While I actually use Retrospect (argh!) for the regular backup of our servers, I have a half dozen seats of SyncBack floating around on end user machines (laptops, primarily), development servers, as well as shuttling some smaller files around via FTP. With a little thought devoted to your backup schedules, it can be a really powerful tool.
Get off the couch? And sit, unmoving and expressionless, for god knows how long? Mmmmkay....forgive me if I don't immediately see why that's so much better.
Seriously, please be a joke. This shit is going to be hell to try and explain to everyone at work, and then un-explain later, without totally fucking up all the investment in getting them to not infect their machines with all manner of crap.:(

For flat data, sure a flat file is fine...for structured/hierarchical data, a flat file is:(
I think they used to make good PSUs, but they went astray somewhere...I've had two Antecs die on me in the past 6 months now (the last one with the same undervolt and pissed off RAID controller symptoms that you mentioned).
I decided to go with PC Power and Cooling 510W (~$200) for both my important machines. They have a (well-deserved, from what I know) reputation as having the best PSUs in the business. I would not, however, recommend going with the Silencer series as someone else in this thread recommended. They are basically repackaged Silverstones (which are themselves decent PSUs, admittedly) -- and do not meet the same specs that the PCPC "Turbo-Cool" series does. FWIW, you may see some reviews talking about excessive noise from the Turbo-Cools, but I think that was a previous revision - both units I got are very quiet.
and get a secure non-transferable download just like iTunes. DRM not required.
How would you go about making it "secure" and "non-transferable" without the DRM part? (Ignoring, for a moment, that DRM is neither secure nor does it necessarily make music non-transferable)
Your computerized "operator" is NOT my friend - just route my fucking call to one of your marginally competent live operators, and dispense with the virtual pleasantries already. Sprint/Embarq/whatever the fuq they're called now is the worst.
But, Civ 4 is a lot better than Civ 3 in terms of opportunites for less clicking and scrolling. I really don't see the point in bitching about the interface of a ~5 year old game...
The only clause that raised a flag in my mind was the long-term access to medical records, even in the event you die or become mentally incompetent. Other than that, the terms seem downright sane for such a potentially Orwellian study.
Big mistake IMHO. Real appears to suck just as badly today as they did when I swore I'd never use their player again, what, 7-8 years ago? But I guess money talks. I sure don't have much to throw Mozilla's way, so...
Why is it that most people automatically assume technological solutions to problems are infallible, and don't create any further problems? This certainly isn't limited to insurance adjusters and stolen cars, just another convenient reminder that when faced with something they don't understand, the average person seems to just shut down their brain and move on.
Regular bullets produce a sonic boom (the cracking sound that comes from a rifle)
There's also the small matter of creating an explosion to move the projectile...

And typical me not reading TF security advisory before posting. The actual wording from Microsoft is:
Do not open or save Word files that you receive from un-trusted sources or that you receive unexpectedly from trusted sources.

I'm sure the terrorists could help us out.
Repackaged Seasonics, not Silverstones. Need more coffee.

I could be missing something and maybe the card does support DX10
;)
It does indeed support DX10. As the first ever DX10 card, however, it probably will be put to shame by something else in 4-6 months regardless

That's precisely what I thought of - closely followed by "I sure hope a double-barrel shotgun blast will make them fold up and go away"
Upon further review, I think you're exactly right.

If voting machines were held to the same standards as ATMs, I would be very happy to cast my vote on even a Diebold machine.
My rule of thumb these days is 1.5x RAM, unless you're at 2GB, in which case I go with 2GB swap as well. This is for *gasp* Windows, though.

Sorry. It's just not.

You must have some karma to burn :)
I agree, though - I'd recommend SQL Server as a teaching tool over MySQL, Postgres, or Oracle any day, assuming price/licensing wasn't an issue.
ASP.NET 2.0

Downside: it probably won't work with PHP
