Aside from one or two applications that I use (Touchdown being one of them), the apps on my Thunderbolt are exactly the same as the ones on my Acer Iconia. Most apps are smart enough to know when you're on a tablet and change their function (Shortyz for one).
There's only a few old apps that still assume you're on a phone and look horrible on a tablet, but they haven't been maintained for some time.
How can you print to a Cloud Print printer from Linux? I recently bought a HP printer that has Cloud Print built in and I can print from my Android devices just fine. Printing from my work desktop to home would be nice without having to set up SSH port forwarding or whatnot.
ICD-10 has been out for nearly 20 years. There was a 5 year timeline to get ICD-10 implemented, and there was likely a few years of discussion with major Medi* billers before that to let them know this was coming along.
Much like the FCC and HDTV, health care companies must have ignored the mandates until it was too late, whined and cried about how they couldn't meet such a strict deadline and pretty please can we extend it for another 5 years. Repeat until our health care records system is completely unusable.
Though, wow, I would have thought VistA would have ICD-10, but it's being bolted on now. Strange.
I don't think it was easy for them to print all 24,000 copies. It cost more money in toner/paper/printer depreciation than it would have to release a CD-ROM. A citizen of the state would have a valid complaint for waste of taxpayer dollars.
I work at a major University in the US (rhymes with Schmarvard).
I lead a team of 6 that offers Linux training, OS installs, desktop support, and a Debian-based HPC/Web/Database/Tomcat/Wiki/RT environment. We used to get lots of requests to install Linux on laptops or desktops, though those have mostly slowed due to the fact it's easy to install. The desktops are almost all Ubuntu.
Most everything else we do is OS-agnostic since there's a lot of OS X on campus. I think the only thing that's really specific to a Windows environment is Exchange and the Outlook client. I just fire up a VirtualBox VM and run Windows 7 in it.
I'll give you netflix (grr), but I'm not sure that makes it even, otherwise I would have purchased a iPad by now. I can play all my MKV DVD rips on my Acer without having to re-encode them.
I see you haven't checked out the Acer or ASUS tablets. Large screen, multitouch, expandable memory, USB connections in and out, two major app stores, already does almost everything that Jobs seemed to promise with their cloud sync, and cost $50 less than the iPad.
No, they built FaceTime on top of existing standards. Like Microsoft using existing standards to make the.doc format. It's using XML, but good luck writing an app that can use it correctly.
Really, though all these things are good, but Apple is going for the same thing IBM and Microsoft tried in the 80s and 90s by locking users into a static platform. There's better bells and whistles now, but when Facetime can't connect with anything other than an iOS or OS X device, you'll have to say forget it and go with something more cross platform like Google Voice. Many of the new features advertised already exist in one form or another and the ones that are unique are more 'Huh. Interesting, but not enough to make my buy one'.
I'm slightly interested to see what Apple does, but it's likely they'll integrate only with iOS devices and iTunes. Amazon's works with web browsers and Android devices (and I hope they release an API soon). Google will likely be the most open in terms of mobile support and maybe more likely to have an API to integrate their cloud with third party apps.
I watch some BBC, but I caught an early episode of Top Gear where the presenter (Jeremy?) said that there was at least 8 inches of headroom in the car. Struck me as odd coming from a British TV show.
Me, I'd just like to buy only one set of socket wrenches and be done with it.
Normal racks are 15-20kW. If you can fit 100kW into a rack that uses up the floor space of 3 normal racks, you're still ahead of the curve in terms of power usage.
Then again, I'm getting 4*14*12=672 cores in a single rack using less than 20kW. Unless they're using 150W CPUs, I have no idea how they need to cool 1/10 of a megawatt in a single rack.
Microsoft effectively killed the netbook when they quit releasing versions of XP and forced everyone to move to Windows 7, which had higher memory and drive requirements. By the time you were done with a system that could run Windows 7 well, it wasn't that much cheaper than a regular laptop.
Tablets don't need to run a Microsoft OS. Apple and Google (and now Amazon) are showing you don't need to have a local PC to do most of the work you do with smartphones and tablets.
I don't like keeping track of what sites I can and can't use HTTPS on, so I installed HTTPS Everywhere on my browsers and get HTTPS access to a bunch of sites by default.
If course, if the junior admin were using sudo (as TFA said previously is a Bad Thing(tm)), then you might have been able to see in the logs what commands were run and how they affected the system before restarting.
Then again, if/boot and/etc are messed up that badly, you may as well give up and reinstall.
Fortunately, almost all of our production servers use SystemImager, so reimaging a server from bare metal is just barely longer than the time it takes to reboot.

And privilege escalation is a security problem. In order to jailbreak an iPhone, you must take advantage of some security flaw to do so.
The fact that code is signed or unsigned only means you're able to trace who signed it. It presumes that the code is secure, but there's no guarantee.

Jailbreaking is not really a security problem. Firstly, because "jailbreaking" just means allowing unsigned code to run.
Why don't you re-read that and tell me where your logic flaw is.

Google Video chat works perfectly fine from my tablet.

So they invented checkpointing?
Not at $3.99/month. The idea? Yes. Execution? No.

That means no Adam, no garden of eden, no eternal sin, no Jesus dying for our sins.
No it doesn't. You can be religious and think ID is a bunch of hooey. This isn't an either-or proposition.

Sony and friends are not the people that need to be convinced - it'll be a judge and possibly jury.

BTW, when do we get HTTPS access to /.?
Oracle already *is* the Evil Empire.
