Well, the nice thing about queries is that files can be accessed by last modified and any other META data assigned like author.
Users likely won't need to learn anything. Give them a query builder with basic and advanced options and they will be finding their documents in no time.
As for corporate IT management, you have the option/ability to view all of the queries and move from there. I think this would make the corporate control of machines easier. Auditing, Rights-Management, whatever. Restrict a user from running queries on Excel documents or documents modified by the bookkeeper, or only allow them to find their own.
The whole thing is nothing more than the way we logically approach the filesystem in our minds. If we change it, we change the way we look at it. But some people won't catch on. A doctor friend doesn't get file, folder navigation to this day. Searching would fit his mind better. And I know he isn't the only one.
You somewhat have a point, but it overlooks the purpose of a corporation. The State of Washinton gave Microsoft a corporate charter, with the idea that they would produce something of value and perform a service for the state (ie: its citizens). Let's ignore the fact that this is an overseas matter for now.
To say that we should protect corporations from losses due to alternative products would be disasterous. We are supposed to demand that Microsoft works in our best interest (as long as they have that charter) and we are not supposed to think of theirs. I know this isn't how things are; but how there were and how they should be.
Standard hardware from Apple will help kill Windows. Linux will be a lot easier to develop when the hardware is standard.
I think Apple should/will open the hardware to software developers. This will allow them to say: "Run OSX, it's already installed. Or you can take a chance with Linux".
If there wasn't any benefit these genes gave, common sense would suggest they'd have died out long ago.
Not really.
There is no way for your DNA to know what you need and don't need. Useless genes stay unless they are harmful. I mean, most of your DNA is absolute garbage and some bacteria have DNA strings 300 times the length of human DNA for no good reason.

The Google Maps team recently noticed your Google Maps tile "stitcher" to see developers interested in our products and we commend you on the service. That said, we would appreciate it if you voluntarily remove your service and stop using Google Maps on your web site. The service violates the Maps Terms of Service available at http://www.google.com/help/terms_local.html, and jeopardizes our ability to make Google Maps available to the public because it encourages non-personal use of Google Maps.
If you have any questions or concerns, or if we have contacted the wrong people, please feel free to contact me directly. Otherwise, amueltc please let us know as soon as possible when the service has been removed.
(Apple created the gold standard mp3 player, why not create the gold standard PC? I say they will continue to design machines the same way - Intel chips will allow for smaller machines with more power (see: Mac Mini shortcomings) - uncrackable, all you need, powerful, easy to use, stable Macintosh PC. Maybe it's a move to use more open source developers. x86 is well documented and used - liked by many open source developers. Open the hardware for the Mac and create a universe of Linux distributions designed for each PC/Notebook/Tablet/MiniPC model. Standard hardware makes development a breeze, doesn't it?)
AD is actually a fusion of a number of technologies. Most notably Kerberos for authentication, LDAP for identification and dynamic DNS/DHCP. As is common with Microsoft architectures all of these have been amalgamated into one large reasonably amorphous blob. So the presence of a directory server, even one as formidable as the Netscape product, does not imply an AD replacement.
And...
So a directory server does not imply an Active Directory replacement. That will require tight integration of a number of technologies, not the least of which is an architecture for answering authorization questions.
Why does it seem that I'm a shill for Novell lately?
eDirectory is exactly that. It integrates authentication (multiple level, best in the business), software deployment, user rights, extended TCP/IP support, DNS/DHCP servers...
No it isn't open source, but replacing Active Directory can be done with an *open-like* or *open-friendly* solution is possible. (Sorry, after laughing at Novell's history for so long I've used eDirectory and found out why it is better than AD. I wish more people out there would use eDirectory, that's all...)
My feedback will be in the form of a letter which can only be read 3 times. Afterward the paper and ink dissolves into your bloodstream. If you ever discuss the contents of the letter you will die of exsanguination. It affects your DNA and is present for three generations. The only thing you can do is purchase another compaint from me if you want to share it. A small fee of $17,814.72 in the form of a check will allow you to show the letter to one other person once.
An unlimited license is not available at this time, expect to wait 65 years.
Rude comment, considering this doesn't have anything to do with the browser. Moderators must be getting lazy....
Thank you to anyone who listens and relises I shouldn't need to upgrade my graphics card to check websites.
Well, that is the price of progress. I remember needing to replace my *CPU* to view websites (Java 3D modeling needed "MMX" or whatever...). Your complaint should be with the people who are building the websites. The browser is simple enough to put on screen - we've been doing that for years. It's your fault for wanting to do the latest, greatest thing.

Let's not forget that they are a corporation with a charter from the State of Delaware, oh wait...

Linux distros which have a standard set of hardware to program and debug for will accelerate and stablize development.

While we are on the subject, got any bittorrent sites that you want to expose?
(I say that with total humor, you're not an asshole. I don't think...)
It is easy to make a few bucks from a Microsoft failure...
it's called being an MCSE
I told them to throw away all those hubs and upgrade to a nice set of Layer-3 switches, no one ever listens to me though...
People will buy them if they are shiney!

Yeah well, it's known as the first compression method...
Too bad Darfur is a landlocked region.
Don't worry, their systems are back online and back to reporting the current news: the death of *BSD
You've got to be careful.

If that computer was connected to the Internet, you end up networking with everyone they network with.
On top of that, if you're connected to the Internet you can really *screw yourself* in the end.

Even runs on linux...
If you express your side of the debate in a realisticly reasonable manner then there might actually be a chance someone will consider your point.
And if they don't like my well laid out point?
You guessed it - I'm a loonie! A crazy lefty, or some other smear.

If only it could lift people out of Darfur...
(I'm afraid to fly, logic aside, *this* terrifies me.)
You forgot to point out that it really hasn't stopped anyone yet...
It is exactly the things that we can't see from the satellite that are important...
