SMB Tech News Today; 4/3

* Vista gets new licensing options. The Redmondites just issued two new licensing options for Vista Enterprise customers. Option one covers diskless computers, option two covers a client version of Windows on servers so users can run them elsewhere virtually. (Source: InfoWorld)

* Online ads to surpass radio. This is good news for both SMBs and InfoWorld, which just went online-only as of yesterday's last print issue. Meantime, a study from ZenithOptimedia is forecasting that Internet advertising will grow another 28.2% in 2007 which will put it ahead of radio--though I think those are UK numbers. (Source: PC World)

* Spam soars and targets SMBs. MessageLabs just issued numbers stating that spam levels have jumped 76.3% just in Q1 of 2007. And guess who most of it is aimed at: that's right, we hapless SMBers. I hate those guys. (Source: InformationWeek)

* Deepfish followed closely by Minimo. Actually, Deepfish is following Minimo, because the latter is actually being released while Deepfish is only an early beta. But Minimo is definitely behind in terms of press. But it is available and does support Windows Mobile 5 or higher, so give it a shot. Available here. (Source: PC World via Yahoo)
