ROFL... I'd love to see you and a thousand of your friends try to take on just one infantry company. You'll outnumber them about 8 to 1, and won't stand a chance. Unless of course the right to bear arms now includes mortars, assault rifles, grenades, and belt-fed 7.62MM machine guns mounted on tripods...
"Bill, I think, (has) touched on it eloquently and well, which is the responsibility we have to be excellent in our products, to be excellent with our customers..."
... and be excellent to each other. My name is Ted Theodore Logan, and this is Bill S. Preston, esq. Party on dudes!
And I've used Western Digital ever since my first computer, a 386 (1993). I've never had one go bad. I've put Western Digital hard drives into every system I've ever built for friends and family (>100) and never had one go bad. I'm still using the 450MB and 520MB HDs in my firewall/router, and log every denied packet and every confirmed connection to the 520. It's a cable modem, so I get about 2-10 per second. Every bit of data on the drive is rewritten about every 2 weeks. Western Digital rocks, and one failure does not make a bad hard drive. 8 years of continuous usage and one of sitting in a closet without a failure does make a good hard drive.
Give me a break. They put a site up on the internet. If the wanted to decide how many hits the site got, it's very easy to choke it back to a certain level. If they didn't take steps to prevent stuff like this, then I have as much sympathy for them as I do for my friends who bitch about their 800 dollar cell phone bills.
Thanks for the dream, pal, but the phone system is just a little bit different than the entire IT industry. As a matter of fact, computers are what made the automation of the telecom industry possible. Going by this burnout's metaphor, we would need an entirely new technology to take care of the automation of computers. And then what's going to automate that?
Please, pal, think before you speak. We do the best we can to make sure that the things run themselves, but somebody's got to push the button somewhere.
A true geek's greatest asset is his || her willingness to go to any lengths necessassary to be able to be lazy... someday. The fact that we're still working just means we aren't done yet. What this dimwit is saying is exactly what we computer geeks have been trying to do since the Atansoff-Berry Computer.
Move along folks, nothing to see here, just some jackass parroting what we've all known all along like it was his goddamn idea.
Until I read your comment about punching spammers there's no way I would have bought this stuff. Now, I say BRING IT ON! We'll be able to identify spammers by their missing teeth, and if they have any left, knock the rest of 'em down their throats.

I don't eat salad. That's what food eats.
Hate to burst your bubble, but there's only 65536 ports. Double that if you include UDP.

My first :)
I'd like to drill a hole into my head just for sitting through that god-awful movie. Bleh.
Looks fine on my Gentoo-1.4-rc2/Mozilla-1.2.1 box.
Stupid, but rendered properly at least.

No WONDER I can't find Chubby Hubby anymore... corporate bastards.

I don't buy it. If you were so successful, explain THIS.
Ah, but how many of us get paid?
Coke works better when you snort it, n00b.
IAAC (I Am A Coder), and it's about as likely as a blind man picking out your house on a world atlas. And that's only if they use binary computers.
OK, mods, you fucking fags, where the fuck is my karma?
Fuck fuckitty fuck fuck shit shit fuck!
Porn destroys families? Pornstars families maybe.
ROFL! Somebody mod this one up!
No, it's nothing like it at all.
Cut me some slack, man, I just started learning Dvorak a few days ago.
Should have been...
Amen. I can't believe anyone actually in IT could read this infomecial and think he's some kind of credible authority.
Preveiw, preview, preview.
Amen. I can't believe anyone actually in IT could read this infomecial and actually think anyone would think he's some kind of credible authority.

Heeeeeey... I never thought of that.

Not as much as OS/400 people...
