That is also true, but many organisations still like to keep things in house for security/privacy reasons. Of course that becomes undone when companies try to cut costs and do security on a budget.
I'm surprised to hear that no one else has encountered this, I installed OOo 3 yesterday and today had to install the dictionary. Perhaps I broke something in a directory somewhere.
I always need to download the English dictionary, altho it is turned on by default, only after I download a dictionary, close OOo then reopen it will the spell checker actually start working.
This is only a problem on first install, once I get it working it does continue to work from then on, but the first time I did this was a real pain because I didn't know why it wouldn't work.
But until open office gets a built in spell checker it can never ever succeed. Users don't like jumping through hoops and solving cryptic puzzles just to enable a spell checker.
black boxes in cars is the stupidest idea I have ever heard, it quite easy to see what happened by looking at most crashes, serious crashes are studied by the police. Technology owned by people with a financial interest in car crashes should never be used to determine cause.
You mean I actually got it right? (It was a guess)
Walking is for people who leave their desks, we/.ers can't be expected to know much of the world beyond the basement, except what google earth shows us.
Slashdot Mirror
Don't tell them that!!!!
Twitter was designed to keep all the attention seekers and idiots occupied. It is imperative that they remain within their illusion.
What would your toilet tweet?
"Currently receiving heavy load"
"Chocking after last nights curry"
You can't protect people from their own stupidity, it's a rule of life.
and what will standing up archive?
Except get yourself in more shit.
But these are just security guards aka rent-a-cops if they work for am track.
You can't expect someone to be able to decrypt all the contents of their computer, it's just a totally unrealistic expectation.
I have dozens of gigabytes of stored data that isn't mine, hence I cannot be expected to decrypt it.

Apparently bug reporting is considered inappropriate, the integrity of slashdot moderators never ceases to amaze.

Racism, or personal opinion?
I thought everyone was entitled their own opinion.

What do you consider "unworkable" about the alternatives? Off the top of my head, there's Gmail + Google Calendar.
How are those to even a possible replacement for exchange?
The reason companies supply email to their users is to keep all the data in house, otherwise their employees could just use their own email addresses.
Like they say every year?
Google should have just removed content and stop using the plaintiff as a source, it's not like there is any shortage of sources.
Since when does ownership give you any rights?
Just think DRM.
That's what mine was supposed to look like.
You have to account for all the people who don't keep windows updated. So add at least another million and we are probably getting close.
Such EULAS are invalid, you can't stop people from removing or modifying software which they own. Re-distribution maybe but not removal.

I would have honestly expected a University to have more important things to do.

That obviously only exists in the us, Australia has privacy laws preventing such a gross invasion.
Another historical discovery for mankind no doubt.
