  1. Re:The situation sucks, but is Linux the answer? on How One Small Business Switched to Ubuntu · · Score: 1

    Dell doesnt provide real install disks. They are also modified Dell versions. On my win2k3 server cds, guess what? THERE IS NO RECOVERY CONSOLE OPTION! - And full price was paid for the cds. Dont buy the OS from Dell - go out and buy it with a 3rd party.

  2. Re:Damn US-centric website on IT Meets the World Cup · · Score: 1

    heh..Both ABC/ESPN are transmitting the games, as well as ESPN360.com (if you have an account with a broadband partner). Also, Univision will be showing the matches.. And as far as I know one of the ESPN channels will be showing it in HD.
    Just look at your local schedule. Its all there.

  3. That depends on what service he has with you on Bad Behavior on the 'Net - Who Pays the Bandwidth Bill? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Is he hosting something on your servers or he has a box co-located? I would say he is responsible if he has to administer his box - otherwise, the ISP should bear the costs

  4. Re:Recording your calls on Telcos Play Both Sides of Telemarketing War · · Score: 1

    Some states (like maryland) require the consent of both parties - Just because your state might allow it ,if you are communicating with someone on another state that has stricter laws, the stricter one applies (according to a federal ruling a few years back if I recall correctly).

  5. Re:Whatever, I have a cell phone on Telcos Play Both Sides of Telemarketing War · · Score: 1

    Incorrect there. Just put your cell phone as any phone in a list, and you can be sure you will be getting calls sooner or later.

  6. Is the source of PUNs going to increase? on Talk To Xanth Creator Piers Anthony · · Score: 1

    You have made several puns that relate to windows, and I guess with GNU/Linux, do you think the number of PUNs will increase? And will the audience get those?

  7. Re:I've said it before and I'll say it again... on Enhanced Carnivore To Crack Encryption Via Virus · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Not to mention that older versions of pine (up to 4.2.1) are vulnerable to a remote exploit by simply opening your mailbox
    4.1 was vulnerable
    http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/16269
    and I know that 4.21 was vulnerable to a different exploit, but cant find the URL atm

  8. Re:Look toward auto racing. on Are Games Turning Kids Into Jocks? · · Score: 1

    Well, while I do think that games do enhance the reaction time and analytical thinking, what ISNT shown is how much computer games detract from one's social life. I know plenty of people that have their weekend activities limited to computer games and very little social interaction. Like everything in life, balanced activities will make for the well rounded individual.
