In the 21st century land of the mega-corps, it's all about a [non-accountable] executive climbing one more rung up the bloody corporate ladder, to grab another 10% of stock options.
This does not breed quality.
A small owner/operator knows he cannot screw over his customers and stay in business.
As far as lappys go.. who buys most of them? Oh, thats the [non-accountable] executive climbing one more rung up the bloody corporate ladder; and whose manufacturing most of them? why it's the [non-accountable] executive climbing one more rung up the bloody corporate ladder.
And the higher-end retail outlet [read higher priced] you get it from, the easier it is to get satisfaction.
I have friends(?) who get all their stuff from high end retail...then, when they are tired of the item, they just return it. I've seen them do this with..
1) stained couches ["It's not very comfortable"]
2) baby stroller/pram with 2.5 years of kid goo stuck on it.["The wheels are wobbley"]
3) Dining room set, 2 years old["I'm just not happy with it"]
I could go on and on, but I think my boss is watching...
In fact, I've seen him return stuff he never even got from the store! They've done this from DC to California; Maine to Florida...
And it's not like they need the money either, well into 7 fig net worth...
So, next time, get a laptop from Saks Fifth Avenue...then after about 11 months start practicing phrases like "It just doesn't go with my decore..."
you could have a little innocent fun with this...suggested items for purse/briefcase
1) sex toys
2) dozens of loose ping-pong balls
3) dirty laundry
4) barbie dolls
5) Ken Dolls, dressed in Barbie's cloths
6) one big peice of cheese
7) more sex toys
8) condoms, hundreds of them
9) *dirty* comics
10) dozens of those stupid "moo like a cow" toys
11) tooth paste, sans tooth paste tube
I read some American's comments about traveling (especially by plane) in Israel. The police ask questions and watch responses, sometimes checking responses [ie, where do you work, then calling your employer and confirming/description, etc]
It seems the security the original poster is talking about is the dumb "search everyone/everywhere, but don't think to much" type of security. Seems a smart operative could bypass this [mailing things in/out of building for example].
I gotta ask, what happened [please be general we don't want you getting in trouble.
I work near RTP, NC; in the late 80's they had more than one employee come to work with guns and kill many people [two (former?) employees, on two seperate ocassions] besides the current anthrax type scare, what could be worse? [I'm wondering] a bomb in a breifcase maybe?

here at our org already ... let me tell you, you will need A LOT OF STORAGE SPACE to save this stuff off
web traffic alone we see about 500G a day, just from 250k workstations surfing and such.
I think we're looking at 50-500TB per day, but prolly more. time to buy some hard drive stocks.

they could probably pay for a satelite link and have a bit left over...
and why is it our job to help afganistan?
in 1995 where were the Afganistan neighbors? like Saudia Arabia, UAE, etc....
If Afgan's own brothers didn't / wouldn't help... well, why expect a country half-way around the world to....
then string some innocent looking, dusty speaker wire in the ceiling, and use that ... the robbers will concentrate on the secure fiber.
Like having a $50,000 safe in you house, then burrying the Krugernads in the backyard; the theievs waste time on the (empty) safe.

it's a service interval indicator
since most (every other) service is basically an oil change, some may call it an oil light...
A artfull blending of MST3K, hot grits, a certain young actress, and space trip to the Beowulf Cluster.
It would all be very hush-hush of course...
