In the words of Donald Trump: "Your Fired!" My ass would be out of a job even before I asked IT for a port to be opened. Especially at a Hospital, didn't you take HIPAA training? I had to do that when I volunteered at the info desk.
They could be using UbuntuOne registrations to estimate numbers. Its possible only 30% of users use UbuntuOne, so they take UbuntuOne numbers and multiply to get their user total.
What was the last version of Eclipse you used? you can use the search box in the preference pane to set all your preferences easily. Netbeans is way bloated, I can easily disble the eclipse plugins I don't want to use. That is what eclipse is, its a framework that is enhanced by plugins, that's its purpose. Netbeans likes to package a ton of crap in its wars, almost none of which are needed. I have used both the newest version of Eclipse and NetBeans and NB takes a lot longer to load, its only advantage I have is being able to run a server through the interface but Eclipse has a plugin for that as well. Netbeans claims that it is open source but Sun, I mean Oracle, has a big hand behind it. I hope the NetBeans lovers are ready to start paying for it, that's what Oracle does.
Most likely lockheed didn't own the boxes. They are government owned but managed by lockheed. SOmeone said earlier that they were probably illegally sold and that is probably true. Our HDs are all marked if they contain classified data, never leave the building unless they are transported by a cleared courier, and destroyed upon completion. Just not booting isn't the standard, they are totally destroyed, not going to work anymore. As for replacing PCs, it hardly happens, especially in classified environments. We run them until they are so old that the government doesn't use them anymore or they die. Even then, the harddrives stay.
I agree with entirely. I go to a big school that has a top 5 ranked CS program and guess what...they don't teach us to program. Sure you get some code snippets but they are examples when teaching the theory. Also, companies want someone who has people skills and works well in groups, you are going to get a more well rounded education from the liberal arts school than you would the specific trade school. Hope that helps, good luck in your selection.
