Welcome to the afternoon edition of the iTnewswire.

This afternoon, Australian ISPs are reluctant to sell security under a managed service arrangement, according to Trend Micro.

Enterprise buyers should seriously consider Intel's newly developed quad-core chips in their short-term IT plans, but should also take software licensing costs and application suitability into account, Gartner has advised.

Most telecommuters are aware of the security dangers of mobile devices and remotely logging onto their employers' networks, yet their behaviour largely contradicts that awareness, says a recent report.

Industry executives met Google's marriage to YouTube with mixed reactions on Monday after the Internet search giant agreed to acquire privately held YouTube for US$1.65 billion in stock.

Yahoo and Yahoo Telemundo are creating a digitised time capsule that will beam onto an ancient pyramid in Mexico and into space.

What will the aliens make of earth circa 2006? Has quad core got more? Why not mail your comments?
