  1. Re:Story from a third party on Bad News from Yahoo · · Score: 3

    Yahoo did not suspend trading of shares, NASDAQ did. The exchange has the right to do this if trading gets too volitile...

  2. Double-check your math on Ricochet Dead By June? · · Score: 1

    Yahoo Finance reports the UK exchange rate is 1.449 US Dollars to the pound. So 40UK == 57.96US

  3. Not suprising... on Corel to Sell Off Linux Division · · Score: 1

    It's hard to make money selling a comodity, and there is no harder comodity than a free OS with lots of competitors.

  4. I prefer CIS grads on CS vs CIS · · Score: 1

    When I hire, I have found CIS grads to be gererally more qualified for applications work. CIS normally requires you to take accounting and business, in addition to systems analysis, and be grounded in multiple (computer) languages. In the program I graduated from, we were also were required to work on at least on team project.

    I have nothing against CS grads, or CS programs but if you are getting your degree to work in "the real world," CIS is better training.
