Toshiba Posts $899 Million Profit for 2011
Toshiba has revealed its consolidated 2011 and Q4 2011 financial results, posting a 73.7 billion yen ($899 million) profit on net sales of 6,100 billion yen ($74.4 billion) for the year. This is a significant drop from the $1.7 billion the company has made in 2010; Toshiba blames the European debt crisis and the aftermath of the Great East Japan Earthquake for the lower results.
Jury Issues Partial Verdict in Google-Oracle Trial

Now, both sides want further clarification and actions from the judge: Google has motioned for a mistrial, and Oracle has motioned for the presiding judge to issue his own verdict. The judge will make his ruling on both matters later in the week.
