Foster's group has 45% share, not the beer called "Foster's", which is actually quite hard to find inside of Australia.
Given they're owned by SABMiller, you should really argue that "miller" is the bestselling beer in Australia if you're going to say that the owner == the brand (which is obviously incorrect).
This is not for home users, it's for corporate environments. You've obviously never managed one (successfully) if you're asking things like "why should people in finance NOT BE ABLE to run a debugger".
Windows can map your "home" directory to a network share just as easily as linux can. That had nothing to do with what I said about user control.
How does DHCP control where your home network share is, and auto-change it when you move offices permanently? If you're in Dallas, and move to LA, you'd want your default network storage server moved to one in LA.
If accounting buys 3 new computers, with linux how do you install all of the software that accounting needs? In a windows network you simply add those machines to a group, and next reboot the entire list of software attached to that group gets auto-installed.
If you don't want people in HR to be able to log onto your web servers, while still using 100% network based logins and not local accounts, how do you manage that in a large way (hundreds/thousands of servers) in linux?
I know how to do this in Linux, and it is not as easy as in Windows. As I said, it requires custom work that is not standardised and relies on ad-hoc techniques.
"generally speaking, a 180-pound man could consume four beers or glasses of wine in 90 minutes without reaching the current limit. At a limit of 0.05 percent, he could legally consume only three. "
"A 130-pound woman could probably consume three drinks in 90 minutes and be legal under the existing standard; if the limit were lowered, she could consume only two. "
And even that is a downward estimate, without eating anything, etc.
When people say AD they don't mean the LDAP part with centralised user accounts. That's been doable for ages.
When windows admins talk about AD, they are talking about all of the things that you can do with group policy and how those policies apply to different containers in a hierchical or cross cutting way, depending on configuration.
With AD and GPO you can: -choose who has access to which desktops or servers and at what level in a granular or structured way (web admins have admin on web boxes but not mail servers, etc) -choose what machines have what software installed and in what way -set things like storage quotas (mailbox or otherwise) depending on a user's position/job -delegate a login server and storage cache depending on a user's physical location -enable and disable OS features (developers get IIS and debugging, people in finance don't) -configure access to shared mailboxes/other resources
So if Jim moves from finance to web development, you drag and drop is user into another OU and add him to 5-10 groups on the AD server. Next time he logs on his access levels, what software is installed, what mail he has access to, his quotas, etc all change instantly.
This CAN be hacked together with a bunch of scripts, a custom repository, NIS/openLDAP, and some other stuff in Linux, but it's not well documented, well supported, or something you can ask ANY linux admin to do and they will do it in the same way.
I am not saying I feel this way (I don't), but you could easily argue that it's not unequal treatment unless a man who has a baby is refused the 16 weeks of leave, or if a female partner in a gay couple (legally married in a state recognizing gay marriage) was given 16 weeks when her partner (not her) gives birth.
I've adminned hundreds of Linux VMs. I've never once use X remoting to do so.
Serious question: what adminsitration are you doing that requires or is easier with a GUI?
I've never met a linux admin who didn't either use custom configuration packaging through an in-house Configuration Management solution, or if done "by hand" with SSH and either perl or python for 99.9% of their remote administration.
Why cripple a display solution to meet a sub 1% use case?
What apps do you really need to run network transparently? If it's specialised administration apps then those individual apps can be made network transparent if they need to.
If it's about using thin clients then perhaps a properly architected multi-tier application is in order.
Who uses X remoting to administer hundreds of hosts? An ex-windows-admin? Real administration is done over SSH, typically in screen or similar.
And no one uses pure X remoting for anything "real" due to the fact that losing your network connection means the app dies. For remote X useage everyone uses some sort of proxy layer anyways, so the "X does it natively" goes out the window, and it doesn't do it "better" due to the issue I mentioned before.
Did they ever fix the lack of command line for windows 8 servers?
You gave yourself away there as a troll, and not a serious poster. Hopefully the moderators will catch on soon.
Windows Server 2012 (there's no such thing as "windows 8 servers") ships by default with powershell. ALL configuration tasks are doable via the command line and embeddable into scripts, and MANY tasks are doable ONLY via powershell still (especially when it comes to detailed Exchange configuration).
In addition, the "core" level of windows server, which is Microsoft's recommended configuration for all new servers, doesn't even have a functioning GUI and is command line only. You can add back the GUI if you want, but for a typical datacenter server you wouldn't have a reason to, as you'd be managing it remotely via powershell remoting.
Because ubuntu (the supported steam distro) doesn't do a release every 6 months requiring an upgrade proceedure (do-release-upgrade, a simple changing of sources.list and dist-upgrade typically results in broken packages) and yet another change to the window manager?
You can already do this on android and iphone as well with encrypted containers like Good ( http://www.good.com/ ).
The point of virtualising is that it means the OS is COMPLETELY seperate. If you want to upgrade to android 5.3.2 aka "footlong hotdog" (they ran out of dessert names), but your company is still on 4.6.1, you can. If your company image can only send packets via VPN and disallows app installation, you can still do what you want with YOUR image.
Only once, and it was when I fried the mobo (long story short, I ran what I thought was digital audio into the digital audio header for the motherboard... it turned out it was a 5v fan lead.)
This is in 20 years of building PCs.
I'd guess that the cost savings in having the chips integrated would have more than paid for that single motherboard replacement. In addition, I've ruined more than one AMD chip (the old thunderbird athlons) bending pins while plugging it in, which would have me ahead in spend were they 1:1 and soldered.
I agree, I've built PCs for ages and never upgraded a CPU, despite planning to.
The thing I can see this effecting, though, is diversity of price.
Right now you can spend $75-$350 on a motherboard, and $75-1000 on a processor. There are X motherboards, and Y compatible processors, for X * Y price/feature/etc points.
When USB3 came out is when I upgraded, so I got a low-to-mid spec motherboard (only cared about USB3, don't need dual video card capability etc) and then a mid-high spec processor (fastest i5 that wasn't the enthousiast factory unlocked ones).
With this change I won't have that choice. It'll be buy one of two models of this motherboard with processor A and B. OEMs won't make hundreds of combinations, and vendor's wouldn't stock them if they did.
As for your AMD systems: -you CAN upgrade, but you haven't. He wasn't saying that you can't, but that no one winds up doing so. -Why would you do so while still running DDR2? -the top phenom II will run in a degraded mode due to lack of power from an AM2+ motherboard
I've always built my own PCs, and had the intention of upgrading my processor later. I've never done so. Right now I have an i5 ~3ghz system I built 14 month ago. I got the i5 with plans in a year or so to upgrade it to an i7. I haven't done so yet, nor will I likely do so, just as you haven't upgraded your Athlon64 systems.
And I've changed motherboards plenty of times and had windows reactivate, so I'm not sure what you're on about there.

The summary was wrong, as was the first article.
"generally speaking, a 180-pound man could consume four beers or glasses of wine in 90 minutes without reaching the current limit. At a limit of 0.05 percent, he could legally consume only three. "
"A 130-pound woman could probably consume three drinks in 90 minutes and be legal under the existing standard; if the limit were lowered, she could consume only two. "
