So you're basically saying that, when you look very closely, the sun solution is no different than the equivalent F/OSS solution.

Ahem. The story did not say that it was a widespread problem, though there's no evidence to the contrary either. They said the boxes were very unstable. A crashing box, to me, seems very unstable. The only higher level of unstability would probably be spontaneous combustion, or perhaps explosion.
Perhaps you might want to take the 'read the story and then post' approach in the future.
No, it does not need a physical wire connecting it to I2. You have no clue what you're talking about. Tell us why the HUB needs a physical wire connecting it to I2, and I'll give you a cookie.
Last time I saw a Sun office (east coast), people didn't even have permanent desks! You just sat down and did your work whereever an open desk existed -- but things might have changed inthe past 2 years.
From the website: Gaim users can log in to multiple accounts on multiple IM networks simultaneously. This means that you can be chatting with friends on AOL Instant Messenger, talking to a friend on Yahoo Messenger, and sitting in an IRC channel all at the same time.
It's really not that hard to, you know, go to the web site and READ about the product./. is not your personal research assistant.

Internship != experience. At most, it's a summer job, at least it's a homework assignment. It's great if you accomplished something, but in my hiring I treat it no different than a homework assignment. Really, it doesn't impress anyone to treat non-experience as experience.
I use TDL to write down what I do, and send off a once-monthly report to my supervisor. He seems fine with that. He might pop in (announced in advance) to the office for an informal chat once a week or so, but that's it. Twice weekly status meetings are a warning sign of micromanagment.
And if my aunt had wheels, she'd be a teacart, but that is neither here nor there.
The article is what we are discussing here. No one cares that you wrote a (most likely unreadable, noting your post) book, and the subject at hand is not about unencrypted PDFs. You were replying to the following excerpt of a post:
Tim O'Reilly arguing that the Google Library Project is a good thing for authors in general
You impled, by quoting the above, that you were refuting that claim. Yet, somehow, we're talking about a totally different technology, and no one was notified but you.
However, it would wrong of me to recommend to a client that they actually consider a new installation of Netware just because it's technically superior, or worse, just because I like it more.
Are you high? Of course you should recommend a product because you think it's technically superior -- that's your job, that's why you're the expert. You pick out products. As long as it works, and it works well, and isn't a support headache, what does it matter what the server software is?
If you were a real statistics geek, you'd use your own functions or whatever excel calls them. Saying that the bundled statistical analysis that comes with OpenOffice sucks is like saying that this new coloring book sucks cause it's in black and white.
I just want to be able to look at the phone after the movie and have it tell me who called, if anybody, as it sometimes takes hours for voicemail notification to get to my phone.
You have obviously never been to a really poor neighborhood. They don't have $120 per year for dial-up Internet access. Some don't even have phones. Others struggle just to keep the electric bill paid so that the lights stay on.
Excuse me?
I work in Newark, NJ. Talk about poor neighborhoods -- kids have PLENTY of money. Most have two or three jobs, and for many of the poorest families, most of their utilities and rent is paid for by the government, so their money is free for them to spend on sneakers and puffy coats. They claim to be poor, but these kids have some pretty impressive spending cash.
Take a walk around some time, you'll be amazed at what these kids have.
at LEAST $9.50 for the tickets -- that's $19 so far, just to get in the door. A drink can run up to $4, so we're at $27. Popcorn for two can run up to $4 again, putting us over $30, and that's for HUMAN sizes. I suppose in Podunk, things may be a little cheaper. Also, outside of NYC, most of the big, nice theaters are out on the highways, so you'll have to figure in gas too!
$30+ is not worth it, especially when morons are allowed to make noise during the movie.
At least in my train station (Newark, NJ) if you happen to leave an electronic device anywhere, you can expect to have the train station closed and get a nice visit at your house from the FBI.
HAH. They said that with Cable, opening up DSL, ISDN -- every time, it would 'bring the price down'. Right. If I pay $49.95 for my internet access, you can be pretty damn sure that's what the power company will want to charge.

No.
I walk around Newark, NJ every day. It's a fine city, safer than many.
Are you a Java coder? We are looking for a java geek who can put up with severe punishment daily.

Oh -- ok. That makes this all a-ok then.

DSPAM, as it's running in my cluster, is using way more ram than the WRT54G physically has. Probably not a good idea to run it on that little box.
Uh, yes.

Huge? Massive? What, are you some sort of puny midget who has T-Rex arms? Seriously, dude. Get over it already.
I love my XBOX. Maybe that's because I'm not some wimpy whiney geek.
I was referring to releasing an unencrypted PDF.

Bra-vo. Yes, we (meaning you) should RTFP.

How would you prefer to pay for your transportation network? How about the costs that go along with driving a internal combustion-powered auto?
LOTS AND LOTS OF BIG, ROUND, BLACK KNOBS.
.. umm .. yeah.
We know what you meant here, but
OK. Let's change 'geocaching' to 'NailerFellatesHorses'.
Anyone going to find my NailerFellatesHorse today?

Where do you live? Do you have a girlfriend/wife?
To go to the movies in the NYC metro area:

I like your wording -- THEIR airwaves. Yes, the HAMS have first dibs on much of the contested bandwidth (after the military, of course).
Many hams may be old and crusty, but they're not a group to give up easily.
