  1. Installing it on my third server on Red Hat Linux 9 Release And Interview · · Score: 2, Informative

    I am upgrading my servers to 9.0 since last week. So far it has been very smooth. On RH 8.0 I had problems with dual CPU Compaq Proliants 3000. Seemed like during the install the RH 8.0 disabled the 2nd CPU on these particular servers. RH 9.0 does seem to have aany problems.

    I just use the core OS files, and then compile everything from source code. So for me there is not much incentive to go form 8.0 to 9.0. I moved just because of the Compaq Proliant issues.

  4. merely adding more meta data on Geocoding All Content · · Score: 1

    I think this is just adding more meta data to content, and I am sure many applications do that. I think in the Word Doc the information about the printer is added, might as well add the geographical information.

  20. Re:pre-release advertisement and hype on Apple to Announce new Mac OS X version in June · · Score: 1

    Most of my knowledge usually comes from Scott Adam's (writer of Dilbert) books.
    In his book titled "THE DILBERT FUTURE", prediction #43 says:
    "In the future, the science of advertising will improve to the point where buying what you see in an advertisement is no longer optional"
    Please read the book for details, on why advertisement will be important in the future.
