We all know what this movie is gonna suck already. Sure there will be loads of SFX, fantastic sound, all kinds of CGI...BUT there will no story, character development, or good writing. Such is common in modern movies.
$94K for just NT?? Probably not, and if so, the exception. Most MCSE who can command $94K have a LOT of experience, and not just with NT, but also with Novell, Cisco IOS, etc.
In all the salary surveys I've seen, Unix sysadmins on average make a lot more than MCSE's.
Here in Silicon Valley, $60k/yr is a salary for a beginning-to-intermediate level sysadmin. $80k/yr to infinity are where the senior UNIX sysadmins are at.
Nice thing about UNIX is that you really don't need any certifications. Most employers know that if you know just Linux, you can handle Solaris, and vice-versa.
Women aren't becoming CS majors because they know almost all the women who are into computers are big, fat, and ugly lesbians who will never get laid! Computer jobs are for male geeks, not the kind for a normal female.
I've met a few female sysadmins in my life, and most of them are big, fat and repulsive. One of them had a moustach. One of them even looked large enough to be a sumo wrestler. God, I'm glad I didn't have to work with her. I would've thrown up if I had to.
Now, most women in computers don't start out like that, but thats how they end up.
Women belong in careers where they can look hot and feminine, such as marketing, sales, public relations, television anchoring, modeling, airline stewardess, striptease, teaching, day care, nursing, etc. Many of these fields are female dominated and pay extrememly well. No one has problems with that!
Most women are happy that they are not working with computer geeks as a computer geek!
Most guys will agree with me! When you go into a nudie bar, the LAST THING you want to see is someone who looks like a female computer worker!! The last kind of person you want to marry is a female computer worker!!
I think we are helping LinuxOne by creating this much publicity. As they say, bad publicity is better than none.
People respond to reverse psychology. If we all say its "evil", "bad", "forbidden", people are going to start looking at LinuxOne in a favorable light. Jist like drugs.
Of course LinuxOne doesn't need a business team. We are it!
Wasn't that what Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn said about Western culture invading Russia?
Anyway, we all know that right now Star Wars basically sucks, and is simply a money making machine.
George Lucas will come out with a DVD edition of every Star Wars movie everytime his business needs more $$$.
Rumor has it that there will be a remake of Return Of The Jedi on DVD that will show the Ewoks having their way with an unconscious Princess Leia on the Moon of Endor. They will be on sale at 7-Eleven will for $9.99, and will come with a special certificate of authenticity with a hologram of Jar Jar Binks.
WHO CARES?!?!? SYSTEM V UNIX IS STILL NUMBER ONE!!

Everyone knows that the OS of choice for running high end shit in the big house is a flavor of UNIX System V running on Big Iron RISC, like Solaris 64-bit on Sun UltraSPARC servers or HP-UX11 on PA-RISC HP9000 servers.
Let the kiddy admins and their point'n click GUI interface run their little server farms on cheap slow ass "Intel inside" hardware.
No Mac owner should forget this awesome game that came before Marathon. It had great graphics, but the real experience was in the sound effects. I remember playing this game in the dark on an LCIII and almost jumped out of my seat when a phantom, invisible except with two red eyes, came out of nowhere doing his scary sound. It was spooky!!
Besides a good story, there was plenty of gore, monsters bursting, and you had to manage a variety of ammunition. You got an AK-47 with regular rounds, sabot rounds, a grenade launcher, and all sorts of crystals.
Could it be that males and females, on average, simply use their brains in different ways? Could it be that on average males are more object oriented, more spatial oriented, and more impersonal than females are? Such qualities make good technies and geeks, but are not much good in other professions, say in law, teaching, politics, or in areas of business such as sales and marketing.
This does not mean there will be no females in computers, mathematics, engineering or physics, just less.
Even in other industrialized nations, societies, and cultures there are less women in geek fields. There may be more females outside the United States with advanced degrees in engineering because of better teaching, but most of them still either go into teaching or switch careers, instead of high level research or industry.
Is there anything wrong with this? Must males and females have equal abilities in everything? Is it wrong, say, if in the future, the majority of attorneys, law professors and marketing executives in the world are women? I don't think so.
Star Wars TPM is not going to be out on DVD??? THANK GOD!!! This movie was one of the worst movies of 1999, the worst Star Wars movie, and just plain sucks! I hope it is never released on DVD!!

Ever heard of places called California, Texas or Virginia?

I don't know about y'all but knowing UNIX, especially Solaris, brings home the bacon...and lots of it...if you know what I mean. ;-)

Now I'd pay $47K for that!!!
