Our employee solution was to take the "You don't pay me when I'm off the clock" idea. Frequent runs to the local bar for some pitchers & pool.
It may not have done much it increase productivity (from a managment standpoint; as creatives it helped tons!), but we were willing to stay almost until dawn once a week (& until after 8 most other nights) and turnover in the creative dept decreased.
Seeing this, we even managed to get raises (by doing what would get you fired normally!)
Never underestimate the power of beer! It wasn't free, but who cares.
Hey, if he's making copies for his friends, where is the foul. No money changed hands. The 'company' only lost a customer who was only 1/2 way interested in the product to begin with. No matter how many 1/2 customers 'rip' them off, they won't make 1 more sale.
If something is put out there for everyone, then why shouldn't there be an archive system of somekind. All it seems to look like is a simple, historical structure of what has gone on.
Complaining would be like Disney complaining about "Steamboat Mickey" being played again & again. Unlike them (Disney) you can't show any loss of revenue from a quick replay....

Just cause its 'now' dead doesn't mean anything. Be is gonna be here for a long time (even if only with lonely users, huddled together in caves.)
It isn't like other OS's haven't survived their demise/abandonment. Be is an excellent OS. In other words, I'll give up my BeBox when 'its pryed from my cold dead hands'(tm).

Seems to be a charged subject.
-If its got wheels or tits, is all just trouble (except below); ignore both, play w/the TRS-80 instead
-Get a 486 & do it now!

-Exchange students are worth it; work on your Japanese and/or Finnish
So does this mean that they'll remove the tombstone to Erdrick in Final Fantasy?

I guess a lesser version is Gigabyte's 'Mianboard DMI tool'...
Kinda like the misnamed History Channel. It is actually the WWII Channel as that is the only stuff they show.
I thought that the big H stood for 'the Hitler channel'?
dot.commed twice in one year. Hows that for a start?
