  7. Re:if they are using ESRI products on Advertising Hits Arizona County Government Website · · Score: 1

    However the time the clerks save in searching through old documents dramatically makes up for that expense. Looking up an old deed at any local courthouse it a true PITA..... Being able to find it with the click of a button is a true time saver.

  8. Re:Two more words: "IE only" on Advertising Hits Arizona County Government Website · · Score: 2, Interesting

    And requires AutoDesk Mapguide. Again..... Winblows only. There are a lot of great GIS sites out that dont require Mapguide. Why don't government agencies use them?

  11. Re:Proof open source works on NetStumbler v0.4 Released · · Score: 1

    You are right! Netstumbler sucks compared to AieSnort! Stumbler wont even use my old Linksys Prism2 card. Wardriving with Airsnort is a lot more productive.

  12. Re:Deleting bookmarks on Mozilla 1.7 to Become New Long-Lived Branch · · Score: 3, Informative

    I have seen this happen to a couple of clients machines I have worked on. I traced it down to their anti-virus scanner blowing out prefs.js. By excluding prefs.js from any virus scan activity they have not had the problem since.

  17. Re:Could Linus sue SCO execs directly? on SCO Letter to Fortune 1500 Now Online · · Score: 1

    Execs have been successfully sued for bleeding a company dry (e.g., granting themselves huge bonuses while the company is clearly going bankrupt). Such conduct is illegal, though hard to prove except when it is egregiously obvious.

    See Enron!
