  18. Re:It'll cost you. on Computers That Thrive in Salty, Humid Environments? · · Score: 2

    For instance "marine coolers"... I mean, they're exactly the same thing, but cost a LOT more.

  21. Re:Insurance? on Coders Working Without the Use of Their Hands? · · Score: 2

    I understand. The ~$70 is for what we call "disability". Keeps you fed and housed when unable to work due to illness, injury, etc. The ~$415 is for health, non-catastrophic, no treatments that are newer than 6 months or so, on and on. Yahoo.

  22. Re:Insurance? on Coders Working Without the Use of Their Hands? · · Score: 2

    It's looks expensive at ~USD70/month, but it's all tax deductable(sp?), so it boils down to ~USD30/month, which is not all that much actually.

    "Deductible" ;)

    US $70 per month isn't that bad if it's going to keep you afloat through a major disablity. With tax deductions to bring it down even further, damn. Hell, my regular health insurance is ~US $415 per month for me, my wife and daughter.

    MS Project Web Access is not browser-based, though. It is Windows-based, requiring Win98, Win98SE, WinMe, NT4SP6, Win2000 or WinXP as well as Internet Explorer 5.01 or later.

  25. Re:MS Project lacks good task distribution too... on Effective Project Management Software? · · Score: 2

    MS Project Server: $720
    MS Project Server CAL: $127

    It appears that Project Central in Project 2000 has been replaced with Project Server 2002 as a separate, chargeable product. In version 2000, the web collaboration server was included in the "Pro" flavor, with CALs required to connect. Nows requires SQL 2000 for Enterprise resource managment. It seems MSDE no longer cuts it. Hmmmm.
