly vocal group of Sprint customers around the country complaining that the company's high-speed wireless Internet connections aren't working as promised and that Sprint hasn't followed through on repeated promises to fix problems.

In a notice posted on its Web site, the Apache Software Foundation said its public server--which handles mailing lists and stores source code for all foundation projects--was illegally accessed earlier this month. The intrusion was quickly discovered and the server was taken offline.

The lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Illinois against Digital Wireless Technologies seeks damages of $1 million, plus $25,000 for every day since Jan. 1 that the e-mails have been sent, or $10 per e-mail.

PeopleSoft is set to unveil Monday additional features and applications that will round out PeopleSoft 8 CRM, its newly introduced collection of customer-relationship management software. CRM software helps a company manage its front-office operations--that is, sales, marketing and customer service.

Now, the Microsoft chairman is spinning his own urban myth for the millennium generation: Clippy's demise. Clippy, the cute but much maligned animated paper clip introduced with Office 97, was given his walking papers by Microsoft recently as part of a $30 million marketing campaign promoting Office XP.
