Yes it does but she no longer has a Palm device (she switched to the iPhone about a year or two ago) and was stuck on version 4 of the software. She was just using Palm desktop at that point to look up old contacts and notes she had made just I just used the move as an opportunity to just put everything in the same place in Outlook.
Moved to Windows 8 on all of my machines (Home, Work and Laptop) as well as moved both of my parents over from XP to 8.
Really like it so far. It does appear to be a lot faster on my machines. I don't really use metro on my desktop machines, but I use it almost exclusively on my laptop as I mostly just use my laptop for web browsing any way.
My dad really likes 8, my mom doesn't care either way, I'm just glad to get her off of Windows XP and use that as an excuse to get her out of Outlook Express and Palm Desktop for managing her contacts and mail to Outlook so I won't have to deal with any more end of life products.
Newsflash: Students usually cheat because they DON'T have a strong grasp of the task.
Not necessarily. There are many reasons that people cheat: 1) They are lazy 2) They "don't have the time" 3) They think they're getting away with something
In these cases they use "I don't know how to do it" as the excuse to just cheat, rather than expend the effort required to ask for clarification or practice further until they do grasp the task/concept that they are performing.
For some reason in college (at least my college), people cheating is totally normal and students talk about it like it's no big deal. To me, there is no purpose going to college if you're not going to do any of the work that would teach you something.
That's why it passed with such a high percentage of Yes votes. The part about sex offenders' Internet activity was a single sentence buried in the middle of the voter pamphlet's summary description, so probably was glazed over by most voters.
This.
I was all set to vote for this one until I read that sentence, I would not be surprised if most people just went into the voting booth and were like "Increase penalties for human traffickers, sure, why not" as opposed to actually read what they were voting for.
Except that they are retiring "real" cloud storage like iDisk and only allowing documents... going in the exact opposite direction of Google which moved from only allowing Google Office documents to allowing real cloud storage of all types of files.
It's a weird direction they are going... by getting rid of iDisk they are doing the exact opposite of Google, dropbox, and everyone else.
I think their overall strategy is to move away from the filesystem model since the iPad doesn't expose it to you at all for simplicity, etc. Retiring a service like this makes sense if you keep that in mind.
Doesn't make me want to use it, but that's not the only reason:P
Isn't another use of the source code to change they way the applications functions in small ways to suit your needs? If you're not even able to compile the source as given instructions they provide then the only thing the source is useful for at that point is summer reading.
If you _need_ shared contacts like you mentioned in the OP then I would steer away from Google Apps as it has no support for that (as I found out after I switched a business over to it:/), other than that Google Apps is pretty decent.
May be worth a try checking out Office 365 as well, you can get just hosted exchange (under the E1 mail only plan I believe) for $5/user/month with 25GB of storage and all of the regular exchange features.
I highly doubt they would start running sessions of *nix OSes.
May I suggest getting a cheap colo and set it up for remote access? It'll probably be around the same amount a month and you'll have much more control.
Those MMS text-messages are most likely to be the Group MMS messages that originate from iPhones when you do a group text. To the best of my knowledge, only iPhones support those; they do not even work on Android devices unless you have an app to handle them (very surprisingly, no good ones exist).
You joke... but I did get stabbed with a pencil on the playground. I had a "graphite" tattoo where the lead entered me- faded over a few years- but it remained for a while.
Hah, I still have a piece of graphite in my finger from childhood. I think it was accidentally self inflicted though:P
It's not about altruism, it's about longer term incentives. If Bitcoin fails to work properly because people hoard transactions then the worth of your own Bitcoin using business and stored value goes down.
Wouldn't the value of your bitcoins go up/stay stable as the supply of bitcoins would decrease (even slightly) by you being a jerk?
Sounds like you sold out to Apple and have stopped caring about what happens in the rest of the world, or you are desperate to justify all the money you have shelled out.
What? He doesn't even own an iPad...
Sure, the iPad still kills anything else for software, but if you want a tablet for actual tablet uses of games and movies and reading and browsing, the Galaxy Tab is great.
How many people do you know who bought the iPad for the software?
As far as I recall web browsers, movie players and games are all software. The ease of use and the smoothness of how Apple handles all of these functions are what people buy the iPad for. It's the same reason a lot of people buy the iPhone.
As for the rest of your comment, I have no idea. The poster that you replied to was talking about how the iPad is the same price as other tablet competitors but has much better software it would therefore be the cheaper option. Not sure how this lead into $2k Apple laptops as you admit yourself that a tablet != a laptop.
Slashdot Mirror
Really? How many articles are we going to have about Windows 8 and how much hates it.
Surely it must be getting old to even the die-hard anti-windows fan...
Server: SMTP, IMAP, CalDav, LDAP
Client: Evolution
Looks like Exchange and Outlook to me...
Except the setup on the client side for exchange is: "Type in your email address and password" and the rest is configured automatically.

Every Windows box ships with a key on the side of it that you can use with an OEM Windows disk to put a fresh install on...
p>But then, I'm biased and pro-F/OSS...
And here I thought that your 's' key had broken and you were forced to use the dollar sign instead...

I just stick with my late 90s/early 00's vintage LaserJet.
Driver is included with Windows :)
Good god I do the same exact thing.
I think it was the HP printer drivers that finally pushed me over the edge. 400MB for a printer driver, sweet Jesus.

They work for me on my BlackBerry 9930.
Christwire scares me a lot, and I consider myself a pretty fundamental Christian.
Christwire is a satire website.

How do you you figure that?
The case in point is obviously Apple. They do not do an end-run around the providers as you advocate for. Yet there is no such software on any iPhone.
How do you know?
It's not about altruism, it's about longer term incentives. If Bitcoin fails to work properly because people hoard transactions then the worth of your own Bitcoin using business and stored value goes down.
Wouldn't the value of your bitcoins go up/stay stable as the supply of bitcoins would decrease (even slightly) by you being a jerk?
If he's looking to purchase new books to read - what about a Kindle DX with the font size jacked all of the way up?
Also, Librevox the free alternative - doesn't have nearly as large of a selection though.

Do you have a citation for this? I'd be interested to read more about it.
...and the delays begin. The vaporware process continues...
The design of my 25 year old car I'm sure is not out of the ordinary. I've heard later ford SUVs/mini-vans have the same design.
