Oh what a sad day it was when I (being a cable monkey) was asked by the supreme programmer to get his computer back up. When I told him the his HD was dead, he looked at me with shock, as he explained that the last months worth of his so valuable work was on his disk. I asked him if he backed it up anywhere. He said no. He then asked me if we backed it up. I said no, we don't do that for local drives. We sent the drive off to see if anyhing could be recovered. Nope, big waste of time. Almost like his own little tornado in his PC. Hope it doesn't happen to you.
At my company we allow linux but it is not supported (We design embeded linux onto DSP chips)
Last week, they decided because of the usage, that they are going to send me to formal linux training so that we can support it. I'm stoked.The biggest problem we have with them (Linux servers) is that they install with the DHCP service running by default and they end up stealing all the ip's. And because they installed the server we don't know where it is. We only have about 200 computers on the floor, but its a pain to find them. Happens about twice a month.
When you're in the military. They walk up to you and tell you that you are going to give them the sample. They don't ask.
I guess you could choose to go to the brig instead.

It would cost almost as much for the stand-alone driver for the notebook's lcd than a lcd monitor bought at the store. But it can be done.

23Mil is nothing to Microsoft. As long as the "other" offending OS is gone.

Next topic on /. will be about a guy who took apart the flashlight to replace the batteries.
