Wed, 19 Nov 2008 00:00:00 -0000

"All of this adds further evidence to the fact that IT is undergoing the most fundamental shift since the advent of the Internet. I think we’re rapidly approaching an age in which any software application will be available on any hardware platform at any time."

Wed, 16 Jul 2008 00:00:00 -0000

Thanks to Convergence, i 6.1 Shops Get PAVE Linux x86 Emulation

Mon, 21 Apr 2008 00:00:00 -0000

“PowerVM Lx86 is a productized version of Transitive’s QuickTransit emulation software, which in this case allows Linux/x86 binaries to run unchanged on Power-based AIX or Linux servers.

Solaris SPARC to x86 software highway opens, x86 to SPARC highway planned

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 00:00:00 -0000

“QuickTransit for Solaris makes sense particularly for those ISVs that spent a lot of money creating software for SPARC servers during Sun’s late 1990s boom. Some of these companies have been reluctant to invest in crafting fresh versions of their code for x86 systems. Now they can just hop aboard Transitive.”
