May’s The Remediator Security Digest has an enjoyable article that shows you how you can have fun with coworkers and learn a security lesson. Don’t worry, these donuts don’t have any calories! I used to do monthly metrics. I liked doing the work, but coming up with better metrics was a whole ‘nother animal. I couldn’t [...]

Windows Mobile 5.0
May 19th, 2005 |
The software formerly known as Windows Mobile 2005 has a new name: Windows Mobile 5.0. Mr. Gates announced the new release last week.
