I like having Notes over Outlook for one reason only - Lotus Notes can be a nice all round communications platform for companies.
Be it, your hours claiming, your bookings of different sorts, your status reports and so on. With Outlook, I can barely run all those applications in parallel on a new ThinkPad T400 2GB RAM and C2D T8400.
Recently a Latvian participant to Eurovision was detained for several hours at the Russian border because the border guards were too stupid to figure out that his visa in his old (expired) passport and a new passport is a valid combination for travel.
Ha! That would have happened in US also. The embassy in my country told me to reapply, because my passport with 10 year visa is to expire. An expired passport, is an invalid document, therefore the guy was lucky they let him through.
In comparison entering and leaving the USA has always been quite eventless.
Having been in both US and Russia many times, I can safely say that entering Russia was less of a fuss, than entering US. Entering US, you get a feel like you are entering a night club with face control and the border guard can just not let you pass at his own discretion(based on how many of your kind are already inside?).
Yet entering Russia, you can safely know, that you are holding a valid visa, and they WILL in any case let you in, because that is Russian law.
Russia takes the cake for bizarre and restrictive immigration procedures
Sorry, but in Russia, unlike in US, a visa grants you a right to enter. (There is 0.01%, where visa has been revoked.) Otherwise, entering Russia, is no less prohibitive, than entering any other European country. The visa application process is quite bureaucratically heavy though, but usually taken care by the tour company transparently to the tourist.
The main reason is quite simple. The internal law enforcement in Europe is tighter than in US. There is very little need on harassing people at the gate. Need be, one country's police can chase you down into another country and get assistance from the local police force.
Consider the cultures. The Japanese will bow 10 times before *asking* you to put each finger on the scanner, while a US officer will be *ordering* you around. Because of this minor difference, the whole experience is dramatically different.
FYI: nVidia doesn't actually produce the graphics cards. Blame the solder issue on the actual manufacturers, there are a bunch of them. Some are HQ others are cheap. They are a design company, similar to ARM.
I my computers are online most of the time and I do not use AV on Windows. Why? I know how to detect and protect myself. If, you are smart enough to configure your Windows security policy, you are smart enough not to get any viruses in the first place.
PS: I never had a single virus on my machines.
You obviously do not understand the purpose of schools. The idea behind them is that they produce the citizens that can function in society. High achievers should go to special schools.
Scandinavians don't study in private schools in general. There was one research that I've read, that stated that when parents actually spend time with children on learning activities, children learn more. Comparison was between US, Canada and European countries.
When changing hardware components, like video or M/B, Windows installation is screwed up. Not once did my WinXP come up after I changed my motherboard. Just recently I upgraded my video card from a 2xDVI to a DVI + HDMI video card, Windows XP with decided that I need to reconfigure my whole video setup, while Linux just booted without any interactions with correct setup. That is inferiority of proper hardware detection in Windows.
Is there a particular reason you think your children will be vegetarian? A maybe a religion? Or will you just brainwash them into your way of life?
If you think that your children will fall in love only with a vegetarian(That would be messing with their lives very dramatically), then maybe some permanent changes may occur. But only if vegetarians really need to have bigger stomachs to digest the required amount of food.
Not "fittest" but "most adapted", is the more descriptive term here. And humans are the most adapted creatures on this planet. Even the roach is not as adapted, since we can live in the arctics, they cannot.
To my knowledge, American banks are that insecure. Normal countries force banks, by law, to protect their customer information under threat of heavy fines and termination of licenses. And that actually does the trick. I would probably "hang my bank consultant" if any of my information had been disclosed without my knowledge.
a hailstorm ruins a large percentage of crops you can bet economists will be going into a headspin on inflation when in reality it is no big deal as you much as it looks like on paper.
Why isn't it a big deal? It should be accounted for in details. And it's part of inflation and deflation. And food is one of the only items, that what it looks on paper is actually what it looks like in real life. Do you think people buy TVs, houses and other stuff one once a year?(Maybe someone, but not most.) And yet,you have to buy food every day, no matter what!
Or maybe we should just look at electronics prices, and see that we are in a downward deflation over the last 20 years? Just because it's nice to look at... Having something nice to look at, is called delusions and should be outlawed for scientists.
(For the uninitiated, this is one of the reasons Ruby and Python programmers can deliver code in a tiny fraction of the time it takes Java or C# programmers.)
If you add to that the number of additional unit tests required to release really quality piece of software, you end up roughly similar amount of time. At the end it all boils down to other things and least of all is the language choice.
Wii is now one of the most expensive consoles on the market for Europe. I was thinking on buying one, but now? Nooow way.
It is on (-10)*-40 Euros cheaper(depending on the ) than XBox 360 and Playstation 3, and Wii is without any normal data storage!!!
* - Yes that is a minus there, since amazon.de reports it as 244 Euros and XBox 360 is 234 Euros
PS: Germans, buy your Wii in UK it's cheaper there.
Reality check! People vote for and against people based on "perception" and it's only logical that that will spill over into real life. Perception is very important. Image(a.k.a perception) makes or breaks companies. When you go for an interview, you wear a suit, because perception rules a lot of issues.

You mean your name is not of European origin, right? Otherwise, american originated last names would be like Big Bhite Eage, or similar in Choctaw.
As a holder of US visa, VISA and fingerprinting are not mutually exclusive. You get your fingerprints taken during Visa application.
That would classify as extreme hurdling.

Easy, use GRUB

Have the server set-up in Panama? I bet that would help.

Hm... You have issues with that? Flash 10 works rather well on Linux in fullscreen mode. I have not seen any sluggishness for a long time now.
FYI: Good people to employ not only cost in salaries, but also in taxes. That is just logical.
