Idiots on our roads can't handle two dimensions(forward/backward and left/right), what makes anyone think that a third(up/down) would be a good idea? Also, I sure as hell don't want some moron CRASHING INTO MY HOUSE because he's decided to fly home from the bar after a few beers.
Use VoIP now. Just tunnel it through SSH or some other protocol. I hate people talking on the phone as much as the next guy, but I'd make a call just to spite them.
Your IP is interesting only if there is a vulnerability to exploit, so they can turn your PC into a spam-spewing zombie. In that regard, I prefer to be boring.
People fear change, especially rapid, drastic change, and especially dumb IT managers and CIOs....and we all know there's no shortage of them. Adoption of Vista may be slow at first, but eventually they'll pony up and fork out the dough.
Make it so each switchport that has a desktop connected can only communicate with the switchport with router attached. This will prevent PC-to-PC infections across the LAN, unless spread by email or some other means. The rest of the battle you will have to fight with strict policy and good user education.

"Call your reps my fellow Americans, this is still our country!"

Is anybody else seeing the humor in an application called "EOL"? (end-of-life) ?

While I have to agree with you, please remember that there are 49% of us who tried to make a difference in the last election.

I kept thinking there was going to be a punchline somewhere.
A one sentence summary would have done nicely -- "I fecked up my board because I have no clue."
