If the installer or other tools require X11, that's fine. It doesn't require you to run X11 on the actual server that's going to run Oracle. At least I can't imagine it does. Wherever you're doing the install, you can send those X11 windows off to your desktop via the X11 network transport.
Your oracle server wouldn't need to have an X11 server installed.
I'll email you later if I don't hear from you, but the Cracker album is called "Greatest Hits Redux" and it's available on Amazon. Cracker's webpage links to "pitchatent.com" for orders.
The Virgin album is called "Get on With It: The Best of Cracker" and the Amazon page is flooded with one star reviews.
There's also "Garage d'Or" which is a two CD retrospective.
I don't have any opinion on any of this music, since I only ever heard Low, which was great.
Cracker, a not too terrible band famous for a song called "Low", recently did this. Their old contract allowed Virgin Records to create a Best Of album and not give any royalties to the band.
They had rights to the songs, but not the recordings. So they re-recorded all of the songs on the Best Of album as exactly as possible, threw in a bonus track about their experiences with their label ("Ain't Gonna Suck Itself"), and sold it for less than the Virgin "Best Of" album. Due to their small but devoted and informed fan base, I think it was a rather profitable venture for them.
But Cracker is a tiny little band. The real big players (the top 36 most profitable musical ventures are the only ones that make more money on albums than concerts) don't need to do this. Record labels are happy to provide them a fair service at a fair price. Because everyone is getting rich. It's the middle tier that can barely support themselves with music that might do better with a bank loan than a music label.
There is the theory of the moebius. A twist in the fabric of space where time becomes a loop. Where time becomes a loop. Where time becomes a loop. Where time becomes a loop. hWre eitemb cemosea olpo.
The scroll wheel. It seems lame, but it's dead simple to navigate around the device with just your thumb.
Small, efficient keyboard. Writing email was simple. A lot easier than T9.
And as the GP rightly pointed out, both of these features are easily duplicated, unless patents get in the way. Which brings us right back to his original point.:)
Not really. The scroll wheel and UI implementation was notably stellar. Throwing a thumb wheel on your blackberry knockoff and making it do similar things to your email would really not suffice. The UI responsiveness on those old Blackberries is better than most desktop computers I've used, and the thumbwheel felt perfect. It would take a lot of work to make your knockoff really compete.
That might have gone down the tubes with the color versions, but I thought it was notable a-way back when.
I don't think we're going to get any closer to an understanding here. It's clear what O'Grady did. I think it was A-OK, and Apple should take it out on someone they NDAed. I think O'Grady has plausible deniability w.r.t. knowing that he shouldn't know about Asteroid. I don't think it's cool for Apple employees to go around unsolicited saying "this is a secret, don't tell anyone" and have the government give that actual legal force.
A year from now? Unless you're trying to say that Jobs is going to die immediately... no, that still doesn't make any sense.
You might have a good point, but that level of hyperbole makes it hard to follow. Maybe you're talking about like... five or ten or twenty years from now, in which case I have no idea where you're coming up with your speculation, but whatever.

Put machines that might have wifi on the far end of a DMZ. Wifi isn't magical. There's no hacking with wifi that you couldn't do with an ethernet cable.
If you won't be comfortable with the other guy calling the shots, then don't let him call the shots. How the hell should we know if this guy will be better at directing the company than you? Either one of you could be pushy idiots and we'd have no way of knowing.
Don't put an idiot in charge of your company, if that's what you're asking.
My dad is religious about his Tumi laptop case. It's not particularly cool, and it's a bit overpriced, but boy is it extremely functional. Every zipper feels right, it's very durable, and it isn't too bulky. What converted me was how nicely the handles have worn.

woah
Mod parent up.
That is true and yet I am not an Orbital devotee.
But it tells you more about the actual time than the broken clock, which was obviously the guy's point.
This is neither brain surgery nor rocket science.
Neither! That "song" is crap!
:)
Cheers anyway
I would say that your comment is more like a clock that is slow than a clock that is broken.

Other way around. The VNC server installed on the ARD "client" doesn't allow you to easily connect with a PC running VNC.
Using ARD as a VNC server was "challenging" enough that everyone just installed the open source osxvnc instead.
Improvements were in order.
I wasn't trying to use legal terminology. I'm just saying I somewhat believe him.

So we disagree. Whatever.
I would sue the pants off my doctor.
Or my lawyer.
Not their wives.
But it isn't a trade secret once your employee tells it to a reporter. Right?
Except that Cooter isn't repeating "turn left now" in soothing tones via the hifi.
