Sounds more like they switched to a dot-matrix printer. It too has little dots in all of its fonts. It also saves a ton when you're trying to print graphics...
We use Biztalk for a lot of enterprise-level XML parsing, and we get up to 200+ documents parsed per second. Of course, there's a lot of hardware being used - 3 2-processor processing boxes handling the workload, for example. But for a system pushing and pulling messages in and out of a SQL Server database it works pretty well. And these are pretty decently sized documents, doing mapping and using all kinds of functoids and whatnot.
What about Outlook's spell-checker? Would you 'banash' it as well?
What ever happened to the last "Outlook-killer"?

Whatever happened to Ximian, or Evolution, or whatever it was called? I thought *it* was going to be the Outlook killer. How many Limux apps does it take to kill MS Outlook?
Just because a kid can't write games natively to the XBox doesn't mean a kid can't find things to program with, whether he/she's running windows or linux.
You mean a company that creates a software system for financial and student transactions doesn't want an open forum on the security flaws contained in that software to be discussed on campus? What utter tyranny....
If I were a student on that campus I wouldn't want people openly talking about the system's flaws. I wouldn't want people cracking the system and tampering with any of my information that it contained - ESPECIALLY if this thing controls my meals, my dorm room and my exams.
Also, if I were the genius that found all of these system flaws, I would use it as a marketing opportunity to apply for a job at the company that wrote the software, supplying them with a detailed description of the problem and a proposed solution.
Why must this whole thing be so combative? Why is it so critical for this public forum to be held? If you find problems with the system, go to the company about it, not the public.
Not necessarily, at least. The technology in this particular instance is helping political activists pursue their agenda more than it is actually helping the environment.
I like linux a lot, but I'm tired of the constant updating I have to do in order to get features that already work in Windows. My biggest beef, however, is with the KDE, which doesn't seem to be very backwards compatible or upgrade friendly with every major release they come out with. So fuck 'em!

...which allows the incumbents to add all of those obscure amendments to bills that have nothing to do with the bills themselves. That's how pork-barrel spending is done.
Did they finally fix all of the bugs from the 3.0 release? Have they made 3.x a little more backwards compatible from 2.x? I made the mistake of upgrading from 2 to 3 thinking that the KDE would upgrade all of my old desktops, configurations, settings, etc. - I was barely able to get my mail out of KMail, and I lost all of my filters and rules in the process. KDE may have a pretty face, but I think the development work so far ( ESPECIALLY the documentation ) is half-assed at best. At BEST.
Want to impress me? Probably not, but I'll tell you anyways; it's real easy: fix the bugs. Write real, useful, consistent documentation. Set up the KDE so that when the many, many programs that core dump do their usual crash I'm able to automatically send that to the KDE people without having to run a 20-minute wizard. Write your fucking desktop program so that people upgrading can do so seamlessly and painlessly - just because you give me an open source desktop doesn't mean you ignore everything else BUT the source code. bah
Unrealistic goals. What the hell is an art therapist? What kind of degree did you get if all you can be out of college is an advertising copywriter(whatever that is, and what's wrong with it anyways)? Money is always the bottom line; don't get a college degree in the study that you love, get it in something that will sustain you while you pursue the study that you love. But money is the bottom line. Money is what pays the bills, feeds you, and keeps a roof over your head. If you want to be rich and successful, master the most marketable skills and use some prudent career management, and work like hell to climb your way up the pay scale. Dont' expect it to just fall in your lap just because you have a degree. Your degree will get you a job, but that's the first step. The next step is making something out of yourself.
That article is a complete load of crap on many, many levels. But it did seem to indicate that perhaps there's a market for career counselors...
When most of its bugs are quashed. Until then, it's more of a pain in the ass than it is half the adjectives you used to describe it, and not worth the pain trying to install.

Unless, of course, you can make a compelling argument as to exactly why a sixth grader would need one...
What did this guy make, and how can it be used?

if you find MSMQ isn't adequate to handle the high messaging volume, try using MQSeries either in a standalone or cluster environment.

And why, pray tell, should we feel ashamed of being so?
The other $7 must have gone back to the lawyers. I can't even buy a new CD for $13. This sucks.

Get over it.
If you want to buy a game console, buy one.

Never cease to amaze me. And at $30-195 in the office catalog, neither does their price.
