The stories behind the technologies eWEEK Labs evaluated this week are as interesting as the products themselves.

9 Best of eWEEK.com
The best of eWEEK on the Web includes a video in which IBM’s Sandy Carter discusses the potential of social networking in the business world, a video on the DDoS attacks that disrupted government and private sector Websites over the 4th of July holiday, and a careers blog commenting on where the IT jobs are. (Hint: You’ll find lots of monuments there and a house that is white.) We’ve also rounded up the most popular reviews and slideshows from Labs so far this month.

Labs@Work
eWEEK Labs evaluated the new Office 2010 Tech Preview, and found that the productivity suite includes the expected—but welcome—enhancements to core applications. However, 2010 represents a sea change for the suite, as the apps will be available as rich, Web-based versions that will perform as well on Firefox and Safari as they do on Internet Explorer.

15 Jason Brooks With Chrome OS, Google has done what many other vendors—including Microsoft and Apple—should have but didn’t.

18 Quantum DXi7500 excels at enterprise disk-based backup.

20 Sun xVM VirtualBox 3.0 adds SMP capabilities.

22 Sun OpenSolaris 2009.06’s most compelling new feature is the Crossbow network virtualization system.

26 Firefox 3.5 puts Mozilla back at the head of the pack in the browser race.

28 Cameron Sturdevant What would it take to switch from VMware to another virtualization platform? Right now, a lot.

29 Jim Rapoza Now that Google has taken Apps out of beta, maybe other companies will follow suit and return “beta” to its traditional form.

30 Andrew Garcia Microsoft Security Essentials is unexceptional in the best sense of the term.
