You are running Java. If you port your application to another language, you will automatically get a 10% boost in effeciency. Oh, and save money to buy 5 machines instead of 4.
You know what, AIDS is such a preventable disease it is not even funny. If people in Africa want to ignore prevention methods, then they should pay for the treatment. Yet the infection rate increase every year. Sorry, but I would rather have that money spent on other drug research.
How many times have I read that Sun is open sourcing java already? So has it happend? May be we should bet on how many more PR they can generate with the word 'Java' and 'Open Source' together....
Didn't mandrake (the pay version) at some point include dvd playing and mp3. It didn't take off because not many people bought it. Same thing will happen with any other linux distro.
Apps for Android will be few and far between. Most of them will be ports of games from other java mobile platforms that hasn't done well. Apps will be slow. It's like compact.NET... original apps for Android will be crappy in quality. (very few consumer level application written in Java has done well, also think CS101) Social apps for Android will fail because of the lack of users. Android is unable to attract ISV's because a 10Mil prize pool is 10x smaller than a 100Mil prize pool. Android apps will be hard to install.
It's not Verizon that is pushing that metric. It's the outsourced company that is trying to make a buck off Verizon. Not saying that Verizon's own people is better.
Brain interfaced targetting support? better UVA flight manuvers? Attack helicopters needing only one person because the pilot can now control the gun with his mind? If the military thought using xbox 360 controls was innovative... wait until we present these things to the brass!
Our LUG thought about writing a mail client using libmapi to talk to Exchange. Unfortunatly, libmapi is not enough to make it work. The RPC over HTTP piece is still missing. So at this point, an outlook replacement is still not possible.
Unfortunately, the world has been corrupted by Redhat/Ubuntu/Novell's bizarre definition of an "Operating System." The following are applications, not part of the OS:
1. GNU chess 2. Firefox 3. Totem 4. Evolution
Because Redhat/Ubuntu/Novell has distributed these things with its operating system and, with a straight face, asked why the web browser wasn't part of the OS***, people now have a kitchen-sink view of the OS. I think Bill Gates takes a minimalist view to the OS.
*** Many of the Linux/Gnome security issues can be traced back to the integration of Gnome into the operating system.
If the 'application' is bundled, I consider it a part of the OS. You can't tell me that perl is not part of SuSE Linux even though it is not in the kernel source tree. If there's a security venerability in perl on SuSE, it's an OS bug.
Your argument fails. The number of exploits does not depend on the number of computers running it. It depends on the number of flaws that can be exploited.
DICOM is not constrained by any particular database. It specifies a wire protocol for network exchange and file exchange. It is up to the application to determine where and how the data is stored for internal use, there are implementation that uses dBASE IV. The DICOM standard also does not force a representation. It even says you can use JPEG, jpeg2000, motion jpeg, wave files, pdf, etc. The DICOM standard is designed from the ground up to be object oriented, hierarchical and expandable. There have been several updates to it since 1993, the last one in 2007.
It's impossible to store in a structured manner health information because it's so complex and individualized. Think about how to store the following. 1) "My arm hurts right here!" "Show me?" "Here!" "Wait, it's here now" "No no, it's here now" 2) "It itches sometimes" "when?, where?, duration? during aligment of planets!?" 3) "You need to take xyz, twice a day for two weeks. Come back in 3 month, and let's do another check up."
If anyone wants to know how complex it is, try reading the DICOM standard which is just for medical *image* storage and exchange. It's about 3500 pages. The code for medical billing, which the article mentions, is already the size of a dictionary. And all it contains is entries for a simple code and a one or two sentence description.
Realistically, the best approach may be PDF's and full text search. Anything else is just not going to capture the full extent of the medical history.
For me, it's the perceived (and probably real) feeling of responsiveness. You don't get a machine that seems to hang for a second or two while something loads.
What a way to contradict yourself! WHS is not 'enterprise class'. You get what you pay for so don't complain. If you want 'enterprise class' software from Microsoft, you should use the normal Windows Server edition instead of a home edition. This is no different from Linux's if it breaks you get to keep the peices. Unless you pay lots of $$$$.
The next version of Red Hat Linux will... - No longer come with any entertaiment software. - Have nice icons and background that cost extra, and - Be delayed from original release date because... - there will be a major restructuring, while - all the programmers go on strike.
OpenOffice is pretty slow compared to Microsoft Office, and VNC is slower than Remote Desktop. That's going to result in less than acceptable performance. If they hosted it on Windows just for the RDP performance boost, this idea may work better. Unfortunaly, licensing cost will eat them alive.

Yeah. Apple even tells you how it's done. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106594 And wireless obviously works everytime.
I can't use dual screen on my laptop with it. Why can't both screen have different resolutions? OS X can. XP can. Vista can. Ubuntu can't.
The attack probably targeted phpBB2. Get the latest phpBB version which at this moment is 3.0.0.
I'll make some predictions here...

None of that hardware matters if the drivers suck. Please hire some good driver developers.

Hum... my Fedora Core 8, Ubuntu 7.10 all 'call home' to get updates automatically on install. Your argument fails.

Since the craft is coming down fairly fast, isn't the impact of landing on water or land about the same?
