From my last post: "You should consider taking the time to read the post and put it context before flying off the handle."
You obviously failed to put "Fuck Telix... use CCGMS," into context. Taking a few seconds to look at the post above it, would have revealed that it was humor, not flying off the handle.
This person does not get pissed. "I don't give people a hard time about it or make a fuss, but there are constant reminders that I am not your average person," hardly sounds like someone full of anger does it?
I might reccomend looking at the evidence and information around you before jumping to conclusions about things. After all, they are simply siting an example in a calm, reasonable manner. Unless you're trolling, you should consider taking the time to read the post and put it context before flying off the handle.
Bring on Leonard Nimoy to do the theme song; or better yet, we could get Wil Wheaton to do a hip modern cover of the ballad of Bilbo Baggins. CleverNickName, are you up to the challenge?
Well, I'm an artist and I want a Tablet PC to use for my digital art work. I don't think though that I can think of a really compelling reason to use Linux on it though.
I was so disapointed that this didn't involve eyepatches, hooks or peglegs. I have a love for such things, and a new genre called "Pirate Anime," would have just what a girl needs.:(
FROM THE DESK OF:MR.UMAR MOHAMMED REPLY TO : umohammed@postmaster.co.uk
Good day,
I am MR UMAR MOHAMMED, head of the accounts/operations dept. of one of the leading merchant banks in Nigeria..I have an urgent and very confidential business proposition for you.
On December 8, 1998, an American Oil consultant/contractor with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Mrs.Ann Barbara Myers made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00(Twenty-five Million Dollars) in my branch.Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to her forwarding address but got no reply.After a month,we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from her contract employers, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation that Mrs.Ann Barbara Myers died from a ghastly automobile accident.On further investigation,I found out that she died without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin was fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mrs.Ann Barbara Myers did not declare any next of kin or relations in all her official documents, including her Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year.No one will ever come forward to claim it.According to Nigerian Law, at the expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to claim this fund.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foriegner to stand in as the next of kin to Mrs.Ann Barbara Myers so that the fruits of this woman's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials.This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and address so that the Attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits which will put you in place as the next of kin. We shall employ the services of two Attorneys for drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor for the transfer.
We would need you as a Foreigner acting as the next of kin and sole benefactor to the inheritance of Mrs.Ann Barbara Myers to travel and claim this money in a SECURITY COMPANY based in Europe which is used by my bank as an offshore payment center to the bank.The money will be paid to you for us to share in the ratio of 60% for me and 40% for you. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the Attorney and my position as the head of the accounts/operations dept guarantees the successful execution of this transaction.
If you are interested, please reply immediately via the private email address below. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country.
Awaiting your urgent reply via my email:umohammed@postmaster.co.uk Thanks and regards.
When I was consulting, I would never flat out say no, after all the client IS paying me money and should be in control over their decisions.
However, if something seems overly expensive, resource intensive, or whatever you should say something, but not just no. I would come up with several solutions and presen them to the client. Nine times out of ten, the client would come to the correct decision on their own. Of course, I'd ask for more information from the client as well, because there may be factors I haven't though of.
I've also found that clients will trust you once you've proven you have their best interests in mind.
If all else fails, he'll be able to get on the launch wit h the personnel officers, public relations executives, management consultants, and telephone sanitizers.
Apparently, the device doesn't recognize diagonals on the game pad. This makes it almost completely useless as a gaming device.
This issue seems even more annoying than the button problems on the iPaq, but hopefully Toshiba can fix with a software patch, or at least in future hardware revisions

Brent Spiner's albums have been out for quite a while and actually aren't half bad.

The issue isn't C.S. Lewis' religion but the religious content of his work.

You need to read the article. This statement is taken out of context here.
Fuck Telix... use CCGMS
Well, I'm an artist and I want a Tablet PC to use for my digital art work. I don't think though that I can think of a really compelling reason to use Linux on it though.

Here's four of the reasons I own it.
1. To analyze your own games more quickly with the engine, which is great for having new insight to your own games and evolution as a player.
2. Faster thinking times. A stronger engine is, well, faster... especially with SMP.
3. To play chess - Deep Fritz plays at a variety of levels. most of which are far easier than what Kramnik is playing.
4. Integration with a program called Chessbase, which is as you may have guessed, Database application for chess games.
Hope this helps!

I read his comments as well, they can be found here .
Win2k server have something called "Terminal Services," which are fairly similar to the product Citrix offers. It's even multi-user.
I've read about the site on Company Hell. Fascinating.

Besides using macs, which IMHO is totally cool, The Maine Learning Technology Endowement itself is actually quite a progressive idea.
Can't wait to get mine, maybe if i'm lucky it will even be tied to MS passport. :)
