I wonder how many Win2000 servers that are still out there. Last I checked, 70% of all Windows servers was Win2000, and the future seemed that when purchases of new servers with Windows OS would add Win2003 into the market. Many companies simply didnt want to do the upgrade from 2000 to 2003, but rather wait for some Longhornish server version.
Now all we need is flip Windowsupdate around to demand IE7 only.
Im so tired and fed up on people saying "buhuu Windows and Internet Explorer is so insecure and bugged"
Yes, the truth are that it is having issues, and it is annoying. But that is the price of being popular.
OSX and MacOS has issues too, both issues discovered and fixed and prolly tons of issues not discovered yet. Problem is just that the consumer market is much smaller than a PC with Windows.
From the attackers point of view, where is the chance of successful attack, the 1 guy with a Mac or the 10 other people with Windows?
On the OS programmers (Microsoft) point of view, where is the biggest revenue, the 1 guy with a Mac or the 10 other people with a PC/Windows.
And then there are consumers demanding newest technology and fixes. Since the Windows market is bigger than Mac and Linux, the voice of unsatisfaction is bigger there.
And then my question. If he was so fed up about Windows, why not go Unix on the PC. After all the techies in that field says it is so much safer and better.
Awww really cant be/.'s fault since Kevin has tried the/. so many times before and should have been prepared for it.
For me a/. effect is just simple poor setup of server and network.
I wouldnt mind to pick Kevin's brain for a while of why he is leaving.
So many rumors on the net ever since what seemed like mass firing of half the TSS hosts earlier which also removed some segments like Yoshi's corner. And then the remake of TSS into Attack of the Show, where they removed live audience, which was a mild welcome for the viewers.
Wonder who is gonna replace him? Adam Sessler, together with Kevin Pereria, that would be some noisy 40 mins.
Has he ever claimed to be über hacker? For me I saw him as one of many techies out there, learned from the internet.
He just had the host-flair to wrap simple text info into a nice media package. Sarah Lane could do exactly the same if people would look into her eyes rather than....her feed.
IMHO that board is crap. Seen retailers having a RMA percentage of 30% on that board, and my own experience it easily burns the CPU, USB ports or sound chip.
But on specs, it is a nice board. The only of its kind that gave end users opportunity to easy crossover from SDR to DDR ram, though the chipset is far the fastest.
Yeah yeah, well all know that humans are some of the earth's lil' inner heating problems, and we can fix it if we would.
Hydrogen car is here, and rape oil fuel, actually a engineering student once made a gasoline engine that could run 100km/litre, that was mysteriously sold for some millions to an unknown unexisting company.
And with Oil being one of the bigger things on this planet, that makes money go around, I dont think any government or company would be interested to say "let's leave the fossils down there and start using water" at least not until the last drop of oil has been vapoured into heat and polluted air.

Yearp follow u completely, I'm fan of G4-TechTV which first of all we dont have any channels in europe yet that is built on the concept, and no networks here carry the channel.
But still, one unanswered question for me is it illegal to share it. I mean, what if I ask a friend to tape (I really mean VHS tape) a show cause I forgot the schedule it, would it be illegal for my friend to actually give the tape to me?
SP2 success is medium cause users have different skills.
SP2 saved a lot of regular family members who are not deep into computers from keeping track of e.g. security issues. SP2 added some more wizards to the interface too regarding wireless networking.
For the more hardcore users, SP2 just ate up more diskspace and brought more annoying balloons to the systray.
Why not evolve the bittorrent concept into serving e.g. webservers, instead they are located on one single host.
One thing to figure out would be how to get changes updated stat.
Had a actually hardware non geeky friend who wanted to OC his new celly. Well he suceeded, but was so stupid not to secure the fan.
Suddenly or rather finally it tipped of the CPU and a burning smell hogged the room. Shows up the the socket melted, so his CPU was quite secured to the mobo.
After some cooling and a underclock back, the thing ran perfekctly sweet, only one problem, no way to secure a fan.
In ST:Generations movie, the original series crew learned that Kirk was killed, when Enterprise was caught in the Nexus (actually Kirk got caught in Nexus and died several decades later).
However in ST:TNG S06-E130 Enterprise with Picard finds Chief Engineer Mongmery Scott caught in a transporter beam, lost for 75 years. In the episode Scotty asks what happened to Kirk and the crew.......erhm but dear Scotty, in the movie filmed years later than the series you witnessed Kirk's death.
You see my point?
Just read the written version again.

And it was CDs stored away, from beginning of 80s. They were to be digitialized, and were found unreadable.
News here in.dk had a report some days ago about public libraries beginning to have a crisis on their hands.
Many original CDs dated back to the early 80's are unreadable.
Technology has moved since the 80's, but still, this is a kinda prewarning that a lot of material will prolly disappear if better solutions are not around soon.
Now we only need SCO to start sueing spammers, cause spam is their patented source code.
But honestly, good job from ComCast, but yes there might be a problem fixing the whole damn thing when you need the tools from the net.
But again "Format C:" usually takes care of that.
Just me or does your kids and your computer, run with some unfamous buggy hardware?
I understand your frustating and this wont help, I think you spend a bit too much time on things. Dunno about real-life situation, but think I could have cut time by over 50% on the driver issues and security issues.

Erhhh? The Screen Savers (TSS) which was converted into Attack of the Show (AOTS) are not only about videogames, but simply about everything.
Huh, link to Whirlpool Ovens.

Well, I'm still learning on IPv4 but following previous /. story then IPv6 is a set back for China since they already adapted IPv9 to their network.

150 different of them or 150 "all the same brand/model/spec" machines?

According to my ISP, www.sco.com is stil meself 127.0.0.1
Wonder when they will change DNS back. But nice to be associated with SCO even on a Winnie machine.
Athlon, Duron, Celeron, Pentium, Centrino, they all work. Sempron doesn't.
Try saying Geode, AMD's low power CPU equalivent to VIA's C3. Even in my native language Geode sounds weird.
What will VPN help?
VPN will encrypt the data yes, but as long as "everybody" can get access to the networks hosting illegal content, then law enforcement can too.
Never_never_land scenario would be every law enforcement person/agency didn't have access to the Net.
