  1. And next thing you know... on 'Friendly' Worms Could Spread Software Fixes · · Score: 1

    We have SkyNet and a bunch of cyborgs running around.

  2. Re:"CA"? Show some goddamn courtesy on Former CA Boss Gets 12 Years, $8M Fine · · Score: 2, Informative

    CA is the name of this software company. It was known as Computer Associates, Intl. about a year ago.

  3. veni, vidi, vici! on The US Navy Says Goodbye to the Tomcat · · Score: 2, Insightful

    She came, she saw, she conquered.

    She was built to fight the USSR, and remained in service long past her purpose.

    She did her job, and jobs she was never meant to do.

    I will miss that amazing bird.

  4. Leave it to Microsoft on Windows Live Search goes Live · · Score: 1

  5. Future Proof??? on A Clock That Runs for 10,000 Years · · Score: 1

    Untill the darn metric time standard is ratified...

  6. Couldn't we use something more dangerous? on Building an Open Source "Clicker"? · · Score: 1

    I am thinking the use of fire, radiation, lasers, UV, X-Rays, knives, spears, blow guns, etc.

    Come to think of it, Tasers have unique identifying dots that are emitted whenever fired.

    Something to get the kiddies interested.

    Learning should be fun!

    Just my thoughts!

    Not A4, that is some harsh 5h17!

  9. Re:OS2? on IBM Officially Kills OS/2 · · Score: 1

    I felt handy for fixing one buildings HVAC system running a pre-Warp OS/2 OS. I bragged for weeks about fixing the AC that 3 Trane engineers failed to do. Long story short, it was really the long haul modem connection, but my 10 minutes of OS/2 experience in Highschool sure helped! JjP

  10. Re:Correction on IBM Officially Kills OS/2 · · Score: 1

    If it wasn't for Y2k banks would all still be using green screens (wait some still are)...

    God I am glad that you are not in charge!

  12. Re:Typical UN Resolution on U.N. To Govern Internet? · · Score: 1

    I thought the final phase of the UN sanctions process was a sternly written letter (on UN letterhead).

  13. Re:get over it... on U.N. To Govern Internet? · · Score: 1

    Keep this up, and we might take our ball and go home... (Just Kidding)

  14. Re:UN only good at handing out food and medicine on U.N. To Govern Internet? · · Score: 1

    I think they are good at bashing the U.S. (while taking lots of cash from us, and some great property in NY, NY).

  19. Back in the day... on Classic Mac FPS Marathon Turns 10 · · Score: 1

    In high school, I used a mac for tw0 reasons. To play Marathon, or to try to get the data off a disk that I had no idea what the source. Years later, I feel bad about the "punt" to the mac OS, but it was the best OS for publishing. JjP

  20. Re:Liars on 2004 Election Weirdness Continues · · Score: 0, Troll

    Mike Moore is not a valid source...

  21. Pest Patrol on Spyware/Adware Prevention In Large Deployments? · · Score: 1

    I have looked at webroot's product, and PestPatrol. Long story short, pest patrol is easier to deploy, easier to manage, and catches more stuff. The next version is going to be more friendly for larger networks (5,000+) but the current version is easy to manage from one management console.

    My favorite part of the product is that you can clean your network without leaving your rolling chair.

    Spybot and Adaware are great for single machines, but in large WAN/MAN/LAN sites they are to $$$.

    PestPatrol.com also has the best information on the net about pests and on getting rid of scumware (free *as in beer* even if you do not buy the product).

    Good luck!

    ---
    Reader's note:
    (My company sells PestPatrol so please take that into consideration. That being said, I have spent tons of time evaluating both products. They are the best two solutions for the managed network.)
