Folder redirection in W2K group policy will do this a lot better. Keep the local profiles on each TS, and redirect the deskop, my docs etc to a single place on the network. It doesn't do favorites, but I beleive there's a few workarounds floating about.
If you're going to use DFS for this, you might aswell enable roaming profiles instead, be just as problematic.
Story I heard was any radio device is banned at petrol stations due to the slight chance of interference with the metering systems - ie the pump stops or slows it's meter whilst still flowing petrol at the same rate. I would guess this is more on the older pumps, and a serious amount of power though.
It wasn't the fact that nobody remained who could order the tickets, it was more the fact that nobody remained at the company who would buy the tickets out of romantic reasons rather than business reasons. Once they'd gone the new manager would have a re-evaluation of expenses. As you said though, the years gap in flying leading to some testing of alternative travel didn't help either.
To put it to your rather lengthy analogy, it's a bit like the old supply manager buying in Parkers, when Biros will do just fine.
Probably a little late for this story, but I've built patched bind 9.2.1 rpm's for redhat 7.3 using the patch available at http://carangul.com/patch/. Find it on http://www.denson.org.uk/bind. It's working fine for me, although giving SERVFAIL rather than NXDOMAIN, but should get sendmail working as it should.
A few basic instructions there building patched rpms for other RH distributions aswell, if anyone cares to denote some processing time for other versions.
So what this article is suggesting is compulsary licensing of P2P networks. I assume in this case it also requires licensees to ensure that no material is being shared that is subject to copyright control.
Firstly, I cannot begin to comprehend the effort required to stay on top of the copyrighted material being shared around the network. File hashes can be used for sure, but imaging the resources required for checking and verifying this. Sure, a few automated systems currently exist for music, but when we're talking about w2k3 iso's, DiVX movies etc, these are going to require some serious resources, whether computing or man-power to acheive this. Certainly this will be required to satisfy the RIAA, MPAA et al.
Secondly, assuming they acheive this, then what, in all honesty is the network going to be used for. Sure, there's currently the odd RH iso that get's distributed by bittorrent. With most sharers scared to offer their mp3 collection (ie combination of ripped of their own cd's and downloaded), few will bother weeding out their copyright free music to share. With no sharers, there's no network. Besides, at the moment indepedent music seems served quite happily by services such as mp3.com and others.
The police can't use their speedo to guage your speed, calibrated or not - it won't stand up in court. The only thing in the car they can use whilst moving is a VASCAR device over a known distance - either pre or post measured. Panda cars and police vans will rarely carry these devices, much less calibrated every day (again required in order for the case to stand up in court), hence they're fair game. Don't go too fast though, but I've never had any trouble at 80.
It's not a UK requirement per se, it's a European directive that's been passed into UK law. The limit is 90kph, c. 56mph. Speed limit for lorries on our Motorways is 60mph.
Most truckers hate the system. Not only do they lose concentration from not having to self regulate speed, they are also concerned about the huge queues building up behind them as one lorry overtakes another - previously the overtaking manouvere took only a few hundred metres, now it can take a few miles. The cars stuck behind this queue now have no respect for the lorry drivers, and will spend the rest of their journey increasingly stressed and angry, and not particularly concentrating too hard on the road.
Do you really think this is a safe idea to install in EVERY vehicle?
We do have this sort of system, but not on the plates. We have a license disc here which goes in the front windscreen - this is coloured per month expiry, and to a trained officer can be spotted on a moving car in the opposing direction - can't do this on rear mounted stickers. The other method is many police cars in Gtr London have numberplate recognition linked to the PNC (Police national computer) which will pick up any cars without license (amongst other things)
Unfortunately, with the increasing cost of insurance, and an increasing number of drivers getting banned from totting up 4 minor speed camera catches, there are currently 10% of motorists driving unlicensed and uninsured. There simply aren't the resources available at the moment to do anything about this.
Loading Exchange 2000? First, run dcpromo to turn this box into an Active directory domain controller.
Ergh, you really don't want to do this. If you ever need to completely rebuild a hosed system (eg corrupt RAID 5), it'll take an hour to rebuild the server and reinstall e2k (all setup is in AD, ie replicated on another server), then all you've got is restore time for the db's.
You're only adding more complication if this is running as a DC aswell, considering it MUST keep the same name to restore e2k properly, and so before rebuilding the base win2k, you MUST remove any traces of it being a DC from AD, otherwise AD will throw a fit having a computer with a name of a DC with a new SID that isn't running as a DC. Allowing for replication delay, if you're running multi site, you really don't want your e2k boxes to run as a DC, certainly if your DR timescale is tight.

I've seen designs for things like electrically-assisted power steering that do away with the hydraulic pump etc... that's supposed to save 5% in fuel or so.
Already exist. Used to have a Vauxhall (UK GM brand) Astra that had this. Alternator belt snapped one day; being a diesel hence no HT ignition system the car ran off just the battery just fine for a few miles to a garage, however the steering was really heavy, much heavier than a failed hydraulic system. Wouldn't like to imagine what might happen should someone not be able to control the car like that though.
"...located 30cms from the victim equipment or its wiring harness."
I am wondering: how realistic is a test which assumes that the phone will be 30cm from the equipment?
I think the relevant part here is wiring harness. The signal will get picked up quite nicely by all the wires around the seating position (lights, headphone outlet, steward call button), and if unseperated from say the instrument ground, then this could cause a problem.
The mobile telco's bill depending on the owner of the number, not the number range - hence if you've ported from O2 to T-Mobile say, calls from a T-Mobile friend to your ported 02 number will be on-net. Calls from an O2 subsciber to your ported O2 number will be off-net.
The majority of the landline telco's bill by number ranges. This has an advantage if you ported an O2 number out; O2 tend to charge third party telcos less for terminating the calls on their network, at the weekends it's 2p to call an O2 number, about 15p to call an Orange number. Hence calling an Orange user who's ported an O2 number out will cost less than calling an Orange user with an Orange number. Originating telco foots the bill:) AFAIK, BT bill by number range.
£4.60 to park just outside the charging zone? Let us know where it is then - this is the sort of rate for about 10 miles out of London, and a 40 minute tube ride to the centre.
Car Parks just outside the charging zone have been, and AFAIK, still are, charging about £20 a day for parking.
Not any old processor - only some of the ARM processors. It won't run on your Athlon.
The reason it fits in 4Mb is twofold:
1. It is written mainly in assembly. [1]
2. It's just the core OS and a few applications - you can fit a usable Linux on a floppy, but you won't expect to browse the web, read email and whatever else on it.
Oh, and it doesn't boot in 2 seconds - Risc OS 2 booted in 2 seconds, but that was only 512K ROM.
[1] Who needs OSS for the source when dissambly would get you the code, pretty much as the original developer wrote it, just without the comments or friendly pointer names.
Revising our asylum and immigration laws and investing in the actual infrastructure of the welfare system would solve the problems you mention. How many illegal immigrants are deported each month and how would an id card change the powers that the authorities have in such matters? If half the money proposed for identity cards was spent on modifying our existing system, there wouldn't be a problem
But that's half of the problem - we can't modify our existing laws as they HAVE to adhere to various Human Rights treaties we have signed up to with the UN and Europe. What we can do is the same as the other Euro countries - asylum seekers are detained in a secure detention centre, their case is heard quickly, and if failed, they are removed quickly. As here, they then have a right to appeal, but only if they stay in the detention centre - at this point the majority playing the asylum card to gain entry to the country give up. (and try for the UK...)
At the moment the situation we have is the illegal immigrants enter the country, usually after paying a courier a few thousand for both travel and a backing story, and when/if caught then claim hardship in their originating country using this and hence asylum. They then repeat the story given to them by the courier, get to stay in real accomodation paid for out of benifits, get income support, and usually dissapear. Even those that don't can stay until they come out the other side of the appeal process, which they are perfectly entitled to, as per the Human Rights treaties. There is such a backlog this usually takes about 5 years, and they then dissapear before being removed.
This doesn't even cover those which should be deported back to their originating country, but the Home Office has decided not to send them back (Zimbabwe is a current example)
You can't be made to change to the photo licence but as soon as you change address, or get points on your licence, you will be required to get a photo licence. This basically is a phased in policy to stop the DVLA from being swamped back in 1998 when it became the law.
Currently you don't need to change to a Photo ID just for getting points, only change of address and lost/stolen replacements that'll require changing. With everyone due to have atleast 3 points by the end of this year, it'll swamp the DVLA as they'll have to end up changing nearly everyone.
Just a couple of additions to do with the processor and early ARM processors. It was originally called the Acorn Risc Machine, however in 1990 it was spun off into a seperate company known as Advanced Risc Machines, owned 40% by VLSI, 40% by Apple, and 20% by Acorn. Apple then went on to use this processor in the Newton.
What they did in producing the processor was incredible, they had a working RISC processor, running at the time very quick, and with minimal man-hours of developemend, it was something like 10 man years, unheard of at the time for a new processor. Some of the features like a full 32bit shift being available without using another clock cycle have yet to be surpassed. It was true RISC, at a time when other RISC chips had something like 60-80 instructions, this made do with just 44 - there wasn't even any instruction for divide, and the concept of subroutines and return was done purely in programming as opposed to calling functions of the processor.
As far as the OS, the version on release was the very undeveloped Arthur, and RISC OS was released late 1988 as it's much better replacement. At the time, there was full (cooperative however) multitasking Windowing system, with 256 colours, and was much better than anything else on the market.
A group of extreme hackers based in a northern section of Finland have shown this processor able to run at 5907Mhz using a never before tried method of liquid helium cooling.

I'll wait till they've got a TLD till I consider them really independent.
