AMD's processors still possess an upgrade path. I have no idea what you're talking about.
AM2->AM2+->AM3
I personally went from Windsor->Agena->Deneb without switching motherboard. Some time later, I upgraded my motherboard and kept my Deneb. I'm now thinking of upgrading my Deneb to a Thuban.
If only they would do that here. There's a local ISP here called Cloud 9 Internet which has EXCELLENT service. I'd much rather use them. However I'm forced to deal with Verizon (who don't even know how to route a CIDR block to me) to get my 35Mbps symmetric connection. It' infuriating.
I agree that the most important thing right now is mostly physical labor, but I imagine there's some kind of transitional phase where having people with counseling and networking backgrounds WOULD come in handy.
But those professionals will be needed for much longer than a week. Going there for a week means getting into the swing of things and then leaving. The startup and ending of a worker's involvement with a project are the times when they work at their least efficient.

This one melts right through them.
And itself.
I'd doubt there are more people on Itanium VMS than on VAX. LOL
I'd buy that shit. The only thing that would lure me away from it would be a 2012 Pinto!
Ummmm.... try again. That's not the New York Times. That's The Washington Post.
Weeks, huh? I have machines with uptimes measured in *years*.

Manifest destiny might imply that *everyone* lives in the U.S., but they don't know it yet.
Fuck China *and* fuck GoDaddy.
Good Lord. Please go read the Constitution.
No, I think the typical user might find thumbs more comfortable.
It depends on where they were planning on putting them...
Farts are mostly air.
I don't know about that. These days, the closer you get to the CPU, the more Harvard things get.

Only if you count in 32-bit complement arithmetic. I know I don't.
My Verizon plan has unlimited text.
World of Warcraft?
Don't we already have pretty large turnover in these jobs?
You're thinking of DEFCON 1. DEFCON 5 is normal peacetime. DEFCON 1 is preparedness for an imminent attack.
The proper response is, "And you are as dumb as a box of rocks."
It depends on what the company does. We're 7 IT staff for 200 on-site workers. But what we do is heavily dependent on IT.
Guess what, that's a minority.
That's 4 years before win95 came to the market without a TCP/IP stack. A network-based software activation was certainly a couple years ahead.
Just because Windows is backwards, doesn't mean various UNIXes didn't already have this feature.
Or someone has a vocabulary big enough to use the word "ludicrous" without having learned it from a Mel Brooks movie.
Apparently to me, the implication is that a "good Catholic" should support censorship because it leads to a more "moral" society.
