Here is what most people mean by archiving. On notes (and now exchange) there's a server side policy/program that runs and moves mail that meets a defined criteria (say.. mail that is over 6 months old) and copies them to a new mail file. The user's can then access their archive from inside the client or via the web by clicking on a link or something and it takes them right to it.
It's really nice from a system administration perspective as it keeps mail file sizes down (increasing performance) on your main servers and you can use a series of low cost/lots of disk space servers as archiving servers as most people will only go into their archive once or twice a year so the load is very low.
The archiving feature alone really fixes a gap in Exchange server. Say what you will, but it's ridiculous that it doesn't have any archiving abilities (and no, localto workstation archiving doesn't count) that even remotely compare to notes.
Really? You know, a reason most people I know drive older cars is because you don't have to worry about car payments and premium insurance. Not saying I couldn't afford it, but it's nice not having to worry about it.
Another (fairly large) reason I, personally, a drive 1986 nissan pickup 4x4 (just getting broken in at 227,000 miles) is because it still gets OK gas mileage,it was all of $1500, and I can fix most anything on it myself. Good luck doing that on a new foreign or domestic car. It's alos become evident - to me at least- that picking up a 80s or 90s foreign car or truck for a few thousand in decent shape and spending a few hundred bucks to fix it every year is a helluva lot cheaper than blowing a ton of money on car payments & insurance.
Oh yeah all these 'ancient' cars still get comparable gas mileage to new vehicles. My Nissan gets around 20 mpg in the city... all of 1mpg less than the 2009 ford ranger (http://www.fordvehicles.com/trucks/ranger/).
*Wah* *Wah* This public domain government book you distributed doesn't come with a copy machine! THIS IS A SLAP IN THE FACE!!111 It should be able to replicate itself easily!!!1111eleventyone
Actually they have overturned his actions 3 times over the past 7 years with regards to Gitmo, each time they basically kept saying fix this and tried to give the executive and legislative branches time to reconcile what they were doing with the constitution. When they kept failing they issued this ruling.
The problem you have is that had they NOT given the other two branches time, abundant time, to attempt a political solution to all this people would have accused them of being 'activist judges'. There is also the general feeling amongst most judges to grant more leeway to the executive branch during times of war. The last thing you want to have happen as a SC judge is to issue a ruling and then have the executive branch ignore it. Say, for example, in 2002 they would've said "No gitmo, put them in federal prisons, blah blah." It's highly possible, even probably, the bush administration would've simply ignored the ruling and probably had popular support for doing so, basically gutting the SC's power.
With all that said -- look at what they have done, yeah it has taken 7 years but now, finally, they have issued a decision that allows the detainees their full rights under the law and it's a decision that the bush administration has agreed to abide by. I see what you're saying - you think 7 years is too long. Maybe it is. But it's alot better than never. Did it take too long? Probably. The judges went the low-risk way of doing things.
I guess my point in all this was people like to point at Gitmo and so forth and be like "OMG US IS TEH SUXXOR" but the fact remainds if their government was confronted with a similar situation it's highly likely they would ot he same. Or worse.
I maintain in 2-3 years Gitmo will be abolished. The SC isn't stupid, they are waiting for their orders to be enforceable (i.e. banning gitmo, forcing trials in US courts) before issuing them. A few more years of US citizens tired of it, executive branch powerless and they will overturn everything and force them to go to US courts.
yes, it sucks, but it's how it works here. The SC has very very very little real power (i.e. it isn't the CiC of american military forces when it comes down to it) and has to really be careful when it overturns a branch of government or totally usurps popular opinion. Someone super famous (yeah, I don't remember who) once said the most important part about being a supreme court justice wasn't issue the correct opinion but always issuing an enforceable opinion.
The tiem limit for holding a US citizen remains 48 hours (or 72 I think in certain special circumstances). The instances you refer to are non-us Citizens.
I, obviously, do not condone the actions of things like guantanomo bay or abu whatever-the-fuck. With that said, isolate incidents are isolated incident (abu ghraib being a really good example, yeah a ton fo people fucked up, but it's not a policy of the united states to do the things that were do at abu ghraib). The fact is, it reminds against the law to withold someone without charges for more than 48 hours if they are a citizen.
IN the UK they can detain you for 42 days.. if you are a citizen.. with no charges. I find the implications disturbing.
Disclaimer: I have lived a year in the UK, (specifically, Lancaster, England) and have nothing against the people...
But remember, despite people bitching about the US' policies, we still have among the world's most stringent policies regarding the rights of the accused. I was always shocked by most UK citizens attitudes regarding free speech and the right of the accused. While they, obviously, abhorred the idea of someone being put to the death they saw nothing wrong with imprisoning someone without charges for 30 days.
At any rate, I'm sorry this happened =/. I had hoped for better from our friends across the pond.
Well, it sound slike their IT people just didn't get how Exchange archiving works. Which, granted, is pretty ass backward from Notes.
In Notes, you create a archiving policy. Say, "all messages older than 6 months." You then toss these emails to a designated server/mailfile and the users can access them all peachy-key, although typically you set the ACLs on the mailfiles to not allow any deleting.
In exchange, it works quite differently (with PST files being saved to a network drive of some sort) and it sounds like their IT people just had no idea how to implement it.
I know incidental, but I use 8, 8 Administrator, & 8 designer simultaneously with multiple DBs open on a machine with 1 Gigabyte of ram.
(I won't disagree, in general shit is bloated nowadays, but 2GB seems a bit ridiculous).
And, um, why would you go 6.5 --> 8 just for "requirements of core programs." make more sense to go to 7.0.3 as it won't be EOL'd for 4 years and wait to migrate to 8 later.
6.5 --> 7 migration is easy peasy. 6.5 --> 8 is a bit harder.
I mean, honestly, is it just me or are all these "exotic" data centers just a way to boost your CIOs ego at gatherings? Is it really necessary to have military security? Do your competitors care that much? Furthermore, would they be willing to risk criminal charges to try and steal a few thousand hard drives full of potentially useless data?
Basements with backup power, secured doors, & a good fire system in my opinion. Then again, I'm not a CIO. Once I become one though, well, I imagine MY data center will have a golf course. And blackjack. And possibly hookers.
To be fair China's "official" military budget is horseshit. The military owns, in whole or part, a huge portion of the Chinese economy and derives allot of its income from profits from those businesses.
Is it $529 billion? No. But it's a helluva lot more than $50 billion.
That wasn't just the USSR's idea. The United States also had a functional ABM system operating on the same principle - using Nike Zues (or Nike X) rockets with a few kiloton warhead strapped on top. I don't believe it got deployed anywhere but Guam however.
The USSR's system was called Galosh, or A35. The missile was in operational use around Moscow from 1971 on. It has since been replaced, although by what I don't know. I think the Gorgon but I could be wrong. The system was only used to protect Moscow as per the terms of the 1972 ABM treaty.
No doubt! My vista experience is pretty limited (1 friend of my wife's and 20 vista test PCs here in the lab) but it's been universally negative. Every single graphics drivers isn't really ready for Vista, the UI changes - while pretty - make it far harder to use, and the headaches between the different versions (Oh, you have home premium - can't RDP to this machine!) are, well, headaches.
Not a fan of Vista. I'll adopt it when, or if, Xp ever goes EoL.
Just a quick note, if you are ever in the Omaha, Nebraska area definitely stop by Henry Doorly Zoo. It's probably the nation's second best zoo behind San Diego's, and the shark tunnel is fantastic. As are the penguins, and the desert dome, and indoor jungle, and...
A few winters ago we went to the Zoo and the place was deserted. Was able to just lay down in the Shark Tunnel and watch the sharks swim overhead for about a half hour with no one coming down. Was fantastic.
At any rate, also -- as far as the article goes -- I wish someone would have some more explanation for how this works. Kindof freaky.
Did you RTFA? The courts decision wasn't about IF asking these questions violated the fair housing act, it was if the safe harbor exemption could be applied. The court ruled it couldn't, since it asked some very specific questions with regards to sex (protected) and sexual orientation.

Because using the web on a cell phone is SO EASY compared to a built in messaging/calendaring application.
Mailbox journaling is not archiving.

Grow up.
Anyone who plays game X is insane because all you do is hit buttons Y all night long!
Just don't play it if you don't like it.
Sovereign immunity also applies to the states by the way when facing lawsuits.
That is such a good idea it'll never get implemented. Yowser though, that's a fantastic idea.

7 is six with minor enhancements and bugfixes, most enhancements are server side. In reality 8 server +7 client is the way to go imo.

Buy or use a decent filter? Use RBLs as a scoring mechanism?
RBLs are horribly broke & you should never use them as a sole method of determining if an email is spam.

Worst troll ever!
Also, you missed the point. It's so viruses and/or spyware can't prevent the machine from getting windows updates.
Yeah, and SMS (even with the new advanced client) still sucks up bandwidth like no other despite BITS. OH well :)
