    YOU care if your WORK laptop is stolen? LOL Why should you? Its not YOURS. It is up to the company to provide adequate (HD sector encryption) to secure their data not the employee when at HOME is THEIR OWN TIME not the COMPANIES: Btw I no longer work from home unless its during office hours :)

    The reason they cannot get the ribbon right on their own products is that the Office team don't support other teams INTERNALLY! I know this for a fact and this is how bad Microsoft is as a company. Every Product unit lives in their own little island being selfish.

    While GSM has ENCRYPTION it is rarely ENABLED, they use the GSM ENCODING as way to keep it "private" usually on mobile networks due to the cost (processing power) of the encryption, and the fact governments dont want it used and the fact that they can charge more for this service.

  17. Re:Yeah right on Russia Plans Its Own Moon Base · · Score: 1

    Really? What planet do you live on? You have no idea what it is like to work at the likes of Microsoft. There is so much red tape, process and PAPER, yes PAPER that you wouldn't believe. So much for the paperless office. Every stairwell and hall here or spare room has at least 2 or 3 LARGE volume printers! and there is many per building. The paperless office is a MYTH. Why do you use US letter or A4 size for your PAPERLESS DOCUMENTS you create? Yes, to PRINT them. Do you realise how many copies are printed before it becomes "final" and signed off? MANY and that is not including your own personal print outs.

    Taxes do NOT pay for SERVICES, they pay off the country DEBT to the WORLD BANK. Get that out of your mind for a start then you will realise what you are paying for.

  19. Re:Socialised Healthcare is the future for the US on Massachusetts Makes Health Insurance Mandatory · · Score: 1

    Doesn't most if not all of your taxes go to paying off the World Bank for most countries rather then the services you "think" you get? China is buying up all America's debt from the World bank too. Most if not ALL countries are in debt to the World bank. Bankers run the world, not the governments.
