  4. Sounds like time to use a relevant distro on Social Contract Amendment May Bump Sarge To 2005 · · Score: 0
    Which of course can be only Gentoo.

    Hmm I seem to remember some debian people taunting Gentoo a little bit ago about DRobbins story.

    So if you Debian people need a modern distro, Gentoo will be here

    :)

  5. CRM is wrong on Running a Business on Open Source Software? · · Score: 0

    I run a successful small Linux IT consultancy business. My clients tend to be small to medium sized professional services businesses. We have them setup on Linux servers running file, print, web, email, etc servers. Many customers have asked for CRM software. Most ultimately use ACT or Goldmine. This is unfortunate because both these softwares have no Linux based installs. I have looked at many OpenSource alternatives, all fall short, in fact all CRM's fall short. They are designed wrong in my opinion. We have an in-house application that we spent two weeks on that quite frankly is far superior to other projects i have seen, in concept if not in completion. It seems that many CRM's decide to be collaborative Outlook. I believe that most CRM software SHOULD be SALES driven. Meaning that the whole focus of most CRM's is to organize CUSTOMERS or potential customers. Anyway, maybe this is motivation to submit our in-house product (codenamed ConMan) to an OS download site.

  9. They already block ip on Comcast Gunning for NAT Users · · Score: 1

    Since the bastards have taken over their own servers, I can no longer access my ip remotely. This has been cripling- and I will be jumping ship to dsl as soon as it is available in my area. I called them to complain, i was promised they were going to fix the problem. It has now been over a month. Their support sucks, and you get different stories each time you call. In two weeks of time- i was down for ten days. Screw Comcast! In my house as well the modem goes into a computer- a second nic is serving my internal network, and yes I have 15 machines- but only TWO USERS!!! Are they going to try to charge me 15 x $5.00 - i dont think so. Purchasing multiple private ip's is ridiculous and anybody who know anything with a computer isnt going to do it.
