    I got duals screens and it runs fine.

  3. Re:Lunchen budeget for CIOs. on Linux Feels Growing Pains · · Score: 1

    NYSE has more money following through it one day than google has in whole year. 5 minute outage caused tens of millions of transactions not to go through. Kind of funny when IBM touted it as 100% guaranteed uptime. On the other hand NASDAQ runs on microsoft architecture and has yet to go down. The fact is now being sold to every CIO in america by the Microsoft's sales team.

  4. It works both ways on Retail Fraud on the Rise · · Score: 1

    All the major stores will lie to sell extended warranties. Had one guy said that i could use the warranty as a free trade up, which was a complete lie. They always hit you up right at the check out line in order to rush you and so you don't read the actual agreement. I made it a point not to shop at bestbuy unless its too purchase newly released dvds which they usually sell at a loss or if they make a price mistake.

  5. Re:$600 on Forget about Wi-Fi VoIP, Vonage going WiMax · · Score: 1

    You over sell 1 to 10 when it comes to phone capacity. So you can support 480 customers with that line.

    Dammit their goes my dream of working at a strip club so i can have sex with the dancers after hours. Have to tell them to keep their clothes on so we don't get fired.

  7. Nothing to fear on The 'DOS Ain't Done 'til Lotus Won't Run' Myth · · Score: 1
    How can this be? Does that mean my whole life as a MS-bashing Slashdotter is nothing but... nothing?!?

    Don't worry you can continue bashing microsoft and you can even use the phrase "Dos ain't done till lotus won't run" in a week or so to get +5 moderation.

  8. Re:Seriously... on Windows Vista & IE7 Beta 1 Released · · Score: 1
    It prompts the user on the first page they access if they want to turn on the phishing filter or not.

    What kills me about IE7 is that they put the address bar along with back and refresh button above the fricking menu bar. Its driving me up the wall that I can't move it(or can't figure out how to move it) to below the menu bar. ARG!!!!

    SP2 of xp no longer autoconnects you to strongest unsecured network.

  12. Re:Quality, not Quantity on Google's Share of Searches Falling? Or Increasing? · · Score: 1

    Umm you must not do much marketing on the internet. Overture(MSN and Yahoo) has higher conversion ratio than adwords but on the other hand adwords is much cheaper. Prices are set by the people who buy the ads since its based on a bid type system. Adwords does factor in how many times people click on your ad which helps shift through all the junk ads people post but it still can't compare that most of my business comes from overture for the exact keywords.

  13. Re:Typical governmental BS on One Step Away from Changing Daylight Savings Time · · Score: 1

    Your arguement would make sense if all the states followed DST but they don't, Hawaii and Alaska are on standard time.

  14. What!!! on One Step Away from Changing Daylight Savings Time · · Score: 1
    The purpose of DST is not to remind you when to check your batteries. If it works for that too, fine; but that is something extra, not the reason for DST. Support or oppose the DST change for REAL reasons.

    All execs that i know of have no competes. Pepsi can't simply go farm execs out of coke. We are talking about regular employees, we are talking about executives.

    You need to get out florida. California law defines that things you do on your own time is yours no matter what contract you sign. Non competes are only valid for execs but not normal people

    I want to know how firefox devs plan to address security concerns with the browsers. It seems as firefox gets more popular, the number of exploits keeps rising.

  20. Re:It's about time on Firefox Greasemonkey Extension Security Problem · · Score: 1
    IIS 5.0 is 5 years old and no longer comes with on any OS microsoft sells today. Its also unsupported much like Apache 1.3.x which has higher threat exploits unpatched.

    IIS6 exploits are with the admin tools which aren't installed by default and webdav which is another addon and the last exploit that shows cookie values is only seen when you turn on remote debugging, compare that apache's 2.0 buffer overflows in the SSL code. Nice try at FUD, just face the facts IIS is more secure than Apache.

  21. Re:It's about time on Firefox Greasemonkey Extension Security Problem · · Score: 4, Informative
    Umm IIS6 has less exploits and no unpatched vunerabilities compared to Apache 2.0.x which still has unpatched vunerabilities.

    IIS 6 Exploits
    Apache 2.0x.

    Please do some basic research before making comments on security.

  22. Mod parent down on Longhorn to Require Monitor-Based DRM · · Score: 1
    I think the chances of the Monitors pref pane ever having a "security" tab are nil. Go sell your FUD elsewhere.


    Then apple will never play movies on HD optical media, both bluray and HDCD WILL require secured video out. So apple not implementing a secure video out is unrealistic, take you fanboyism elsewhere.

    I've had it freak out on reading my card, i highly doubt it was an OS issue since the OSs are pretty much stripped of everything. It was probably the driver for magnetic card reader.
