I strongly advise you to not do business with Gigabytes Technologies.
Dealing with them on a bad motherboard (brand new) proved to take me nearly 3 months. Meanwhile _none_ of my emails or phone calls were _ever_ returned. They only took progressive action when I called them and waited to be spoken with. The support person even hung up on me once when the conversation became heated over the long wait time. They refused to send me a replacement/loaner motherboard and had no other alternatives for me but to sit and wait for the one I mailed to them via RMA to be repaired. Oh, and to even get the RMA I had to fax three different forms back to them and wait for approval, the process to get an RMA took about 4 days. Usually I can get an RMA over the phone, not with Gigabytes you won't.
The board still does not work 100%, it only boots off whatever is plugged into the primary ide controller, even though the bios has many other options.
This is a true story I swear.
And Gigabytes, if you're reading this, I told you I would spread the word, and I am..
I took home 3 PS2s before getting one that worked. And even it is so ultra-sensitive to tiny amounts of household dust that I have to clean it 3 or 4 times a year for it to work.
I remember the old days with my Atari 2600. That thing took a beating and never stopped working.
I have never had anyone refuse to do business with me because I wouldn't give them my phone number.
Radio-Shack refused to take back a defective rj45 coupler from me one day because I refused to give them my phone number. I had my reciept, original packing, and all. At $8 each (only place open the night before at 8:00pm) I wasn't about to just let it slide. I forced the issue, and made the cashier phone his manager. He was instructed to comply with my desire to not give my phone number. I got my refund, in cash, and walked out of there very happy that day.
It empowers federal authorities to prosecute counterfeiting activity on a greater scale with better results Very poor choice of wording IMO. How can a byte per byte copy of a given instance of digital media be in any way distiguishable from the original file? I don't think it can. In fact that's why we use md5sums to assue a downloaded file is intact. Just seems odd to hear about software piracy and copyright infringement being referred to a "counterfeiting activity". This isn't paper money we're talking about here.
go to an event with the person and scream so much they don't even hear the music I'm kind of off-topic here, but I hear ya.. I seem to always have a seat near some drunk guy who just won't shut up. Last time this happened to me it was at Ozzfest. Some die-hard Judas Priest fan was screaming the whole time. He screamed "Ju - das - Prieeeeeeest" for like 8 hours before they ever hit the stage. Then when they did hit the stage he was totally silent. How annoying.
Expecting our country's leaders to lead, WTF was I thinking? Jesus.. your the dumbest fuck I ever met.
Being grown up, unlike you, is the very reason why I have these job related concerns. Feeding a family takes money, something I won't have too much of if my job doesn't exist.
Take your anti-political views and stick them up your uneducated ass.
So much for all those postgres zealots screaming about how it handles load sooooo well..

I've always wondered at what point it will become 'old shcool' to teach basic writing skills in elementary school.. keyboard input will eventually win out I would think.
In this game you are in the "afterlife" business catering to all the religions of all people, on the whole earth. There is no "God" in the game, but you cater to the recently dead who think there is, in effect being whatever "God" it is that they do believe in.. or not.
Those who believe in reincarnation are a pain to deal with. You never make a dime off them, but you have to keep sending them back to Earth, which is of course not free.

You know J2EE is on its way out when you have experts in the field writing MVC frameworks in PHP like Mojavi.
Both the 1.0 and the 1.0PR crash on me, using them on Debian, Gentoo, and Windows XP.
I can't really say the newest release is worse than the older release, seems about the same to me. About 3 or 4 crashes in an 8 hour workday.
Yeah, fully disassembled cleanings are quite horrible.

The review (that you didn't read) clearly states that since Gnome 2.8 was only released in September that it was not included due to time constraints.
Dell isn't just a Red Hat shop
I didn't know Dell was a Red Hat shop.. What exactly entitles one to a specific 'shop' status anyway?
I'm quite sure they sell more copies of Windows than Linux.
I'll be needing a bit more than 1GB of storage at that point. Some of my favorite games are 2GBs+ for the just the basic install.
It'll be neato and cool and all that, but it will be a while before we get to that point.

Why is your job security the responsibility of the President?
Because it is.
Interesting, I wasn't aware we were talking about the past.
What are your plans to make sure I still have a technical related job in the future?
Cisco routers are not open source and make up more of the internet than any other component group.
Yeah, Google has the don't be evil thing going on so they would never do something like that..
What exactly is "some architectural limitations" ? The article is very vague.
Sounds more like marketing than anything else.

They man-handled the box so roughly that components came loose from their sockets on the motherboard.
And we never got a dime on the claim we filed for damages.
You mean it's not 42 ? Oh wait..
