As a DBA I 100% agree. I have had 800MB DB's grow to 1.4T (seemingly overnight) and managers ask me "What's changed?" (You are in PHB syndrome) "Umm... do you remember the change control we did for the last 2 years? Do you see your reflection in the mirror?"
I never liked either of them. uTorrent is Windows only and BitTorrent is somewhat lacking on the Mac.
As much as I think Azureus is cool, I am starting to take a liking to Torrent Flux. Plus... I can run it on my hosting site.
> He's not in search of the 'best' operating system, just looking for the one that can waste CPU cycles while making the user ooh and ahh.
Duh he -IS- a Mac user!
I am a mac user too and quite honestly except for the new "Ohhs and Ahhs" it does not seem to be much different than XP. Granted, now you get some integration of built-in applications but it still PALES in comparison to iLife.
With Vista coming out and the Chinese having to actually purchase software can we expect revenue to grow again?

The Art of SQL
·
· Score: 5, Insightful
As a DBA, if developers would read... oh.... I dunno... just Chapter 1... the basics of SQL... of this book... any SQL book really AND understand "the basics"... My job would be 100 times easier!
I spend much of my time explaining why a 5 page SQL statement "that takes a long time" is NOT A DATABASE PROBLEM! /rant
Memory - REAL EASY actually the same as a PC
CPU - It depends lot of G4 upgrades no G5 upgrades as of yet
HDD - Standard SATA
DVD,HD drives - They use off the shelf models but you will be stuck with certain ones
Video Cards - Ditto
"3D Web - For those that miss the slow old days" "3D Web - Bringing your 5 year old PC to a stop today" "3D Web - We make 100% use of your available bandwidth" "3D Web - With the virtual girls we have, there is not even a reason to bother with a real one" "3D Web - You thought pop-ups were annoying? Wait till you see 3D billboards go by!"
I am actually pretty satisfied with the speed of my 'G' system I would rather they would have focused their efforts on 'reliable speed at a DISTANCE' (without having to erect a GIANT antenna, boosters, etc...)
ALL banks deal with the Fed as it is part of the job of the Fed to supervise, regulate, and rate ALL banks. There is no "members only" choice in the matter. Sheesh!
People have faith in the system because... well... it has been working "pretty good" so far since they transfer about 93 TRILLION dollars a day.

The one you hope for: Someone finds and public announces a problem. You team looks "quick to act" deploys a solution.
That other one: Someone exploits the bug to a degree you and your team never considered and your user community is devastated.
Flat?.... Umm the last 5 years ;)

Oh the answer to your question: - Short sighted - No room for growth 1000's of rows grows to "millions of rows" faster then you would believe. ;)

I can pull Tivo video with my Mac with both Series 1 and Series 2. I also can stream video directly to my Mac. See here
Worthless??? I like saving my password when I am at home.

Agreed I think you will see an up shoot in Linux but I thought Microsoft had a different pricing ladder over there.

A.K.A I want 'G' speeds 5-15 miles out.
Outlook and IE? What.. compared to Mail.app and Safari? This should be rated +5 FUNNY!
WOW! Yesterdays Tivo technology, here today. WOOT!
Apple is trying to slow down and wait for M$. But with all the Vista delays I am not sure how much longer Steve Job should wait.
