Had a power supply go out in a DELL server. Lucky: it was hot swap and redundant. Not so lucky: the flames came out and the supply popped the breakers on the UPS. So I called DELL to exercise our Gold support.
Stated clearly that the PS catches on fire if plugged in, and wipes out the entire cabinet when the UPS pops. Stated that they were to replace it plugging the faulty supply in. (2 hour drive for me, let DELL do it. Bad idea.)
With these instructions in hand, anybody want to guess what the first thing the DELL monkey did when he arrived?
Look at the caption on the second and the last pictures.
Second Picure: "Walmart, West Boylston, MA"
Last Picture: "Contact Downhill Battle" (Doesn't really look like a caption, but it's the closest thing that picture has.)
I suspect to a larger degree, not hijacking the message of the good Reverend is far more important to them. At some point, I should think the integrity of its use far outweighs the simple financial values.
Ever notice how MS documents are recognized as such by the OS even if YOU'VE NEVER LOADED OFFICE on that computer??!
I've noticed how they are recognized as WordPad documents, if I have never loaded Word but have WordPad installed. (IIRC, WordPad is installed by default on NT based Windows.)
Does France have oil? Maybe a high-level French official crossed his eyes at Cheney sometime in the past. Maybe it's France's fault that there was no ammo dump or supplies of winter gear at Mourmelon in December of '44.
So, he puts down the eMate he is demoing, jumps into a time machine, travels to 2002, and returns to 1997 with an eMac to throw down the aisle? Amazing!

Cool! I've got IMPS in my X config. Who knew that was how Microsoft hardware worked?
The works of Shakespear: 1000 monkies, 1000 typewriters, 1000 years.
Microsoft Systems Management Server: 1000 pacxet monkies, 1000 copies Visual C++, 100,000,000 boxes of chocolate Ex-Lax.
Day ain't over yet.

What's the big deal?
Slashdotters getting laid? Scary.
Sony?
No, that just means that Linux is still here.
It's also been slashdotted.
What is this 'dotslash' of which you speak?
Yeah, but...
When installing Windows 95, Microsoft pops up the bold statement that "Everything You Do Will Be Faster and More Fun."
It's been 9 years and they STILL haven't delivered.

Surely, that would give Dubya cause.
Let's look at a picture book: "The Big Book of British Smiles".
I'm sure I've seen this before.
What's Slashdot like with no articles, comments or polls?
Easy-peasy. Just do a mandatory stylesheet that makes Slashdot unbearable to read.
You should check out the Literary Moose page on CSS. See if IE can render his CSS styled pages.
Or a scholarship.
Just wait for Star Trek XVII! Kirk and Spock spend the first 50 minutes of the movie zapping killer mosquitoes with phaser rifles.
IBM has one of these too. http://stores.ebay.com/IBM-Authorized-Auctions
