"...so this looks like just another nail in the coffin if the Zune." if the Zune, what...? oh the suspense is just killing me! why won't they tell us?!
why are you using exchange over a vpn? i could see file sharing but not for exchange. you should use rpc-http. all you really need is a signed cert with the valid FQDN of the server, and if you are big enough organization $60-70/yr isn't really putting a dent in your pocket. and if there isn't a connection available to the exchange server, you've eliminated the vpn troubleshooting; it's either their internet connection, or the server, and if it's the server you've got bigger problems.
we have at least a couple dozen customers that use rpc-http on a semi-regular basis, and not once have we had to delete their ost or create a new profile, not in the 9 mo.s i've been with this company, *unless* there is a problem with outlook itself that requires a complete reinstallation (usually it is bogus 3rd party software that causes it anyway).
you could also use an exmerge script that would backup the mailboxes to a pst anyway and have that added to the backups.
funny, on the occasional job hunt, it becomes rather obvious that the hr dept or hiring manager cuts and pastes a list of requirements for IT jobs and really doesn't consider their real needs, or have any idea what market worth of someone they are looking for really is. i'll notice "windows admin needed, ccna/ccnp, mcse required,.net/vb programming skills necessary, php and asp knowledge, 5 years experience w/ bachelor degree req., compensation $17/hr." i just laugh, and i'll usually see these same ads for weeks, or a few months in a row. i always wonder what kind of people they get applying for these, if at all.
...This isn't a case of an independent study finding a different result, this is the original report itself undermining its own principle... after reviewing this statement, i come to no other conclusion that the above "MosesJones" and his/her post displays borderline incompetence, due to the fact that s/he is unable to properly close his/her html tag with an </i>, thus causing confusion to the reader as to whether the comments above are his/hers, or merely quotes from the stated "article" as referenced in his/her title of said post.
he's calling his work borderline incompetence, and specifically his work for the RIAA in these cases. then he goes on to say exactly what parts he is looking at to come to the conclusion that his work demonstrates incompetence. i read the document, not thoroughly, but many of his points are valid. jacobsen claims he knows the methods and software mediasentry uses, then testifies he really does not. same for verizon and IP address distribution/allocation/whatever. to claim a vast, detailed knowledge about something, but only display the knowledge you really have and blanket it under a broad, generic definition of how something really is and/or works (then base a lawsuit around it!) is demonstrating [borderline] incompetence
i don't really want to rain on your parade, but i'd like to know if (and in the unlikely event of "if", when) a gov't-sponsered program has ever been eliminated? and when power that one administration has been "granted" has ever been retracted by the next? let's be real: it is power that these people crave and it is power that they will get - and keep, and, trust me (or don't), this includes obama, [especially] clinton, mccain. huckabee and romney, eh...paul i don't think so much, but he won't get elected by anything short of a revolution. i know there are other earlier candidates and maybe they really are interested in honest change. unfortunately they get destroyed by the public's (read media) interest in bullshit
i will have to agree. in light of michael richard's "incident" last year, i have come to realize that it is not the government or private enterprise that can be most damning, it is the very masses themselves, the average joe with a cell phone camera. don't get me wrong, i am not a fan of gov't lack of trust or corporate data-mining (maybe gov't data-mining and corporate lack of trust?), but watch out for your neighbor waiting to red-flag you.
hell i've got you beat. i built my machine, oh, 3 1/2 years ago, and running vista biz64 just fine. building it cost me $1100 tops, and i've put maybe $300 in a new amd dual-core, power supply, add'l 2GB memory and video card. i can play games decent enough on it (mainly rts), but there have been very, very few things i haven't been able to do on it.
They were one feared as a force that cannot be stopped. To now a huge company that bumbles at every attempt to modernize without any concern on what their costumers want.
Did you even read the summary? The MS exec's first thought was of the customers. Good grief. no, parent is right. nobody ever thinks of the costumers. all they ever ask for is a little respect, and maybe a sequin top or masque every once in a while, but that's it!
we have sophos and in my opinion the central management is fairly straight-forward, and there is a lot of control over AV, firewall, application policies. it can sync with AD containers so it detects new wkstns itself, and works with vista. the only thing is the initial setup and d/l is kinda weird, but if you've ever used norton it's not going to be any more confusing than that.
but oils used for cooking and consumption are biodegradable. keeping them out of landfills isn't really helping, but putting them there doesn't really hurt either. now if you had took the stand that they would break down and the methane given off would be burned for energy at the landfill then you'd have a better point.
then maybe you could help out with this, i've tried to block every known port that torrents use and it still did not defer any of that traffic.. i think you'd almost have to go out and have an application policy that denies the entire app, not just ports. i suppose the first time a student connects a wkstn to the lan it could redirect to an internal site that would install a firewall, for instance sophos, that has application policies. come to think of it, i believe cisco's asa has an addon for network application compliance or something, no?
anyway what do i know, i have yet to have anything over smallbiz experience.

pfft, tell that to tenacious d
yeah, no shit. when has a government (non-forcibly) agreed to reliquish any kind of power?
