I have checked everybodies desktop twice now and I'm still getting warnings in the mail server logs and also getting nasty emails from other companies telling me to stop sending virus'
I would use the following solution depending on your needs:
Linux on the desktop. This will enable you to have remote X sessions. Also add rdesktop for remote Windows sessions via Win2k Terminal Services. And if you really need it, use Citrix client.
in a Windows environment RDP wins hands down. I admin my Windows servers from a Linux box with a native RDP client called rdesktop and it works better than VNC! If I'm admining my Linux boxes I do use VNC or native X, although I mainly use SSH for everything.
I have 2 of these cages in my MP3 server. This server has 6 x 40GB IDE drives in a RAID 5 configuration running from a 3ware 7810 card. It serves 50 users without any problems.
My company sells/supports these cards and as such we use them in our own servers.
We are using the 3ware 6000 series cards for our Win2k Domain controller, our Lotus Domino mail/app server, and our database server (Linux/PostgreSQL).
These servers support 50 users and performance is very good. So as SysAdmin I am very happy with the 3ware cards.
I work for Acer Australia and we did this for an ISP not so long ago. Essentially it was a RAID 5 system using external storage boxes and multiple drives. Backup was a bastard, but we just used a massive data tape library (Travan I think). It was all using standard off the shelf x86 type hardware, nothing special at all. Worked very well...

I have the same problem here...

grrr, I hate Microsoft crap!

ie. best solution/platform is Linux
same in Australia...
I'd love a few CueCat's
CS sucks!
biggest fag boy cheaterz game ever!
Try a real game like Tribes or Tribes 2.
We use this exact solution in our premises. We have also attached an external 1U storage array whcih enables us to have ~30days of storage.
My advice, go with a professional digital solution. Analogue/tape is dead (at least in Australia).
It has to be called Darwin...
We are moving to a product called Distrib running on Linux.
Distrib is based on Unidata (from IBM/Informix). Whilst the package is costly (AU$90k), it will easily handle our AU$100Million business.
I actually have an engineering sample motherboard using Intel chipset and DDR ram. It is based on the 845 chipset...
But in my current job, its strictly 9-5.
They just don't seem to want to socialise outside work...
Not the 3ware cards...
they use max 5% cpu.
The 3ware RAID cards support large drives (>137GB)...
The 3ware cards rock; I have a server I take to LAN games. I setup the server as an ftp server and it easily supports 40+ users for 18hours!!!
We use them in our servers and they support 50+ users without problems.

the latest beta of Mozilla is very fast and stable for me (I run BlackBox as my window manager)
Anybody got a mirror???
Unfortunately I cannot remember the company name! Just wanted u to know they do exist....I will reply again if I find it.
lol, here in Australia standard price for a movie is $13.50!
we have recently trialled their products and found them to be great!
Power on password
BIOS setup password
Hard Drive password
On high end systems; smart card/fingerprint reader
Add onto this OS based security and it makes for a reasonably secure setup
