Well, England didn't start colonizing the New World until at least 300 years after your examples, so I fail to see their relevance. Much of what people think of as an English accent is due to what types of accents the BBC decided to standardize on during it's early years.
Yes, but with a blade server or a bunch of racked servers and a SAN you can replicate alot of the functionality. I know, I did it. We swapped out hardware by just pointing the LUNS and the new stuff and rolled back to snapshots when we had bad updates. VMware does make it much more accessible and cuts the hardware cost, or moves it to an up front cost, depending on your perspective.
Crime will really drop fast if we have locked up slaves doing the work that our lower class would love to be paid to do. Hmmm... Let's move one part of the labor force (criminals) into a different part of the labor force, leaving a vacuum in the previous area and assume it will not be filled.
At $15/hour you'll be a hundredaire in to time. I'm sure the guys you work are are getting exactly what they are paying for, either because you are not putting out full effort, or you are not capable of better effort.
I'm curious if these are windows servers or linux? I think this one server for each app is a windows admin mindset that seems to have carried over to linux to some extent. Windows apps are terrible for stomping all over each other and assuming they are the only thing going on.
everything you describe rings alarm bells of an incompetent admin. Welcome to the world of Windows Admins, these are the guys dragging down salaries for the truly competent.
To be fair, you could already do alot of this stuff with a SAN (virtualized storage). Snapshot, migrate, resize disk on the fly. All of this is very simple if you are booting from a SAN. Virtualizing the OS gives you more efficient use of your hardware if you are running low resource servers, sandboxing, and a base hardware layer that simplifies upgrades and deployments. If you are running a bunch of Databases or time sensitive equipment you might be better off with a physical hardware layer and just virtualized storage.
Even the command line tools are degraded. No rsync or sftp, you have to use scp for file transfers. Unfortunately, as I recently found out, VMware has throttled the scp transfers to (I guess) encourage people to buy their other products instead of using the free one. In hindsight that must be why they killed the VMware Server offering that would run on top of WIndows or Linux. I could throw that on a headless linux machine and get excellent performance while retaining an extended underlying toolset.
Maybe there is a market for a business class of device that can be repaired. I think it's afew years off, but I just heard the other day a news report saying how all the hardware specs are boring and don't really mean anything. It's the software that matters on new phones. Commodization can't be too far off and then it gets down to durability and fix-ability.
Why are young people so anxious to jump into a closed ecosystem like Blackberry chat, or facebook messaging. Gmail is a perfectly fine implementation of an open standard that allows you to freely communicate across many platforms. It is not your best interest to let yourself be corralled into a closed communication system. We solved these problems years ago, but young people want to go back to AOL keywords.
Yes, i said trained. Potty-trained, trained in manners, trained to behave, trained to learn. These are all valid areas of training and I bet you have benefited from them. You think your whole life was trial and error? Someone modeled that behavior for you, and yes that is a form of training. Pass it on. Teach a young person to be curious and figure things out.
Open a mind, yours included. (I know your type...)
So you just climbed out of the womb knowing everything? Your parents and teachers didn't impart any knowledge to you? You never read a book to learn something, guess who wrote that book. This attitude is one of the problems. You sound like Craig T. Nelson, "I've been on food stamps and welfare, nobody ever helped me."
Everybody has been trained by someone older and more experienced. This is how a society moves forward. If we stick to what we know and hoard our knowledge we stop learning and our accomplishments die with us. Have some kids and train some young people. It's a rewarding experience to be a mentor.

Bigotry is obstinate or INTOLERANT devotion to one's own opinions and prejudices, so yeah it's bigoted.

Trial and error with gunpowder is dangerous and will probably be noticeable due to the noise and smoke. Probably due to the ER visit.
If I just need a one-shot wonder I can make a zip gun in ten minutes.

No, but it sounds like I should try it out. Thanks.
This is a good point, openstack does not appear to be something you can setup and plop redhat or windows onto, like vmware or openbox.
Xen is already on the enterprsie radar, http://www.citrix.com/products/xenserver/features/editions.html.

You would need a third extra machine because there is no way to get to the console of a running VM from the VMware host console.

zypper is every bit as good as apt, but it did take awhile to get there.
Why use a hub when arp poisoning is so much easier.

Looks like Google has got you covered

Topic is training, but I"m clearly making you uncomfortable.
