Make sure you're students haven't started looping back the cables from one network socket to another, always make sure an unconnected network point isn't connected at the patch panel/switch end, - it's just asking for trouble, the more physical restrictions you have on your network, the easier the rest will be to manage. - Rogue access points may also be a downfall of you network, check for them!
SmartBoards can also run on Linux and Apple, its not the fault of the board manufactuer' it is the fault of the alternative OS's not being prevailent in schools.

Whats even worse, they took away their hard-drives! Article 8 of the US constitution prohibits that!! surely removing from use a web server hard drive, because they took photos of a police officer, or because the US election is going to be rigged surely classes as a cruel and unusual punishment.

mirror.ac.uk have done a great job for many years, it is unfortunate that they lost the contract, though i hope that the service from the new provider will be as good if not better.
Then again, knowing jisc (and i do) I not convinced they know a good thing when it stands up and shouts "i'm a good thing". Oh well.
Yes, but due to "The Unique Way the BBC is funded", I pay to ensure unbiased, independent from Government, reporting. I expect one sided comments on slashdot. I do not expect them from the BBC. Whilst everyone accepts the Hutton report was a "tad" (read:tony blair can do no wrong, cos he's such a nice guy) biased toward the government. We accept the BBC usually gets it right. Though this is blatent FUD
When SUN was just a start-up they had to pay millions in royalties to IBM for copyright infrigement or be taken to court and wiped off the face of the earth. Maybe SUN want their money back??

Does that mean now I'm going to get sued for every terminal client now, as well as ever server? Damn I'd start saving. Or get a job at Novell.
This is one thing I have never understood about the US tax system, why is the responsbility put on the individual to sort taxes? In the UK individuals (consumers) hardly ever come into this line. When they get paid, their income tax, which covers government spending (22%) is deducted by the employer, as is their national insurance (5%) contribitions NIC's (which fund pensions and the National Health Service). If you have a private pension all you have to do is tell your employer, who it is with, and their account number they arrange it all. Which seems very different to the US system with 401k's and the like.
Sales Tax, again is something different in the UK to the USA. 99times of 100, consumers don't bother with VAT, the prices you see is the price you pay. if on the shelf it says £2 then you pay £2. Unlike the US system where it says $2 and you pay $2.14 (7% sales tax) Which is confusing for anyone surely.
From a business point of view VAT is simple in the UK. A business buys a product at £100 plus VAT (17.5%) so the company sends a cheque(check) for £117.5. The company can then sell that to another business for £150 plus VAT = £176.25 so the business has made £50. But the business then needs to the send the (£26.25) VAT to Customs and Excise (the customs official take our tax (wonderful system!!). But we also can claim back the 17.50 we already paid, which means we only send a cheque for £8.75. Simple! You might not think so?? well this is a business, not an individual. All they pay is the £176.25. They dont even know they are paying the VAT, it's just a price to them.
So can someone explian the 401k's and why it seems so complex?
