You're pretty naive or unaware of certain legislation that passed back in 2004 that is preventing LEGITIMATE citizens, such as myself, with what's called a delayed birth certificate from getting a passport. So far um, taking me about a year to try to get original documentation cobbled and send it in 'yet again'...
And all because I was born at home and my parents didn't file a birth certificate for me within the year of my birth.
Then again I could be from a different planet and a real illegal alien.
Slashdot used to be cool, but now full of bumbling idiots that think their oh so funny with their fart and butt jokes. Keep it up; makes me looks smrt.
I couldn't agree more - Novell has made huge strides in GroupWise. If anything out there that could be considered 'Exchange killer', it would have to be GroupWise.
You would think that they'd take screenshots and not digital pics of the screen itself and then modify the pictures... This is a very poor hoax, at least they could have had Slackware 20.1 or something on it, that would have been believeable.
I work as a contractor until I can find viable employment with a company that is deserving. I have my A+ and experience working at a fortune 500 company IT department.
With that said, an interview I had six months ago sat me down with a piece of paper and a pen - asked me a few problems to work out on paper. One was the 'have a bucket that can hold five gallons and three gallons with an unlimited water source - measure exactly four gallons using both buckets' question... Needless to say the rodent in my brain turned on its wheel as I wrote out a diagram of how to do it, and got hired on the spot.
If you can think your way out of a box - who needs certifications? The answer is all IT people do. It sounds like everyone is right knowing our experiences and what's occured. I was fortunate enough to have previous experience and a few certs under my belt.
--- For you out there that don't know the answer to the question: fill the three gallon and dump it into the empty five gallon bucket - fill the three gallon again but only fill it up to the top of the five gallon - leaving one gallon in the three gallon bucket. Dump out the five gallon bucket. Now put the one gallon you had in the three and put it in the five and then fill up the three all the way and dump it into the five... voila! Four exact gallons of water (I was thinking about beer and the wasted five gallons when I took the quiz)

Too bad WoW doesn't have capabilities for linguistics as other games like FFXI

Hacker magazines don't die; they get detained by the Department of Homeland Security...
I asked them if any of their wireless cards were linux friendly - I ended up showing their "in house techies" what open source software is.
