    Greetings,

    This week we are focusing on SunNetwork 2003 Conference in Berlin, and
    Sun's announcement of Java Desktop System and Java Studio Creator.
     
    Java Desktop System is nothing more than Sun's over night idea of
    bundling up Java, Linux and StarOffice into one package which with
    their trademark Java would sell. While Java Studio Creator is supposed
    to be an easy-to-use environment for Java development.

    Come to site to read more news, articles or discusions about java and
    open source.

    Until next time,

    with more stability, manageability, and usability.
