If students are caught performing any scans against university computers then it would prompt: "Disabling their student account and referring them to the Student Dean of Corrections."
It's a bit long, but as long as I get a prompt after my "reconnaissance"...

True, but the point (probably) wasn't to just print the files but to find the ones that exist.
The AC replying to your post obviously didn't get the point, but he's right that for anything more than printing file names, a loop (with indentation and all) would be more readable than a oneliner.

No I wouldn't, I'd do this:
print foreach grep { -e $_ } @files;
Care to explain why? This does exactly the same thing, except with an unnecessary loop.
You are right (and it's a shame that I can't mod your post up).
Right now, google.de returns 29,200,000 results for "nazi", and google.com returns 27,700,000, so I figure it's just normal fluctuation (like the "Google dance"). Also, the number of total results is always a rough estimate (for large result sets).
Here is another favorable Microsoft reference for you to remove:
Even here on Slashdot, Microsoft once again demonstrate their superior skills. Look! linux.slashdot.org is still in BLACK AND WHITE, while microsoft.slashdot.org has a family-friendly modern green COLOR theme!
... is not the technology (which isn't new, as several others have already commented) or the hype (which is fine by me), but the way this buzzword has come into existence. The article that started it all is "Ajax: A New Approach to Web Applications", written by Jesse James Garrett. I admit this is somewhat irrational, but from the moment I saw the guy's smug face, I was on my guard. The article confirmed my suspicions - he puts up some pretty diagrams explaining something that people have been doing for years, gives the thing a catchy name, and goes down in history as The Man Behind Ajax. Mission accomplished. The acronym AJAX doesn't even describe the thing well: the XML-part is absolutely optional, and often does nothing more than slow down performance and "put XML into the application somewhere".
Maybe he deserves some credit for giving it a name. Maybe. All I know is that every time someone mentions Ajax as the "next big thing" (and maybe even puts up a link to that horrible article again) it sets my teeth on edge.
Its the first thing he has ever done to _stop_ the spread of viruses.
I know I'm being pedantic here, but Malaria is not caused by a virus, but by a protozoon (single-cell life form with a nucleus) called Plasmodium (usually P. falciparum). The Wikipedia entry on Malaria has more information.
Then again, when people talk about computer viruses they usually mean worms...
"John Dvorak has written an article for MarketWatch in which he postulates that the reorganization by Microsoft is actually a prelude to its breakup into three separate entities."
... and give decent schedules (12 hours a day),...
Why are developers always expected to work twice as much as everybody else, and still consider it a "decent schedule"? I'm seriously considering a change in profession. Or maybe I'll just work on an oil rig for a couple of months, to relax.

No, British citizens would never vandalize tracking devices...
When Tim and I to Brisbane went
We found three ladies in a tent
They were three
And we were two
So I booked one, and Timbuktu.

See? See? This proves that it is possible to give 110%, provided your IQ is high enough! You tell 'em, Mr Genius!
Wow. That one hell of a big motor.
... who misread the topic "New Server Chip Niagara" as "New Super Cheap Viagra"?
That would at least be an honest slashvertisments for a change.
employees making about $10 an hour to manually scan volumes -- some more than a century old
I think that if they hired younger people to scan the books, it might go a little faster.
Imagine a 100 year old at this job...
"...(mumble mumble) in my day we used priests to copy books (mumble mumble) oh dear, I tore another page, darn Parkinson (mumble mumble)"
use the Mac as my primary home computer, not the iPod
I applaud you for a wise decision.
iPods are pretty neat, but the Mac desktops have bigger displays, and they are harder to scratch, or so I hear.

I'll gladly implant my iPod mini if that means it will run for 12 years.

You mean, like this?
Verbing nouns weirds language.
