Have you looked at the IT job market lately? While it's better than it was in 2000-2001, it's hardly what one could call robust. In the real world, most of us have to put some of our lesser held ideals aside to provide basics, like food, clothing and shelter.
Clarke was at the center of every major geopolitical event in the past 25 years. Didn't you read his book? The man is the Forest Gump of geopolitical events!
for those of you who missed it, that was dripping sarcasm.
It was the chip that killed MIPS as an independent company. The R6000 that preceeded it was late. The R4000 was late as well. The lateness of the R4000, coupled with Blob Miller, the CEO, being more focused on writing his own "Soul of a New Machine" than the business, killed the company. As a matter of fact, the running joke at the time was that MIPS stood for "Miller Inserts Penis in Shareholders".
Some countries require that one's acounting system (subset of ERP) to be certified. Has Compierre met this requirement anywhere to date? Do the Big 4 in the US recognize that it has the proper controls?
And $50-$60 per dvd for storage costs? Figure on a PC, your hdd storage is $0.60/Gb. I figure that a lot closer to $5.00/dvd not $50. How does this guy figure on charging an order of magnitude more?
I don't get the benfit of a system costing $27-100k, when you can put something together for 5x less.
Qwest is on shaky financial ground. Verizon is not. In a mostly stock deal, one needs to think about future value, especially if one is a large, institutional investor.
"Google itself was in beta for a very substantial number of years," said Page, who is president of products. "Part of our brand is that we under-promise and we over-deliver, and being in beta is part of that. It's part of our branding strategy."
Translated, in case something should blow up, we want to wait as long as possible before not being able to say, "Hey, it's in beta. What did you expect?"
Keeping you up to date is giving you a round-up of the top ones out there and "picking" a winner, not just announcing a winner with no selection criteria; that, my fellow/. reader, is called an advertisement.
I keep looking, but I cannot see how this is anything more than a product pitch. No comparisons, just 'this thing is really cool and think of all the cool things you can do with it'. TFA is nothing more than a rewarmed press release of the projector.
C'mon folks, making a list is easy. I gave you 3 in the original post. Sit down and think about the things you commonly get asked for help about. Then write out the "answers". Maybe you have 10 things, or 5 or 20.
I don't do consulting tech suppt for a living. I get asked for help in my "copious free time". So, to answer your question, I make money from my day job.
how they're such visionaries with keen insights, as opposed to what blathering, idiotic weenies they are whenever they say something good about Microsoft, or something else that runs contrary to/. opinions
If you don't like the shipping prices, you're free to shop anywhere you want. You don't think most for-profit companies lose money on shipping, do you?
If you want to see egregious pricing on shipping, take a saunter over to eBay.

Avaya's IPOffice is much cheaper.
RH just acquired it in December.

I'm sure he wasn't thinking about alt.sex.stories.* when he said that. :)
I've been hearing this, since, oh, just after The Great Renaming, which was when? '85, '86?

What license? It's a commercial, off-the-shelf Sony product.

Avant does tabs just fine.

Surely you've heard the saying, "Righty tighty, lefty loosey"? :)
given up on getting a girlfriend, eh? :)
of 10 things to check/do before asking me for help (anti-virus, spyware, windowsupdate, etc...). Most stuff gets taken care of in this step.

For the record, I'm pro- and you're a bit quick on the draw, don't you think?
'memory is cheap'

'processors are fast'
nobody cares about optimizing code anymore.
