Citrix is really for using a single, powerful server and serving up the equivalent to many vnc sessions simultaneously. One sad drawback (apart for all the $$$) is sucky printer support.
It seems like 50% or more of the spam I receive is some kind of pyramid scheme. I wish law enforement agencies put in some effort against these entities (I've heard precious little done on this front).
Seems to me spammers should be liable somehow for the bandwidth they waste. I believe the US postal service is paid duly by companies that send junk mail.. there's nothing to restrict spammers on their bandwidth.
Then you get into the 'forging headers' side of things.. if someone's offering a good or service, doesn't this amount to fraud?
I don't mean to sound naive but what is the impetus that makes spam a revenue generator? Is it some kind of "sucker to spam" ratio.. for every 1 person who falls for the spam, enough revenue for 1000 spam e-mails is generated?
Many DARPA projects are done in cooperation with universities and many of the software supporting them end up as OSS. Here's a list of DARPA research areas, tying in to projects. I know MIT's project oxygen has helped a lot in the world of linux on handhelds.
Mom's iMac was preventing access to mission critical application (System folder corruption not allowing AOhell to let her into msnbc crossword puzzle with morning cup o' tay)
"No problem" says I.. "plunk down a wad for OS X"
Financing and resources secured. I arrive for a gnarly bit o dinner + boredom watching installation bar creep.
Mundanity ensues and my 1st install of OS X goes well after last touching a mac when options included a mac, or a mac without a mac.
Gratuitous use of AOHell under OS X (they stole my KDE backdrop dammit!) embarks and I am stumped by 10 Across.
Foregoing urge to insert foot into crt, I depart.

21+ hours later and no whiny calls about iMac. I kick the cat instead. Job well done: Thanks APPLE!
I can't imagine hundreds of thousands of kids staying up late at night with laptops under their covers instead of the far more traditional book & flashlight.
But with an iPAQ you can snuggle down and read away:-) Already read the Hobbit to my little'uns this way and now onto FOTR. (little reader I wrote myself in python/pygtk). Not your normal mode of delivery but it works.
Comparing the two on security issues is tough. With windows-based systems, your 'configurable' options are limited (unless prepared to scour ms knowledge base for occasional registry fixes + patches - of course the patches typically lock you in to a certain behaviour.. not always desired).
With linux, you can make a system as secure or insecure as you wish - with the 'HOWTO's' coming from a wide variety of sources. So..
Limited security configurability and limited knowledge base or massively configurable system in terms of security with large knowledge base? I'll stick to linux (or *bsd;)
It depends on what the regulations say governing a particular record type.
DOL, IRS, DOT, OSHA, EPA, etc. all have their own requirements for record retention times.
Probably the best thing anyone/business can do is discern what these are and keep only these items along with any record that's pertinent after time. But fulfilling legal recordkeeping requirements should be the top priority in such a review.
After perusing the linuxhacker stuff and looking carefully at the jailbait files, I was able to use jailbait's/etc/lilo.conf as a basis for booting into debian potato (dumped onto a microdrive).
Now it's on debian-sid with gnome running nicely (Trident video driver). USB networking fine (2.4.16 kernel with kaweth and pegasus both rolled in for 3com usb + linksys adapters).
The only outstanding item I've not been able to get working is the audio chip. Here's a link on what it is. The annoying bit is support for this does exist in the current 2.4.16 a97 codec drivers but via an intel i810-type chip. This is AMD based.

The point is this handheld will soon be shipping linux. They are actively building support for it right now. Hence the link to the linux status page.
They baited many os projects and are now switching terms and setting the stage to really pull the rug out at their convenience.
I now think entities (companies, organizations, et al.) should also post a minimum time-limit to an "offer" - whether dollars exchanged or not.

Seems like an industry that hasn't heard of the term: "value-added".
It will have the crl bootloader + familiar distro.
Details will follow.
Anticipation...anticipation, it's making me wait!

Seeing some dork spend $2900 on this overpriced crap, priceless.
In fact it is working quite well for those hacking off of Russell King's arm tree for the iPAQ.
See here for details.

Who,What,When,Where,Why, and How?
If they can't all be credibly answered, it shouldn't be passed off as newsworthy.
Do the newswires now compete with the tabloids directly?
So much for the word, "intelligence".
Corvallis, now this.. hopefully their new push toward linux on their products will survive all this mess.
Blummy Days!
MS: "No.... we just extort standards!"
And do you see this trend changing anytime soon, and why?
