Civil & Technical designers use the CAPLOCK key in conjunction with AutoCAD / Microstation all the time. Almost nothing I draft has any lowercase text on it.
I'll bite. The "blanks" on most of the paper forms we have to turn into various city & state governments for permitting & such are so small that if you are successful in filling them out, they probably won't be legible. It's much easier for me to scan them to a PDF, & make some "blanks" that you can fill in. Took me about 30 minutes total the last time I had to make one. It would take me a lot longer to do this in HTML & they still wouldn't look like the forms that the DOT expects us to be using.
Now, companies buy website templates for sixty bucks non-exclusive (three grand exclusive) and they're sitting in a server room at a place called Dreamhost or Hostgator. The content is maintained via a CMS run by the Marketing secretary. Employers and employees are using Gmail and other cloud-based e-mail systems because the lines between personal and work IT space have become so blurred. Nobody needs help printing anymore, because an entire generation has been raised on the Internet and personal computer systems.
I don't know where you work, but it sounds pretty crappy.

Kill them with fire?
I seriously wish that /. would limit AC posts to something like 2 a month per account / IP. That would seriously reduce the S/N ratio here.
I'll just stick with NoScript, thanks.
Probably the owners of Tynt Insight & their employees. I wouldn't worry about it, they just wasted their mod points anyhow.
BZZZT, wrong!

Or maybe they stayed this long because they thought they could do some good for the people living under China's heel?
I thought you could wash just about any keyboard in the dishwasher as long as you let it dry out completely afterwards.
More than likely, yes.
1.) MagicJack is the product that parent & grandparent posters were talking about.
2.) If they are demoing it at CES that means it's not even being sold yet.
It's not even out yet.
Consumer Reports likes it.

Damn near anyone on this website should be able to make their own Magic Jack "standalone" out of spare parts in the closet.
Yeah it works. Call quality isn't as good as a landline, but I had a better time using MJ than Skype.
Yeah I usually avoid everything they publish too, but Dragon Age & American Magee's Alice are two big exceptions.
Hint: If you bought a couple of multiplayer EA games, that includes you. But at least you got a chance. ^^
TFTFY

WOOOSH!!!!
I know that crap doesn't work. That wasn't the point of my post.
Even if they did it with telepaths or clarivoyants it would still be an invasion of privacy.

Not to me at least. I've never met an (Euro-born) Italian that didn't have a pole up his ass or didn't think they knew better than anyone else.
History says you are wrong. The US was a protectionist state for a very, very long time with very good results.
Have we heard anything from him lately? I kinda figured he was dead & buried under a bombed-out cave somewhere.
Ammo? Knives don't take ammo & aside from 3 round shotguns, they aren't allowed to have real weapons.
