I'd rather have the HB-1 workers in america, spending their money, than having the jobs outsourced and the US not receive ANY benefit.
I mean, come one, ALL of the visas this year went in under 6 hours! There has to be some serious demand that isn't getting met for that kind of response.
same parts, just different plastics on *most* models.
I know this because I've got a dell tattoo CD that will flash the bios of a mobo to either say "Inspiron" or "Latitude" depending on what you pick when you boot off the CD.
It absolutely killed me to spend the extra money for "Business-ready" Latitudes that I KNEW had the exact same parts as the inspiron models in them.
I've found that this is a pain-in-the ass when migrating from 1.0 to 2.0. It seems like they changed the folder structure now, so it's no longer "New TB folder" = "New folder on disk". (either that or I don't know what I'm doing with 2.0)
It still kills me that it can import from outlook / mozilla suite, but it can't do something simple like import from an older version or a flat mbox file.
It's due to OLE objects not working right in thunderbird. I'm not sure if Outlook captures them and re-encodes them as an attachment or what, but I feel your pain!!!
So why in the dickens can't someone write a 16-bit wrapper so I can get some of this "32-bit software with a 16-bit installer" to install on Server 2003 x64?

If you use ActiveX data objects, then you are SOL. It refuses to import the saved vb6 project, and leaves you to redesign your forms and then line your business logic back up to the newly created form.
We're migrating from VBA --> VB.NET and it's been an absolute nightmare.
COBOL and RPG are both heavily used by furniture plants here in Mississippi. IBM did one hellva sales job 20 years ago. We still run our legacy billing system off an original IBM designed cobol application...we've migrated it to Dexterity/VB/VBA, but guess what..it scales nowhere near as well as the COBOL application.
As for colleges, our local community college has a two year program in C++/VB/COBOL/RPG that fits the needs of our local employers pretty well.
No no no, these are indian tech support we're talking about here. You know they can't say ANYTHING without spitting out an entire paragraph response to the simplest question like "What is your name?"
What I want is multi-user home machines. You know, like unix/linux have had for 30 years?
It just kills me that me and my wife can't share a dual core, 2GB ram machine that's running XP and remote desktop...the technology is there...it's just not enabled!!!!
For businesses, it doesn't matter. You don't *need* to run Aero, so your current hardware should be sufficient to run vista w/o all of the pretty stuff...provided, of course, that you bought your hardware within the last 3-5 years.

sounds delicious!!
Tell me again what about that is, in any way, simple.
Online chat doesn't work for hardware defects. They'll tell you to call support.
(or at least that's the case in the two times I've tried it)
It's 29.9 for me, and my score is around 750. I use it exclusively for the 2% discount that it gives (I resell tons of dell hardware)

remember when companies would just have an FTP site (sorted by product model) that you could get in and download the drivers you needed?
Progress, I tell ya, progress.
Nice! Thanks!
You misunderstand. The software is 32-bit and works fine on a 64-bit machine. The installer *only* is 16-bit because they are two lazy to recode it.
So why in the dickens can't someone write a 16-bit wrapper so I can get some of this "32-bit software with a 16-bit installer" to install on Server 2003 x64?

Well, no but at least you're still guaranteed to get screwed.

So, does forwarding these spams to enforcement@sec.gov do any good at all?
He must be an IBM consultant, he knows the dark secret!
I have a degree from 1999 from Itawamba Community College in Tupelo Mississippi hanging on my wall. Curriculum included COBOL, RPG, C++, and VB.
It's still being taught today. It goes well with our local furniture plants who run tons of apps on AS/400 systems.

I've got a couple of fixtures that I've put CFLs in, rated for 5 years and I've gotten *maybe* 8 months out of any bulb.
When they go out, is it normal for the bulbs to brown a bit at the bottom?
