I remember back in the day FF was a small footprint, fast browser, then it got bloated taking up huge amounts of memory, rendering slowly , and coming out with a ridiculous release cycle that killed any corporate backing it had. I cant think of any of my clients that use FF. Sorry but FF is going to have some major performance improvements to win the masses back.
So supposedly the US and British found evidence that Syria had used sarin, but refused to divulge the details. Now a mystery communication putting Iran and Syria together if attacked. First of all if they had intercepted this, why would they tell every one about it. Now Iran is going to find another form of communication since this one is compromised. The whole scenario is playing out like a bad 80's conspiracy movie.
Exactly, for every 10 IT people that crack it and use it on their own time, a hand full will be impressed by it and have their own company buy it. The rest are people that would have pirated it any way.
The decline is from the price point. My last place of employment had 1 HP UX server that costed upwards of 25K for software and specific HP hardware to run on. migrating to windows cost a fraction of that in OS licenses and hardware, even though it took 8 windows servers to do what the one UX server did, it was still cheaper.
You would have to make your racks precise to 1/100000 of an inch for your robot arm to fit snugly a server, unlike the ones out now you jam your finger trying to get the damn square nut clips in. Every server would have to be identical, or very close in size. There would need to be some sort of back plane to handle all of your connections maybe dual or quad port 10G.
I was working with a company who signed a contract with dell to have people start implementing "private clouds" on the Microsoft platform. I think they realized that most organization need more control over their data due to regulations and solutions like this may not meet those needs.
People tend to generalize however from what you said you should have no problems with your career. The over 40 issue in my experience is that programmers either get burnt out on doing the same thing for a long time, or refuse to keep up with current trends. You will get people that say they have been writing shell scripts on unix for the last 30+ years, well thats great, but what else can you do since not every thing is a unix shell. The fact that your actually looking to improve your knowledge makes you even more marketable and desirable as an employee. people that just want to do the same thing over and over again till they die will not make it in todays IT world.
This is actually a touchy subject. What the bill does is excludes smaller companies that make under $1 million in profits as to promote small businesses (the good). It forces larger company's to charge sales tax, from a business perspective this makes sense as to create fair competition (the bad). From a consumer perspective this sucks balls and I probably wont be able to afford all my newegg gear now (the ugly).
Even If they made the best Windows OS ever, it is already tainted by the name alone. If Windows Vista came out with a Windows Vista 2.0, would any one have bought it? Fuck no!
My suggestion to MS is to distance themselves from the Windows 8 brand, bury it in the back yard and don't look back. Make the Metro UI an add-on option but boot to a typical desktop and start menu out of the box.
Any one that would use Slashdot in their greeting would be hung up on.

They wanted to leave the USA and become their own country. Why would any one be surprised by this?

This means they people who are way more apt then me will try even harder to hack the Xbox One and turn it into something every one actually wants.

No wonder we are a country of ignorant fat ass's and the rest of the world hates us.
graduating college ,going to work, getting girlfriends \ married, or dying of heart attacks would be the best guesses.

i think some one forgot the 'B' at the beginning of the first word.
ill take Windows activation over RHEL activation any day.

so i fail to see the importance of this.

Next your going to tell me that portable devices have over inflated prices just to turn a larger profit.
