Windows Incompatibilities Frustrate D.C. Schools
capouch writes "The Washington Post reports that school administrators for the DC public school system are having an awful time getting their new administrative software to work properly." From the article: "'In my experience, the combination of an Oracle database, Windows operating system, Unix hardware and an Apache webserver is a bad combination,' Barlow wrote in the memo to Thomas M. Brady, the school system's chief business operations officer. 'In fact, through our research the last few days, we have found an advisory on the Apache website that states, 'Please note that at this time, Windows support is entirely experimental and is recommended only for experienced users.' The Apache Group does not guarantee that the software will work as documented or even at all...Barlow said officials plan to replace Windows with a different operating system."
We were just working on fixing some web template errors with my friend, and we discovered that the copy of IE on our computers does not register and tags... yet every other browser did.
That's M$ for you!
Go ahead and laugh. The Internet will probably archive my post for all of eternity. We'll see who's right eventually, and who will get the last laugh.
Meh.
I say we put DC Councilman (and former Mayor) Marion Barry to work on the problem.
He'll snort and sniff and get to the root of the problem!
A couple of them are pretty girls, but I could have done without the foot-licking and the cutter.
They've gotta be German. What the fuck is it with Germans and licking feet?
