Just wait until one of those systems is compromised, and your password for of your systems along with it. Password standardization is not such a good thing.
Interesting. Barracuda's recommended settings (I have one sitting next to me we no longer use) are to have the bounce-on-reject or whatever its called turned off. The default is to have it on, but the defaults are clearly defined as a least restrictive/change these to meet your environment before putting in production sort of thing.
Don't think about it as being a USB to 232 adaptor, think about it as a USB to 232 cable with a big lump in the middle of it, that happens to unscrew.
But you can still get laptops with 232s, you just have to look harder for them. Considering how little its used by the office/consumer marker, I'm surprised they've lasted on regular laptops this long.
Off topic, but any reason you went with ServerBeach instead of RackSpace? I'm looking at doing something similar, and keep running into RackSpace as the sort of default for managed boxes.
Can you give me an example? I'm scratching my head trying to thing of the last application I used that I didn't need to use a keyboard with. VLC (and other apps that just play, and not edit, video) is the only thing I could come up with.
Jewish law dictates that when someone dies, they're to be buried as soon as possible. Within 24 hours is preferred (as I understand it - I'm not Jewish). Seeing how we have 13 Jewish Senators and something like 35 Jewish members of the House (via Wikipedia), I see this being nixed somewhat quickly.
I've found Windows to do better under virtualization than one would expect. ESX server does some nice tricks for shaving overhead amounts when you have multiple clients of the same OS.
Heck yeah we do. I had a case of the real stuff sent to me for Christmas last year (relative lives near the bottling plant), and the difference is incredible.
NSA publishes guides on a number of different things, including how to secure operating systems and routers. It falls under part of their infosec mandate.
Incorrect - Netboot over a gig link provides faster restores than over firewire (varies by data size, but we save 2 min per image), and is significantly more scalable.
Check into the Multicast features that came out as part of asr in 10.4.x. Its not ideal for one or two, but if you're doing a new round machines, it keeps network bandwidth from being so much of a problem.
It make sense to have one of your monitoring servers outside of your office. I'm not about to make all the internal services we user viewable to an outside IP, but 1) having a monitoring service make sure the internal monitor is functioning and 2) making sure public services are functional to the outside world has a lot of value.

Don't overlook the low tech method of just running a backup client in the VM. Separately, make use SAN snapshots, and backup of those.

Just make it go back to the 2d one. defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean YES; killall Dock

Say hello to stock in Polycom and Tandberg!
Ditto to that (hence the sig).

Probably because at any place that's not an IT company (and under a thousand people), all of those jobs are the same 1-5 guys.
I dunno. The disgusted looks on the face of the women he was pointing at was hilarious. That said, wasn't a big fan of the Tobey= John Travolta + AFI.
Most managers don't have the discretion to offer a 10x salary to anyone they manage, even if they wanted to.
No clue, but it was playing in the rest rooms of the local theater last night when I was dragged to see Spiderman 3 again last night.

No, I'm saying Vent/TS don't do an especially good job at handling their VOX, so you should use push to talk (which they have and support).
Not really (its a TS/Vent issue - they don't implement it), but our solution is to just recommend using a push to talk key. Mouse Button 4 for me.

No complaints by me, I'm just pointing out that PXE workflows don't work on these.

No PXE on the current Intel Macs. They're netboot enabled, but its not quite the same thing.
