I would use one of these SSDs on a Desktop Computer or a Server, because in those two situations I am looking for performance, rather than portability that I would want in a laptop.
I don't blame him at all. There is far too much incompetence out there regarding data security. I am lucky to work for a company that listens, but I have quite a few friends who work for companies that don't seem to give a damn. It's a shame.
I remember seeing a setting for something called "Bloodhound Heuristics" when fiddling with the settings in Norton AntiVirus, and this was over five years ago. It certainly looked proactive to me.
I have found USB external hard drives to be excellent for the purpose of backing up data from either a laptop or desktop. There are also external hard drives sold as one-touch backup solutions as well. Make sure the data is encrypted or the hard drive is physically locked up, because an external hard drive is easy to swipe!
Corporations and the community are not one in the same. A corporation may contribute to the community but it is certainly not representative of the whole community. The 'double standard' assumption for the whole open source community in this article is flawed.
Robberies spiked on paydays near cheque cashing storefronts in specific neighbourhoods You have got to be kidding me! I mean, No Way! You must have to do so much data mining to figure this one out!
It makes me wonder what Microsoft's security qualifications really are for a signed kernel level driver. How much do they really try to crack in to make sure that it is secure? Or do they just trust ATI to take care of this and sign anything they release?
Good thing you're not a network administrator for a school.
Because a better administrator would leave it WIDE OPEN?
A filter is not taking responsibility for the content that is out of the school's control on the internet. Rather, it is doing the school can to block it out. Laws that protect the school from legal liability do not physically filter content in order to protect children. - It is designed to protect the school in the case that a student sneaks by the filter OR in the case that if the school had no filter.
It does not mean that the school is better off legally or morally without a filter, and having a filter does NOT revoke all your legal protection. Having a filter in place supports the fact that the school did the best they could to prevent it, and the legal protection would do much more to help for the things that they just can't control.
...I would seriously consider putting content blockers and black lists on the back end of the network (so that the students couldn't disable them). For one, it is to protect the children, and secondly, to protect the liability of the school.
Slashdot Mirror
Big deal, people will move up when they need the capacity, and when the price goes down...
It looks like the link has been slashdotted already. I am getting a "Service Unavailable" error.
This actually makes sense! This could actualy be beneficial to cyber security! Who would have ever thought?
Good luck with that? I can.
Guess he didn't have a lab (or decided not to use it). I've been guilty of that before... :P
Unless you are one of the slaves who is forced to use Microsoft, and therefore your protest abilities are rather slim to none.

Just pay your neighborhood friendly computer geek to install the upgrade for you. You aren't forced to go through the Mac store.
At least you can put on record that you tried to implement more security, and it was rejected, so therefore beyond your control.

I would have found it amusing but don't because I'm not five and also, what you just said.
if I was friggin' five years old!
I'm sure China will be among the first countries to regulate safety requirements for this.

Just like paid surveys...
How would you know that people aren't just making things up to get the money? Just because you pay them doesn't mean the results will be correct...
Then again, Google is a search engine, and it's not like everything you find on Google that is web based is correct anyways...
Encrypting the laptops may be a better option, still allowing the portability of data yet rendering the data unrecoverable to a thief.

Novell... you have redeemed yourselves... maybe.
Good point, Windows is almost ready for a networked environment! All kidding aside, I agree - Windows has come a long way in the security area.

The RIAA has to grow up and realize that DRM free music is a great marketing tool!
