Open source, free, or demo Middleware
What kinds of Middleware is available to get without having to pay a lot? If free, it is better. I'll even settle for a demo version.
The headhunters are asking me what kind of Middleware I have worked with or at least tried.
Stuff like IBM Websphere and ORB comes to mind as ones they asked me about.

There's a demo version of WebSphere.
[link|http://www7b.boulder.ibm.com/wsdd/downloads/red/newcomerappserv.html|Here], I believe.
I just happened to be reading about WebSphere today.
Edit: nixed a superflous quote. Promise to use 'preview' in future :)
On and on and on and on, and on and on and on goes John.

JONAS or JBoss, IIRC
Both of those are free I believe. Actually, I'm sure with JONAS.
You can probably get a demo copy of BEA WebLogic as well.
I wouldn't call those middleware. They're J2EE servers. There are middleware components to them, yes, but the whole thing is more commonly called an application server.

I thunk...
...Forte was their free Java IDE?
I could be wrong... but a while back I downloaded something of that name from Sun and it was an IDE.

There are at least two, prolly three, Fortes in computing
- Sun's Java IDE (apparently based on [link|http://www.netbeans.org|NetBeans] -- check out their History page...)
- [link|http://www.forteinc.com|Forte Inc], makers of newsreaders Agent / Free Agent
- And something more, I think; some maker of heavyweight CRM or ERP apps or something... I think.
