John Simmons is a gentleman. He won't reveal the first words that entered his
mind when he heard that his company's application service provider (ASP) was
going out of business.
Simmons, a senior vice-president at the Greeson Co., a privately held food
broker
headquartered in Grand Rapids, will reveal only his second thought: "We've
got to act quickly."

By Anne Barnard, Globe Staff, 11/19/2002
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center's computer system crashed repeatedly over
31/2 days last week, periodically blocking access to patient

to the paperbased systems of what one executive called ''the hospital of the
1970s.''

thousands of hours of classic (and not-so-classic) programming, moments in
history, even advertising, have we shared, briefly, over the decades?

By Laura Parker, USA TODAY
WASHINGTON — The arrests of John Allen Muhammad and John Lee Malvo in the
sniper
attacks here last month were in some ways a triumph of technology: A federal
database matched a fingerprint from an Alabama slaying to Malvo in two hours,
after a caller boasted on the phone to police about being involved in a
shooting in
Montgomery, Ala.
