- 2007's Top 10 Underreported Tech Stories
Good that Snyder considers Sun is back in the game (we've sort of known that for a while now). Bad that he considers Java the new Cobol. Lots of interesting news there though with Open Source strategy and Blade servers.
- OpenOffice.org 2.4 PDF Import Extension

Maybe mine is not a "typical" PDF. Maybe this option isn't there by default with OOo 2.4 (RC6). Sounds like it would be a nice feature if I could get it to work.
