I love using street view to check out neighborhoods before calling about a rental or house for sale (usually a link from craigslist). I in fact used it today to show my boss a house I am looking at to rent. I like street view, it is a useful tool (the address locations could be improved).
As long as you don't have a bunch of outlook specific in-house or third party extensions/tie-ins to outlook you may be able to get away with the exchange server and outlook web access. Think about going with thin clients and makes things much easier to manage. The boss still keeps his laptop (they do make thin client laptops too but that's just silly) so you will still be stuck with SMS or WSUS (Neither are perfect) pushes while still saving a lot of time. I don't know that much about zimba or other outlook/exchange solutions/work-a-rounds. The cost should be less than replacing the desktops with thin-clients , if you want to stick with a windows based shop you could still have a Linux box pull up a Citrix desktop with a metaframe viewer. With Virtualization you can provide a method to keep in place old processes that mahogany row or clients want to keep in place (do remember too much virtualization is bad especially on database servers). So basically do what your boss decides.
For many businesses IT outsourcing agreements are a way of life, with a good contract manager any contractual agreement or metric not met will be dealt with according to contractual agreements. $4000 is cheap compared to what most contractual penalties are, if the lunch meeting for hooha big wig #3 with big new potential client is ruined by said outsourcing company $4000 is the least to be worrying about (see CYA). my.02$
Damn it Slashdot, now I am going to need to find a zip drive to pull my old samples off to fill the sample library. I like how you are able to see the code that the effect modules or "Machine" (this with the binary installer too). So good job, I had some fun. It even sounds better than rebirth (don't ask it was a long time ago).
Here is how a friend and I took care of a box of HD's that needed to be completely unreadable. It has some cheesy dialog, but basically Oxy-Acetylene torches work great...
When I was taking Discrete Mathematics, the professor was always trying to rope a couple of C.S. Students to work with math majors on interesting problems (competitive math...). So knowing how to program is a good thing, knowing how to do math on anything other than your Ti-** or Mathematica (rocks!). Statistics is a very important class, yet they way they teach it is boring.... I am a C.S. major, the math is fun after you finally give up hating it (a good professor that actually gives a shit helps)...
Back to your subject, I think not only math majors should take some applied programming classes, but those who are in chemistry and biology need to model systems and knowing how to program before you have to learn on your own in the workplace would seem to be a great thing to me. (end of the run-on sentences for now)
Laser TV has existed for a long time using Argon (blue, green) and Krypton (red) lasers as a white light source (either mixed gas or two lasers) The color is chosen using an AOM or a PCAOM (see a patent for laser TV at: http://www.freepatentsonline.com/6426781.html ).
The new breakthrough is that we have solid state Diode Pumped Solid State lasers (specifically high power DPSS), you should be familiar with the 532nm green laser pointers. The green is achived through frequency doubling 1064nm infared DPSS lasers. Red lasers need not be frequency doubled because they can manufacture Diode lasers to that frequency and is available in higher power ranges. Blue DPSS lasers were developed, usign 808nm infared lasers frequency doubled, the power available is still really low, (and I can't wait to rip apart a blue ray drive to get the laser out!) and the lasers are extremely expensive. Hopefully with greater production of blue lasers the prices will go down.
The next issue to deal with in the U.S. (I don't know austrailian law) lasers are regulated by the FDA and any laser over the power of 5mw that exposes radiation to the public has to have an FDA varience to legally operate. I am wondering how this TV would be classified. I really would prefer a solid state DPSS laser projector to replace easily broken, expensive to maintain, LCD projectors. If you need more information about this technology sam's laser faq, and the guys at alt.lasers are nice and answer questions.
OracleXE is a pretty nice product for your under 4gb database running only 1GB in Memory. It is also packaged with HTML DB 2.0. With with a little work can meet many institution's reporting needs in a little database application. You still get the cool stuff like PL/SQL and SQL reports or the dummy click here for data columns. Backing up is an issue that needs not to be ignored (you have to do it the way the only way or your shit out of luck). Database dumps don't cut it in the case of htmldb . It works fine for your data but not your applications (especially if the DBA accidentally deletes your workspace...)
That company is silly, now those people cannot get an MRI if they needed one without having the silly thing removed. Besides that we don't know if the chip will migrate, or be pulled out by the magnetic field from an MRI. Bad company, bad sheep that work for them getting chipped.
I was just about to say the same thing. I have my Enkelaar Theremin in the other room and it makes lovely electronic music! My Wife even used it in her senior composition recital. Now electronic music is mostly just samplers, MIDI, and a digital audio editing suite. I know after working at many shows many so called live performers simply bring in a rack of equipment hook up their rack mounted outputs and hit play... Yes they twiddle with knobs and such but half the equipment isn't even hooked up.... Fun stuff it is all in the spirt of a show. Now back to my theremin...
I went there in January and of course went to akihabara (electric town). In Japan they limit the time that a retailer can sell products. Due to this they can only sell the newest products. They also do not like to buy used products as much as people in the US.
Umm well who will pay for them? Well the people who want network access. Problems I see here are just physical, how to get around or over the mountain. Solar powered repeaters?
Critical thinking is the most fun part about learning anything. I suppose I should have said I also have read plenty of books, and done personal research which I cannot get any credit for. I do know that even if I take a course which has covered topics that I have studied for personal gain, I will get a better understanding with the course. I took a partially web based course this semester, it worked well.
With online courses you get exactly what you said. The biggest thing you are getting is credit. I have read lots of books, just reading them doesn't mean I learned anything. Credit is good.
If it ain't broke don't fix it. I loved the learning software on the apple II's at my grade school. At home I had better computers a C64 and an Macintosh IIsi at the time and still liked playing Oregon Trail.
I think they need to add wireless so one can record to a bsse station as bandwidth permits. I have been wanting to build something like this for awhile, I was going to use a single board computer and wireless + a screen of some type. I may still.
I own two guns, three if you count my potato gun:p! All are rifles, handguns were only designed to kill people. A.22 for plinking, and a 30.06 for hunting. Gun saftey classes should be required for all gun owners. Although I do not think that all transactions need to be reported.

I just wish I could get the LP for less than $300!

With red,green, and blue using a AOM or PCAOM you get millions of colors.

My 2 cents.

werd to that, I should move there next week!
werd to that! I do the same, A's in my CS classes B+ in semi-interesting classes, and C's in the boring ones...

I wouldn't mind the laser gyro. I know they can be made quite small thanks to diode lasers. Hmmm send me the chips after you can't hotwire it!

since when was it may yet?
I would like to see a few more finder a gui options. A few of the things I would like to see: desktop panes, speed improvements, faster boot time.

I own two guns, three if you count my potato gun :p! All are rifles, handguns were only designed to kill people. A .22 for plinking, and a 30.06 for hunting.
Gun saftey classes should be required for all gun owners. Although I do not think that all transactions need to be reported.
