The schedule came out late - by the time I received it, I'd already booked my travel arrangements - and ended up missing the keynote and some sessions that I would have liked to go to.
The only sponsored session was snacks/drinks... and listening to an author talk about his (non-technical) books for what seemed like an eternity.
The wireless network - while steady and up this year - had a crap-ass interenet connection that was less stable than a fainting goat.
All in all - the conference seemed haphazardly organized and last minute.
Get one big system and a VMware license... saves lots of space and hardware costs... plus - when you aren't running the other systems... you have one kick ass box.
Non-compete agreements are very hard to enforce in Canada... the idea being that you should be able to earn a living... though US companies still get them into contracts here since they're 'boilerplate'
The 'escaping' staffers are pretty much in the clear...
I can't believe they're even seriously trying any more, what with this and their blatant misreading of copyright law claiming that licenses allowing multiple copies to be made are invalid.
The problem is this: there is no downside for SCO... they can say and do anything without fear - and there's the very remote chance that they might win something. It's like buying lottery tickets.
There needs to be a downside for crap like this - once it's proven to be a complete fabrication. Imprision the CEO for his company's wilfull purjury... seize their assets... stop all business functions. Basically - a lethal injection for the company.
You can bet shareholders will have something to say about overly litigious companies then!
So if a government agency wrote and released free software (and the source code was open)... no matter the platform (as open doesn't mean it has to run on linux) then people wouldn't use it because it was free and open?
I think you have a few errors in your logic.
As for the hobbyist... not all open source software is written by hobbyists... some is actually done by commercial ventures...
Seriously, there will be a signal to noise ratio to begin with... but the concept of related information - it's like if someone did "pop up videos" information blurbs for all your computing needs...
So until you can start adding extra memory units to your brain - something like this may prove itself very useful indeed.
All dsl lines are owned by the major telcos... the CRTC forces them to let smaller ISPs resell the lines (bulk pricing allows for profit)... services (email etc) and the actual pipe to the internet are provided by the ISP... but the dsl line is owned and supported by the telco.

...I litterally started to salivate at the prospect of a cluster of this magnitude.
How can you mention the thinkgeek sysadmin section - and not mention their sysadmin pageant?!?
yeah yeah... but it was safe.
here's another that's safe for you: Goats: the comic.
The symposium just wasn't as good as last year.

Doesn't affect me one bit.
Seriously, they're just punishing their loyal customers. I love it.
...and some players enjoy having a rule set to play within.
There's more to RPGs than just the rolepaying... take away rules - and it might as well be acting not a game.
He doesn't mention the need for performance testing... or the need for high-availabilty.
Your arguments are spurious given the problem space provided.

I want to make sure Steve Balmer can't get through a doctor's visit/border crossing/stop light without getting a full rectal exam.
For crying out loud...
He bought them in October.
...and this project is based out of Canada.
Obvious link.

Love the game - finished it a couple of times... and still play it (getting Ramza to near godlike status is a hobby)...
I don't have a GBA... but might consider getting one it FFTA is as good...
How does DT2 (or even 1) compare to these? I realise that it is tactical... but is it strictly military? Are magic and monsters in the game as well?
"chopping brocoli!" and "i have a dog now!" are two of my personal favourites...
Class Action Lawsuit...
Seriously folks... there's gotta be a lawyer out there thinking about this... getting all of the American linux community together and suing SCO...
Mmm... the warm glow of that thought almost gets me past my anger that SCO stories foster...

I don't know... but the way he scrambled to make sure it didn't show would lead you to believe it was nasty...
;)
He did say it was embarassing...
...and yes, I think you will find it useful.

Last I heard US laws don't apply in .au
Does Australia have an equivalent?
So I am ripping everyone off by providing free games?
Oh, right, don't feed the trolls.
Here's one at my workplace...
What takes hours on this system could take weeks on a "super-powerful single machine".
