  1. Re:Pointless? I think not on Academe: Technology For Sale · · Score: 1

    TRUE -- RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT DRIVES INNOVATION & NEW STANDARDS IN EXISTING TECHNOLOGY

    However, I still believe that the "American Dream" is alive in technical support areas in smaller towns. Primary emphasis = To discover alternative approaches to solutions/issues without pressures to produce a "profit" (Experiment with various Operating Systems, Programming Languages, Network Infrastructure or Platforms) --
    I've always immensely enjoyed uncovering any aspect of computer science & will NOT tolerate any of "Corporate America" exploits on Academics/Universities

  2. Re:Is there really aproblem with the previous meth on Interview With Mike Sklut · · Score: 1

    Isn't your situation unusual compared to the majority of children? I think some degree of monitored/restriced access becomes necessary as complexity of the Internet/Computer Systems increases. Computer Science specialists in UNIX & VMS require time to allow the talent to develop.

  3. APPLE'S INNOVATION on New Mice from Apple - Without Buttons? · · Score: 1

    It seems that APPLE is responding to the new trend towards wireless/touchscreen technology -- ANOTHER REASON NOT TO USE MACINTOSH -- NOT GOOD FOR TECHNICAL SUPPORT

  4. Re:The answer to this --- EAST TEXAS! on The High Cost of Valley Living · · Score: 1

    What is your justification -- SMALLER TOWNS lead to INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENTS ??

  5. Re:Just another reason not to use Hotmail on Another Hole in Hotmail · · Score: 1

    How many users know to turn off JAVASCRIPT before viewing an attachment -- If you need a secure email account, try LINUX or other TEXT-BASED programs

  6. NEW STANDARD on IPv6 Over OpenBSD · · Score: 1

    IPV6 ALLOWS MORE SECURITY & STABILITY TO EXISTING INTERNET SERVERS -- I HAVE YET BEEN ABLE TO FIND ADEQUATE TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION TO IMPLEMENT THIS PROTOCOL OVER A WIDE VARIETY OF SYSTEMS (UNIX/VMS/BSD)

  7. "ILOVEYOU" VIRUS on Intel FDIV bug vs ILUVYOU · · Score: 1

    BENEFIT OF USING VMS/UNIX -- NO VIRUSES FROM MICROSOFT

  8. NAPSTER on RIAA Claims Initial Legal Win vs. Napster · · Score: 1

    I AGREE WITH THE COURT'S DECISION -- TECHNOLOGY (NAPSTER, WRAPSTER, GNUTELLA) ISN'T THE FOCUS-- THE CONCEPT OF "STEALING" MUSIC FROM DEVELOPERS AND MAKING IT AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC FREE OF CHARGE IS UNETHICAL -- MAYBE THE RECORD & CD COMPANIES SHOULD SET-UP A DATABASE TO TRACK ALL USERS OF THESE PRODUCTS TO COMPENSATE FOR THE LOSS OF INCOME --

  9. MICROSOFT CODE on Windows Source Code Proposal Confirmed · · Score: 1

    ONLY ALLOWING SPECIFIC SECTIONS OF THEIR OPERATING SYSTEM TO BE "OPEN" ALLOW THEM TO COMPETE IN THE OPEN SOURCE COMPETITION & STALL UNTIL NEW OPERATING ABLE TO COMPETE WITH LINUX IN STABLILITY AND SECURITY -- MICROSOFT ALLOWS SOME CUSTOMIZATION WITH VBSCRIPT AND MACROS --

  10. Re: Open Source on Smuggling Open Source Past The Boss · · Score: 1

    OPEN SOURCE CODE IMPROVES SECURITY AND FLEXIBILITY -- THE TECHINICIANS/SUPPORT STAFF SHOULD PRESENT A COMPELLING REASON TO MGMT, EVEN THOUGH MGMT MIGHT NOT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OPEN SOURCE VS. MICROSOFT -- NETSCAPE SHOULD BE REPLACED WITH LINUX FOR IMPROVED SECURITY & STABILITY -- IT WOULD BE UNETHICAL TO KEEP ON USING NETSCAPE & MICROSOFT, NOT INFORMING MGMT OF ESSENTIAL ALTERNATIVES --

  11. Re:Still on his county's 'most wanted' list though on Phillip W. Katz, Creator Of PKZIP, Dead At 37 · · Score: 1

    PHILIP W. KATZ SHOULD BE HONORED -- PKZIP IS STILL ONE OF THE BEST COMPRESSION PROGRAMS FOR DOS -- I STILL USE PKIP & PKUNZIP ON A 386 MACHINE UNDER DOS 6.0 -- BETTER THAN ANY COMPRESSION PROGRAM FOR WINDOWS

  12. AWESOME IDEA on Konqueror.org Launched - KDE2 Web Browser · · Score: 1

    IS THIS NEW KDE BROWSER, SIMILAR TO LYNX (TEXT-ONLY) OR HTML-BASED? WHEN THIS BROWSER IS RELEASED, WILL NETSCAPE AND INTERNET EXPLORER CEASE TO EXIST -- I PREFER TEXT-ONLY BROWSERS

  13. OPEN SOURCE on Why Do Open Source? · · Score: 1

    ALLOWS FOR TROUBLESHOOTING & CUSTOMIZATION OF SYSTEM -- AWESOME IDEA
