Do you have a point, or are you rambling? Both linux and windows support booting off CDs for installation, and both provide boot disks, so that point is rather moot. What I was saying is that the fact that someone knowledgeable set up her computer for her does not make the OS more "user friendly" for the masses.
Does calling someone a troll because they disagree with whatever your opinion is make you feel better? The point is, I've set up many a windows machines that work just fine, never have any complaints from their users. Just because you aren't clueful about something doesn't make you an expert. And i'd give her a hell of a lot better odds at installing windows right than Linux.
Sheesh indeed
Right as I was about to click the link to read this story earlier today, a router went down somewhere about 8 hops away. A large chunk of the internet was inaccessible at least in this building...

Mostly correct, authenticating through SSL has nothing to do with it. You can use SSL and a standard html form for authentication. It's when you use basic/NTLM authentication that you need licenses. MS has an internet connector licensing pack for this situation so you don't have to pay for every user using it just for web authentication.
Not that it really matters, but I've gotten a win2k machine (it's been configured for a special task) to boot in just around a minute. 20-30 seconds of which is the motherboard's POST (so damned slow, only bad part) with the other 30-40 being win2k boot time. And that time is from pushing the power button to a full desktop (I configured auto-logon.) Running a 266 mhz p2, 64mb of ram.
I recently went to an ASP site and got this message and I just wonder what's really going on. I mean, I LIKE Netscape. I like having an option...and I thought that was part of the reason behind a server side scripting language.
I think if you read this part again you can see where he got the idea that they were implying it was ASP's (and therefore Microsoft's) fault that the page didn't display correctly. The comment about a page not displaying correctly in a CLIENT and linking that to a SERVER scripting environment is questionable at best. I think you would call it "subtle" FUD.
Outlook is the only client that can connect to Exchange? What, you mean pine doesn't support pop3? And there's no client that supports IMAP? I guess pop3 and IMAP are MS proprietary protocols? Exchange supports both, and SMTP for outgoing. But I guess it's not your fault you're an uninformed dolt.
If you took the time to actually LOOK at the site, you'd see that by far the US is the "titan." There are four countries included under EU on that chart. If you're going to do that, just group Canada and the US together as North America. Hmm, 28.7... that's bigger than 27.4... but if you use the facts then you have no point I suppose.
If you're running an IRC server, you have to expect this. I'd imagine every network with more than 3 users will be DoSed big time at least once. For the "big three" I'm sure it's almost constant.
You're joking, right? Hosting multiple sites on one IP address is horribly easy. Look up "host headers" and you'll see. Using PHP? you're joking here again, right? Add the file association for the PHP interpreter, and off you go! In addition, if someone were to take the time to write a PHP engine that integrated with the WSH (someone may have already done it, I'm not sure) you could use PHP right in ASP pages. ActiveState has already done this for Perl. Someone else already covered killing hung services, I'll let you re-read their post. When you said you programmed for both web servers, you meant years in "internet time" (IE, 2 days) right?

Remove linux from your grandmother's computer, give her the CD. Let her install and configure it.

But then you'd be yelling at them about GPL violations
Actually, paint in 2k allows you to save as a bitmap, jpeg, or gif.

Good thing Canada's a big place... You need a big place to hold 110% of the population.
