Welcome to the afternoon edition of the iTnewswire.

This afternoon, Microsoft will post links to rival security software makers in the welcoming screen for Windows Vista, the company has said, another appeasement to a competitor who has raised questions about the developer's monopolistic position.

The Reuters news agency plans to open this week a newsroom in the online virtual world Second Life, a 3-D fantasyland where members are building a real multi-million-dollar marketplace.

Yahoo still plans to beam a digitised time capsule into space, but the content will not be sent to or from an ancient Mexican site.

Advanced Micro Devices seems set to gain more market share as its bigger rival Intel works through a turnaround that's not expected to pay off until next year, according to financial analysts.

A judge in the US state of Florida has allowed the sale of Rockstar Games' new game, Bully, by dismissing a legal complaint against the company.

Does AMD or Intel have the lead in your organisation? Why? Is a game, just a game? Mail your comments.
