You failed at the one job you had to do. You need to have people to trust your OS. That is all. But you couldn't resist and loaded it with spyware and possible government back-doors. There is not a corporate account who will even consider this OS now.
I guess the even-number-windows-versions-are-crap rule continues.
Why not run fiber in the entire valley instead of just Scottsdale and Tempe? The north and west sides of Phoenix has a lot of families that could use 1 Gbs or 10 Gbs Internet.
TRUE: In the ol' days of Colorado SuperNet (www.csn.net) the mail relay systems were named Moe, Larry, and Curly. They were all 486 systems. Almost immediately Curly fried, and a replacement named Shemp was installed. Before you knew it, Moe died, then Shemp developed some weird hardware problem, leaving only Larry to continue on. A number of new mail relay systems were deployed, but good ol' Larry kept going. After Qwest Communications bought CSN, Larry was junked. I wonder how many gigabytes of email that Larry relayed over the years....
Because of backwards compatability, Moe, Larry, Curly, and Shemp live on at SNI.NET, and Qwest Communications.
Be carefull how you name systems, because sometimes they are around in DNS for *years*.
I tested one of the 1st of 4 alpha xp1000 ev6 pre-production systems last year under Linux. I think I was the only person who did, because everyone else used digital unix or NT. It was, by far, the fastest Linux system I've ever used. I have another ev6 system coming in this week.

I had not thought much about it. I plan on retiring using Unix/Linux.
Microsoft,

I appreciate what you have done. I understand your ideology and wish you the best.
Thank you.
It would not be that hard to do. Just follow the I-10, I-17, Hwy 101 and Hwy 303 for the backbone fiber.

I, for one, welcome our new reptillian overlord.
Been there. Done that. In 1990.
Hell, the damn programs are still in use at my old company today. Nobody else knows enough to really change them.
Trying to forget all that....
I just joined NCI - I am a no-code tech from the early 90's - My ARRL membership just came due, and I'm not going to renew.
