  1. upgrade to ms sql server on Sharing MS-Access Databases, Efficiently? · · Score: 1

    iirc, microsoft sql server will support and/or import access databases, so you can start small and grow as needed. And as others have posted, you can still use the access front ends. but in any event, you _need_ a real rdbms.

  2. yahoo bookmarks on Most Usable Bookmark Managers? · · Score: 4, Informative

    yahoo has an online bookmark "manager" (for lack of a better term). Via my.yahoo.com (and a yahoo id) you can customize the the layout and content. Add the "my bookmarks" panel and then import (upload) your bookmarks to there. It supports netscape (and thus mozilla/phoenix), ie win32 and ie for macs.

    I upload my bookmarks every so often manually, although I'm sure with some hacking one can make a script to automate the procedure (maybe someone already has). If you don't "yahoo", I'm sure there are other free online services that have an equivilent.

  3. Re:A mixed blessing. on BSD Journaled File System Ready For Testing · · Score: 1

    so you basically what you are saying is that having a choice is a "bad thing". and in other completely unrelated news,the average iq of slashdot posters takes yet another nose dive.

  4. Re:Plain economics on Indian State Switches to Linux · · Score: 1

    quote: Linux had journaling filesystems before NT, too uhhh, no. nt has had a journalling filesystem since ntfs. the first journaling fs to be accepted into linus's kernel was reiser. I know when this happened, I was using windows 2000. It was also the primary reason I gave linux a whirl. overall, I'd say that unix systems are more constistant in how they are administrated. (shell scripts and vi can do most of what needs doing.) Windows systems, otoh, require all sorts of specialty tools, with very little consistancy in their interfaces, whether they be graphical or command line. Check out a Windows resource kit if you aren't sure what I mean. And, while on about resource kits, one should also know that they contain shitloads of documentation. All of which (and more) is available on microsoft's site. that said, I'd rather do *nix adminning any day.

  5. Re:Just disable it on Disabling Flash in the Browser? · · Score: 2

    the only thing in my 'helper applications' is 'text/html'.

    linux mozilla, 1.01, 1.1, 1.2b (or not too be?)
