Been using Eudora for 11 Years, and still happy with it. The flat file format allows me to take the folders directly to a Linux system and plug them into Evolution without a problem.
Still using an older version (5.2), as I don't feel the need to keep up to date with the latest versions for good software that works.
As for the Embedded folder, I renamed it, and created an empty text file named "Embedded' and so Eudora can't put it's files under that structure. Works for me:-)
Well, the Swiss largest telecom company (Swisscom) has had a lot of flak in the past year, because they where not increasing the speed fast enough, accouring to IT professionals and journalists . We currently have 2400Kbps in download speed, across all the installed ADSL lines (unless the owner request less speed for less rent).
But what Swisscom has been trying for the past 5 years, is to cover the largest share of the country possible. As of the end of June there are 1'253'000 ADSL lines for 8 Million people. Now that's coverage:-)
"... It's just not feasable to provide high speed broadband everywhere..." It is feasable, but it is going to be expensive.
Lotus Notes (6.5.x) worked fine under WINE, until you started drag & dropping messages in folders. Then it because completly unstable. In the end I had to move to a VMware Workstation solution to keep using Notes under Linux.
I've been waiting for a native version for years. It's about time:-(
On a side not, VirtualServer is currently NOT gaining any market share in my country in medium to large companies. People try it... and move to VMware ESX platforms. VMware currently has a good head start on Microsoft. And it has what's very important for an Enterprise platform, it has large storage facilities (SAN, now NAS, NFS and iSCSI). Behind VMware you have EMC2. They storage company.
ROFL Naturally that the user base will increase... Have you tried to install the new Quicktime with HD x264 support on a Windows platform recently... well you can't get the Quicktime 7 client alone. It's a buddled iTunesSetup.exe program you need to install.
Over the past week, I've installed Quicktime 7 five times, and removed iTunes 6 five times. He he indeed you can remove the iTunes 6 as soon as you have Quicktime 7. But I guess most people will not do this operation.
Quick resume, over the past week, I've removed Apple iTunes more often than I've removed virus on my systems. Say if my statics are not wrong.. iTunes was removed 500% more often than Viruses...
We used to have actual Field Service contracts which guaranteed two hour response time, and that meant someone was on site in two hours, not returning a call within that time
Well I don't trust these field service contracts too much, unless I know the supplier has local or regional stock. I've seen it way to often recently, these companies (HP, Dell, EMC) can get you an engineer on site in 2/4 hours, but the spare parts might take a lot longer than the agreed time.
This is so dangerous. People who play good racing games and leave to take their car, will so quickly think they are back in their game and speed up. This has happenend to a good friend of mine. Never had a speeding ticket... plays one long session of Gotham racing. Heads home... and get's his driving license suspended due to his speed.
I beg to differ with your new content. I don't believe the WoW patches really add all that much content compared to Asheron's Call monthly story lines. I've had the please to play Asheron's Call (the first doh) for over 4 years. It's what kept people playing. Even it's sequel AC2 is dying off in a few weeks...
Bloodelves will tip the balance.

Worstening the side discrepancy even more(there's what, an average of 2-3 alliance to every horde across all servers, with only 2 servers having a large horde->alliance discrepancy) and ensuring the alliance doesn't get a chance to PvP.
I seriously think that the Bloodelves race, will seriously tip this balance. Some people select their race because of their presentation, some races by belief/affinity. I hope the alliance will get something like a semi-giants race to counter the Tauren in size.

I completly agree, different levels of authtorization based on the amount of transfer. To me the end-user didn't create the problem (sure she made a type, it happens), but the procedures and the risk-management are at fault here.

Having just done lots of risk-analysis reviews on multiple banking application, I cannot understand how a company doesn't employ a 4-eyes principle for any transaction above 10 Million, and needs a manager release for above 50 Million.
Eurex is fine, but when the staff using the application is limited, you don't get separation of duties or rotation of duties, and you can still be faced with a setup where 1 user has too much power.
You're quote is actually pretty accurate. Mauritius is an island with two/three high points in the center of the island. If on the oher hand you where talking about it's Neighbour 'La Reunion' which is 150km/~110miles away, that would be a different challenge, with multiple valleys, hills, mountains... FYI: Mauritius & La Reunion are French DOMTOM (Departement d'outre mer et Territoire d'outre mer).
In all the different RAID analysis on the internet, I never see people trying the HP SmartArray's. Those cards are the ones used by a lot Linux servers.
I'm looking forward to see how they are going to plan a uniform distribution of packages across such a large quantity of workstations... rpm/apt/yum/redcarpet2/zenworks/altiris ?
