    Google Checkout I use weekly - not quite sure where the failure is there.

    Google Coupons is being reborn thanks to Android.

    How did you establish how much data Google had collected about you?

    You're not concerned about the data those alternatives are collecting about you?

    I doesn't matter how "clear" you are, someone will find a way to twist your words.

    Key assumption.

    Replicate
    1. The action of copying or reproducing something.
    2. A copy.

    I guess it all depends on your threshold of a copy.

    Instant access to hundreds of millions of a dollars that makes these super short trades possible.

    Optical media is definitely more flexible than hard drives. ;)

    Yet somehow you've been able to operate to date without issue? Are broadband data caps causing a problem or was this simply "look how many GB my dick is!"

  14. Re:Home business on GE Bets On Holographic Optical Storage · · Score: 1

    Home class data usage = home class connection.

    Business class data usage = business class connection. Regardless of where the business is located.

    So the production and consumption of new physical optical media is needed because cloud backups are impractical because (ab)users don't want to pay for business class internet for a home business?

  15. Re:Day late and a dollar short on GE Bets On Holographic Optical Storage · · Score: 0

    I see. Because you use a petabyte of data a day, everyone must, so cloud backups are impractical for everyone.

    If you're pushing 500GB a month to and from home, you're doing something wrong.

  17. Re:Day late and a dollar short on GE Bets On Holographic Optical Storage · · Score: 1

    Google and Amazon both offer those levels of storage - it's really just finding a decent connection.

    Home and Business uses need to be separated.

  19. Re:As a Mac admin, I agree. on Why IT Won't Like Mac OS X Lion Server · · Score: 1

    Thanks, but that technically didn't tell me anything. Just because a company use Google Apps doesn't mean they're definitely using Gmail as the client.

    We're on Google Apps, but everyone prefers to use Outlook, much to my chagrin.

    I provisioned a Macbook Air this morning with Outlook but had to set it up for IMAP. What I was coyly asking was whether or not he was using IMAP or had another [desktop client] solution.

    What email client do you use on OSX? I see Google doesn't make Apps Sync for Outlook 2011 yet.
