Once had a Cisco 4500 With 1 Ethernet 1 Token Ring and 1 HSSI card running even though the entire bottom of the case had rusted and a hole about 5 inches in diameter had fallen out. The router had never (obviously) been put in the rack and had sat in some water from when the AC Unit (big ass Leibert) had gone out about 18 months before hand. We were able to keep the thing going about 5 more months before we upgraded and killed the Token Ring segment. The damn thing would still be running if we hadn't gone to 100Mb...
I need Visio, granted Kivio is a decent app as will as Dia but until I can get a app the reads and writes Visio files I'll never complete my OS X migration. Granted I can run Virtual PC but the hassle's of getting files into the Virtual PC "Hard Drive" and also the horrid performance of VPC its not fun. I have started using the RDC client from OS X and that has solved some of the issue's I get better performance since the machine I run Visio from is a Dual Proc server but I still have the issue of getting the files out of email and onto the server just to check and updated diagram. Of course if the damn Visio files would export nicely into jpg, gif or PDF I would be happier also.
It won't go away anytime soon. I "earned" the moniker "The Kid" one place I worked. I was 22 and just out of the US Army. Everyone else was at least 35. I could run circles around them on the kick ass Novell 3.12 servers we had, and I was the only person to have tried that new NT thing... I eventually left about 6 months later for a different position doing Server admin. Still had the age issue. Age and treachery always looses to youth and skill... Sad but True...
MPLS was great before we had ASIC's that were doing full next hop lookups at OC-48 and OC-192 speeds... Now with routers actually forwarding at those line rates, the need for MPLS has dwindled... But... I believe that the ability to provide the amount of traffic engineering and VPN's afforded with MPLS is a viable solution that is here to stay for a good while. Back when I was working on a 38 POP network with multiple private peering points MPLS was going to provide a lot of the benefits of ATM on our POS network with out the fscking cell tax... These days things are a little different in the office, but I still am waiting for a good excuse to fire the MPLS up on the damn M-40's and have a good time...
That's interesting. I guess then you charge all the grocery stores in your area to deliver the weekly ad's to your house. What about that catalog of garden supplies you got last week. Ohh how about we charge the power company to deliver my bill...
I though that this was normal. Many shops in my area us "Contract" staff that stay around for ever, even the ones you want fired. This could have interesting effects...

worst part of all, I saw this after Joe Rogan sent a tweet on it today... That was before slashdot got it... shit the world is ending...

Missing Sync will make your Clie, Palm or Pocket PC sync with your mac... Works and is cheap...

My dick is so big, Trump owns it.
I can't believe that some one posted this dribble... This guy must be a damn alien or some such shit
