Please go back I beg you... Especially if we're sharing the same provider with cable modems. That's the problem with the cable modems, it's a shared line. So you'll notice different times of the day will be faster than others. Cable modems have peak times, which is equivelant to the old AOL busy signal. (Yuk) DSL on the other hand, you have good ole MA Bell switching bridges on you that will no longer work with you Alcatel modem. The world sucks, oh well at least Castle Wolfenstein is free (Well one map anyways).
To take this up a higher level. Artists make around 2 cents a CD. Not a whole lot. Artists on the other hand make a significant more on concert ticket sales. Why? Cause Concerts are not paying Hilary Rosen's salary.
In case you don't know what November 15 is, people of socal watch out... That's the day that the BSA comes into town.
In case you don't know what software audit means, you might wanna check if your version of photoshop, or *gasp* Windows has its own license, cause if it doesn't... Your company might be laying down a pretty penny for all those. So tell them, "Well I don't think a Linux Workstation needs a license." And then your safe, well until the SSSCA passes anyways...
I went back up to visit the old college Stomping Grounds. College is a great place to drink cheap beer, and tell all the youngins that if they are complaining about B* trees now that wait till they get to the real world... It only gets worse now with no Dot-com's, no stock options, and now babes that come in the ferrari that you will never get promised.
I did CS for the chicks... (fatal mistake, shoulda went pre-med or pre-law)
Everything has a space in it (space is generally reserved as a delimiter character on the command line!) and you end up having to put quotes around practically ever CD command.
uhhh no you don't... instead of running command.exe which is the 16 bit version of DOS run cmd.exe which is the 32 bit version. Now the problem is some of your old DOS programs might run a little wacky in the 32 bit. Like old clipper apps and stuff like that. Wait a minute how will those clipper apps run now without a command line??????
The sad thing is that it's easy to see Startup cost difference. But once that money is invested in a M$ solution, you can't exactly get a refund for switching to a Solaris solution.
However he does mention in a little box with little text...
"It is difficult to move a data center from a mixed or proprietary environment to Unix. That process is the subject of my book The Unix Guide to Defenestration and requires far more than technical change. The challenge is to change minds not just technology."
That's everything from secretaries and higher ups yelling "where's my Word, where's my Outlook and Contacts?" The people that usually don't get phased by this kind of change is developers, coders, or people that run only certain applications that would have to get ported.
He also mentions another good point...
"Using Unix enables but does not ensure success. "
In a world of FPS online communities where people playing those FPS worry about FPS than I don't think that writing drivers optimized for FPS to maximise FPS is such a bad thing... IHA
FPS = First Person Shooter
or is it...
FPS = Frames Per Seconds
Hopefully this is what Sony is trying to pursue. The wires behind my home entertainment center makes the back of my computer desk look neat. I would rather buy a new TV with TiVo included rather than buy another box that sits atop another box which sit atop another... etc..
I remember every Christmas when younger, I could tell which were gameboy games, NES games, then came SuperNES or Genesis packages under the Xmas tree. I knew the exact weight, size and shape of each console game package. Wow, I think this honkin thing might make me think my parents got me a baseball bat or soemthing.
It sure would throw me off, if this monster comes bundled with PSO that is...

the Java COM developers. So we picked up and said well hey maybe this isn't such a bad thing, let's go find our roots and discover what this J2EE platform is all about. Besides M$ has given us a boloated crappy VM anyway. Hey who needs this XP thing anyway?
Now that they see most of us, developers have picked up and left this is M$ brainchild to suck us back.
Tsk, Tsk Bill, You've got spunk... Sadly though, unlike other companies Microsoft can easily pay for the mistaken direction that they've taken.
Well you can't eavesdrop if you have no way of listening in to the wire. As costly as it may be, the most secure method is in the words of the Offspring, 'You Got to Keep them Seperated', Lay a seperate GOVNET pipe to all installations. The only way to access is to get in the installation.
No Modems, No Firewalls, No Connections to the Internet... Definitely all nude... I mean all 'GOVNET'
Will it be considered an Intranet. Is it going to have dedicated lines and bridges to each part of this WAN?
So if this is in no way part of the Internet, the only true way to keep it safe from Hacks is to have dedicated lines to each 'GOVNET' LAN and have absolutely no connections to outside of this 'GOVNET' right?
Sounds costly. Having to lay pipe to keep everything seperate. I say allow and build better encryption schemes, (but those are terroist tools right).
I guess you missed my point. I wasn't talking about BSD.
The difference is that when a new Linux/BSD kernel is released, it's an improved kernel, better hardware support, additional file system support, etc. Often times when a new Windows is released, one gets an upgraded IE, media player, or the way my startup menu 'pops-up' is changed. The best change thus far for Windows within a release that I didn't have to pay for was Win95 to Win95B which added FAT32, USB support amongst other things. Win98 to Win95B was a $79 cosmetic upgrade.
'I don't actually follow other operating systems much. I don't compete - I just worry about making Linux better than itself, not others. And quite frankly, I don't see anythign very interesting on a technical level in either. '
It's great when you have developers, that are not looking to outdo the competition or sales, rather just build a product/project. I guess that's one advantage of building free software. Making it better to well make it better, not to upgrade to sell more copies. (Of course this doesn't apply to BSD)
Oh it's okay for the government to read your email. But it's not okay to read someone else's. It's okay for the government to browse your file and directories, but not for you to read anyone else's. Invasion of privacy is not wrong! Well only if you work for the government. (That's what they tell me)
Don't get me wrong I think this is a good way for individuals, who aren't as capable physical fighters on the battlefield to join the good fight, by providing military intelligence / espionage via whatever medium. But what happens after the government is done using these persons in this computer counter terroist taskforce. One of two things, either we have elite computer hackers still invading the privacy of Citizen Joe User checking for suspicious emails in the future, or these patriots are sent back to the grazing fields of cyberspace, and Hacker becomes a bad word again.

The problem is I'm addicted. I could never go back to analog modems. I am truly addicted to the drug HSI.
High Speed Internet!

Before I get modded down, I use Linux at home.

I like Linus's philosophy about BSD and XP,

How does that stand against the First Amendment? A license agreement that loudly that prohibits free speech? Our government would never allow that...
Oh wait the DMCA and possibly coming soon to a computer near you... the 3SCA!
