    Why does your company not import their CA cert into your machines?

    That way no one gets the error and they can self sign all they like.

    I think all that stuff is just as much a problem with SAP. Lots of costs because it did not do X on launch day.

    Not saying you're wrong, just saying it is not unique to building in house.

    Go look at newegg.

    Take backups, test them. An untested backup is not a backup.

    Where would you find an SAP system that cheap?
    There is no way one could be rolled out in 4 months.

    I have never seen one that did not go over budget and past schedule, nor did what they wanted on launch day. I have not seen that many, but enough to guess that is the common outcome.

    So SAP support is cheap or free?

    To make these claims you must be an SAP integrator/sales person.

    Maybe they exist, but have you ever seen a company that actually could deploy or upgrade SAP faster than building something in house?

    I work in a pretty small place, end run around me would get you nowhere fast. Different strokes, but carring around your card is not something I am going to do. Either you want to sell me something or not, your choice.

    Marginally? Have you ever seen how they repair it?
    I have driven both as well. The grades are gentler, the roads are banked in places, etc. The design is for much higher speeds.

    That car passed when it was built not on the day it was driven. Meaning it may well have failed for age related reasons, like rust in the unibody. I have seen german inspectors hit the bottom of a car with a ballpeen hammer to look for weak spots.

    They actually enforce that right lane driving, we don't. Nor do we have decent driver testing or training.

    I have. The roads are simply not well enough maintained nor were they made to handle that. Just because a state is flat, boring and you want to get out of it quickly does not mean it is safe to drive on roads at those speeds.

    The car reeked of gas, that meant it had a leek.

    I have no trouble condemning it, they could have closed the roads or used a track. Kind of like how a sky diver does not jump over my house.

    We don't even have enough training of drivers at low speed.

    That car was not designed to have more fuel tanks, nor are those roads designed for those speeds. The autobahn is not the US interstate.

    American drivers are not good for that speed either. Go ask a german about their drivers education vs ours. Ask them about their testing.

    If you take your road test in an automatic you get a restricted license. Can you imagine how americans would react to that?

    Those roads are built for that and they have very comprehensive vehicle inspections. His modified car would likely not have passed. I do not believe they allow adding fuel tanks like this. They also ban kit cars.
