1. Who lets a 3 yr old play with a FPS that uses realistic guns?
2. Who leaves guns out around a 3 yr old?
3. Who the hell blames the video game for points 1 & 2?
use Novell's eDirectory, it may cost, but they have a product called "Identity Manager" which allows you to interconnect many different systems to a central ID vault. Password changes are transparent, and management is extremely easy. Best of all it runs on Linux. You don't need the "netware" component to use it. It scales like a dream and is very robust
I have the 614+, at the time it was 200, but I've seen it as low as $49, have had it for going on 2yrs now and it's been a good appliance, you need to be running windows to upgrade the firmware. Range has been over 150' using both an Orinoco Gold card and the DWL-650+ D-link card
Someone finally found a way to bring "Clippy" to the web. "It looks like you want to buy server space, Would you like help in doing this?" At least it's a pictue of a human, not that stupid paperclip
The Tektronix (TekPhazer??) printers are pretty fussy about most things. IIRC, moving a "hot" one will not only cause the printing wax to clog the nozzles, but will also get the wax on the motherboard and into the gear assembly as well. The last time I dealt with these things (admittedly 4 yrs ago) the standard fee for cleaning out a hot move mistake was in excess of $5,000(usd)
If Linus said "I've got my family to raise, and a life to lead without being called Messiah by everyone jumping on the bandwagon,and this isn't fun anymore. you know what? I'm done. " We (/. and others) would be doing two things, one mourning the lost of our "leader" and secondly, trying to find a way to keep development going without said leader. SpeekFreely is the work of one person, if someone else thinks they can fix the problems identified (NAT issues. major code rewrite), then by all means grab the CVS code and fork another project away from the original, that's the point of OSS, you can STOP and if someone thinks it's worthwhile, they'll continue it.
it's not the tech support on the phone, think of how many times techs call M$, it's the patches and other errata that will be generated by this to help these older systems be secure and stay running
agreed on opera, every release I go back and try again, and in a month it's off to the delete bin with it. IE renders what it does, nuff said there. Firebird should replace Mozilla eventually, but the rendering is close enough to call it a draw
In firebird on debian stable at 1024X768 it looks better and more tied together than the ususal slashcode output. That being said, it should look the same on every browser, YMMV but to me it doesn't. Opera looks confused, IE looks the same, Konqueror and Galeon look as good as normal.
One geek's opinion....
I do a lot of installs (both Linux and MS) and I bare bones them 99% of the time so I can at least control parts of the proceedure. After I get the basic box running, THEN I get the necessities/extras installed. This process is easier with Linux since most of the installers give you the option of just let it boot and show me a login and that's about it. This reason above all others is why I don't like the default XP and Mandrake installs. IT's too much stuff, too many parts, it was the major reason I got into using Debian, so I could put on what I wanted/needed to do so I could use that paticular box for the function I visualized for it.
it works, if you stick with woody, it's pretty much a "hit enter" proposition. It's not as good as libranet or knoppix/gnoppix/morphix. But given the "Debian Mindset" it is a step forward.
Applicant" Ok I've been doing deskside here for 4 yrs...
You want me to: A: Work in an area that has a 5% wage tax B: Be the only support person for this app (that's buggier than a flop house mattress) 24X7X365 C: Drive two hours to work D: Manadatory 60hr week with NO Overtime E: Pay 300 a month just to park my car anywhere near work, no public transportation. F: And do A-E for no increase in pay!
Boss: Yep!!! Why don't you want it?
Note: this job was a promotion for the three previous applicants in the company before this one. The reason that it wasn't for this applicant was because he had worked support on this app 2 yrs previously for a different company that payed him 2X what he's making now
IBM300GL running smoothwall between my D-Link 614+ (router, switch and wireless) and the c-modem. I've never seen anything get past the smoothwall, but then the D-Link acts like a seconday layer of protection. Took a bit of testing to get everything dialed in, but now I don't get a hint of trouble and my overly geek homelan (10pc's at times) doesn't get touched. The key to protection is not a single layer, but a multilayer defense.
If this is true, then Novell ZenWorks is prior art. The ZEN Inventory module has been around at least since 97/98 and does exactly what is listed above using a report engine. It also can export all the inventory data to Crystal Reports....
Isn't this the same as the M$ user setting migration utility? Hate to say it but the boys in Redmond may have thought of this before the Patent Submitter......
Yep, they're either EP's or EN's large, heavy bulky, and unreliable as workstations. I avoided working on these when they came out in 99, The shop I worked at then decided to switch over to Dell's after the DeskPro 2000 disaster boxes.
The Novel Client for Linux (yes novel not novell). Logs into NDS and bindery, IP and IPX so it's pretty much good to go on any Netware network.(novelclient.sourceforge.net )Also Novell's management app ConsoleOne has been available on Linux for sometime now. (www.novell.com)
We had several users that needed Acrobat just to make "read only" forms. When more people ask, we're going with OpenOffice (just push the PDF button and poof, PDF!). Our graghics people are gettting The Gimp for Windows instead of Photoshop. Activation has nothing to do with this, it has to do with costs. Adobe is pricing themselves out of the market, and OSS strikes again.
512mb of RAM is enough for an on the go, get email, make a presentation, and go back in the bag portable. You don't need 1GB of RAM to do these things Even from "experts" recommendations for Windows 2000, 512mb of RAM is PLENTY for 98% of what people do with laptops. I know of of business laptops with 512mb of RAM and 30gb hard drives that never see anything close to max performance or useage. In this machine's niche, it's a great thing. The price is a little much but that's to be expected with the feature set (Centrino isn't cheap). Size, weight, design, this one is good to go. Use it as a laptop, don't use it as Server (that's what Xeons are for). This is just the beginning of the hardware separating between user and enterprise space.

1. They aren't a government agency
2. They aren't able to imprison anyone
3. They can't take someone else's property without permission to do so.
So what are they?
Impersonating a police officer or other gov't agency is a crime, as well as theft by deception so what is the RIAA?
Criminals!!!

I think it's based on anaconda, the redhat installer, it just doesn't have the "Redhat" corporate gui running

So GATOR and all the other drive by downloaders can be charged for their robo spamming? COOL!
this will definitely screw up their balance sheets, but
it will be the only reason to rejoice at this
