I put them on my resume. Mainly because it wont hurt and it keeps HR and the headhunters happy
The best play if you are of the mind that certifications are of minimal importance (I include myself in this group, both when applying and hiring) is to include them, but make them the very last thing on your resume, definitely page 2 of a 2-page resume.
That boils down to the same reason ANYONE is armed though: it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. I don't think it's a wise move for our police to leave home their weapons because someone might find it scary.
Nobody has suggested the police should have gone in unarmed. They would have had their pistol at their side as they would at any other moment they were on-duty. It's the assault weapons that were a problem here. They are appropriate when raiding gangs or drug houses, but even then they are rarely used. Making intimidation the rule of thumb is part of what is making things worse for police departments and the citizens of the USA.
An insightful observation, but there are dozens of other variables at play. One of the more important of which is a heavier tendency for undernourished children to come from a poor socio-economic background and all the other correlational "bad stuff" that comes along with that.
False; they are evil by association, just like the contractors working on the Death Star in Return of the Jedi. Don't try and tell me they didn't know what they were working on!
Perhaps, but many of these are not $100 motherboards. High-end P67 boards run in the $200-300 range.
This also would not be a small scale refurb operation -- thousands of identical boards could be processed in an assembly-line fashion making this much more cost-effective than a single worker refurbishing whatever came in the mail that day.
Why can't they just give the motherboard NIC's first priority (eth0-eth4) in order of their label, then PCI in order of their slot followed by any USB or anything else
For the same reasons the guy you replied to said - bad BIOSes as well as the fact the OS won't know which are "on-board" and which aren't since they're all hanging off the PCI or PCI-E bus.
Continuing to use your license after you've sold it to someone else is no different than not getting a license in the first place.
Look, I don't agree with copyright infringement but what license are you talking about? I didn't sign anything or even click through an EULA when I bought any of my hundreds of CDs.
Users at at the senior management level. They are clamoring for and (due to their influence) getting iPhones and iPads into the organization. I've seen this at multiple large organizations including Fortune 500's.
To further worries about Microsoft's future, they have entered many, many markets in the past decade (gaming consoles, MP3 players, web search, mobile OS to name a few) and failed to be profitable in any of them. As you point out, the only cash cows (Windows, Office) are being squeezed by free alternatives painting a gloomy picture of the future.
A turnaround is certainly possible, but Ballmer ain't the guy who's going to do it.
Shifting debt is how apologists like the grandparent post are able to justify the claim that the TARP funds were repaid in full.
Goldman's AIG exposure must be factored into any consideration of the concept of repayment. Goldman would be bankrupt today had the government not bailed out AIG. The government's bailout of AIG was in effect a proxy bailout of Goldman. Goldman is not settled until AIG repays their bailout and that is a long, long way off.

Oh, it's stagnation alright. Have you looked at their stock price over the last decade?
Investors are right to call for his head, Ballmer has been MS' biggest problem for many years.
But if they consider a tax on masturbation there will be a SLASHDOT REVOLUTION

What about multithreaded software that DOESN'T have engineering insight built into it? (ie. almost all multithreaded software)
I'm jealous of walkable, affordable city living, but Vancouver sure as fuck doesn't meet the affordable criteria!
Damn Republican. What we need is a Democrat president who is not a puppet of the corporations.
Why does it have to be a Democrat or Republican? What we REALLY need is a viable alternative.
For Sandy bridge (and the last gen Westmere too for that matter), the motherboard cost is a wash between Intel and AMD.
"TFA is about ambulance."
EMS and Fire are often dispatched by the same staff.
I think you were on your way to a good point, but you lost me at "artificially low price points".
It became outdated as Gates relaxed control of the company. The replacement is several years overdue.
Seems not everyone at Sony is evil.

So you "don't know how much incremental cost there is" but to claim it's "nothing or almost-nothing is clearly not true."
I'm not a name-caller either, but I can understand the frustration of the poster you are replying to.
For the record, the incremental cost of 300GB for a major telco in Canada is somewhere between 3 and 6 dollars.

What you say is true (fellow Teksavvy customer here) but those rates are gone, gone, gone when usage-based billing (UBB) is allowed by the CRTC.

I don't imagine for one minute that large professional applications will ever be sold this way for the time being.
Well which one is it? "ever be sold this way" or "sold this way for the time being"??
His dayjob is trolling, you've just commended him for a job well done.
It's already been pointed out that Exxon's _profit_ is higher than Apple's _revenue_.
Indeed that has been pointed out. Now lets talk about Exxon's and Apple's growth prospects this fiscal year.
USB media is always (or nearly-always) formatted FAT32 making NTFS support fairly unimportant in the first place.
Who desires this?
