Please... Netbooks are primarily for getting e-mail, web access, and running your basic MS Office applications. If youâ(TM)re looking for some serious processing power and screen real-estate, the netbook is *not* for you.
In short, the Netbook is a crossover between the standard laptop and PDA.
Let's not forget about the sensors that are already near black asphalt parking lots, tar covered rooftops, and down wind from a rooftop heat exchanger.
Remember all you climatologists. In the world of computing, it's garbage in, garbage out.
You know, Symantec markets it's products to be a cure for infested PCs.
Yes, but in what state of the machine? Were they infected before or after their product had been installed? Did they explicitly state that an infection can be removed post software install?
I agree with mysidia with regards to what should and should not be covered by support. However, Symantec could have been more clear in what is (and is not) supported prior to someone making a purchase. It all comes down to communication be it in the form of the EULA, back-of-the-box info, or a 1-800 call to the sales devision.
Server 2008 has a much improved backup utility. It's easy to setup (I just make one backup job that repeats nightly), and will provide a BMR (Bare Metal Restore). The best part however, is the ability to assign multiple USB drives to a backup job. Which ever one is plugged in at the time, it will backup to it. This allows the admin or employee to swap drives before they leave office at night.
My only major gripe is that the backup utility will only do a file level backup. Exchange 2007 is not supported. In theory, you could stop the Exchange Store prior to the backups taking place, be we all know that's just not feasible. Instead, Microsoft states you *must* use a 3rd party backup program or their DPM 2007 product for backup/restore of Exchange! Damn:(
get a load of that. private interests are the decider of what's good for society now.
that's what happens when you allow unbridled capitalism. if there is an unorderly chaos, a lack of authority, more powerful groups fill the gap and establish their own hierarchy.
and
the only way that you can have EQUAL, FAIR environment is to bash feudal lords through your central hammer at your disposal - your federal government.
Uhh...you do realize that it was the government that created such laws as the DMCA, anti-piracy, and granted power to the RIAA and MPAA...right??!!
What your essentially asking is for is the government to fight itself. This is about as productive as a dog chasing its own tail. A complete fucking waste of time.
I have a better idea. How about we at *least* prevent the government from making stupid laws before we ask them to regulate an issue they just created. Naw, that would just make too much sense. Never mind...
In a few hundred years? Sure, why not. I'm sure there will be laws demanding all newborns to be genetically "enhanced" to be more docile as a submissive population is easier to control.
Famous future quote "Anyone got the source code for the fine piece of ass?"
It's insanity to think that you could be committing a crime by doing your job.
The world hates the Sysadmin. So it's rather fitting as we are criminals to begin with (in their eyes). I need another line of work away from IT. Too much of a liability these days.
Now get back to work you Cheeto fingered software pirate e-mail snooping pr0n collector!
So, why exactly should Apple go out of their way to make batteries more user removable?
Logically, they shouldn't. Psychologically however, they should. Even if a user will never change the battery throughout the unit's lifespan; not giving the user the option can stop an Apple sale dead in its tracks. More so in this crowded market I might add.
As someone who voted for Bush twice, I'm actually in agreement with you. I wouldn't have in the past, but today I am.
Why you ask? Because I'm so damned tired of the whining and complaining of those on the left, Europe (same thing), and other countries around the world. The Conservative movement was trying to do the "Right Thing" in terms of morality. Instead, we are greeted as conquerors, Imperialists, and warmongers.
Fine.
How about instead we take our marbles and go home. Lets just standby as radical Islam tears apart Europe from the inside out. Let's just standby and tip the balance of power in Russia's favor. Let's just standby and watch the whole world turn into a cluster after a global economic collapse. Only (and then *only*) when a nation truly crawls back to lick our boots to we expend a single round in their favor do we render our military services.
Uh, that would be EIGHT YEARS of Democrat control. Despite the technicalities, the Republican's lost their balls a long time ago so they don't really count much of anything anymore.
I know nothing about how the tax system in Sydney works, but I've been talking about America. Here, our tax system is nothing but a program to game for political votes through social engineering. IE; creating a system of dependants.
It's as though people who put their faith into the political system to cure their problem look up to our leadership as though only they are the smart and educated ones. Please, don't make me laugh (or cry). Again speaking for America, our politicians are so corrupt it makes the rest of the world innocent by comparison. Yet, we somehow vote these bastards in *face palm*.
If you don't think our laws and social engineering through micro-management taxes isn't killing productivity in America, then sir, you're flat out delusional.
We need a flat tax based system. But that will never happen as it would strip political power from both the Democrats and Republicans. So, it's a moot point really.
Central planning and micro-management regulation in turn acts as a thick viscous fluid on an otherwise free flowing economy. Left to their own devices, it would self correct.
Trying to micro-manage a free economy through selective taxation and laws is like playing a game of whack-a-mole. The only thing your hurting is yourself.
But do you want to know what the real shitkicker of it all is? Many - many - members of Congress have criminal records. And those hypocritical bastards still get glom onto power!
Just so you know, you can't vote if you've been convicted of a felony.
Ever notice how many dumb laws are passed that will charge a felony if you break it? Most are not created to protect the citizens. In fact, most are created to keep you from voting. They (politicians) are betting on you taking it in the ass so you can keep your right to vote. But if you try and be "Mr Braveheart", kiss your voting rights goodbye!!!

What we need is some CERN-scale collaboration on this so that we can possibly help to alleviate the energy strains on the global populace.
That's great and all, but not very helpful when you have religious radical factions tearing nations apart from the inside out.
What governs humanity's motivation often goes beyond just the quest of plentiful resources.

Kind of hard to root out corruption when the self-appointed politicians are being bought and paid for by big-business.
What's next, Creative starts bitching too because their APUs (Audio Processing Unit) are being snuffed out by nVidia and Intel?
Hey you two, STFU. Your technologies are forever joined at the hip in modern computing. Stop the bitch slapping and grow up.

What package? Oh that's right. The one in which was not read by a G-Damned congressman, yet, voted on? Talk about a leap of faith.
We are soo fucked!

As for the flat tax system... The American proposal can be read here. http://www.fairtax.org/site/PageServer?pagename=about_main
Sure, why not? It would have to be provided by male side though as a female's eggs are fixed in numbers from birth.

Such a glittering colossal jewel of ignorance! Sadly, your not alone in such thinking. Very sad indeed.
Yes, it's just your imagination.

I seriously doubt it will be republican or democrats that will help us.
It sure as hell will *never* be the Democrats. At least with the Republicans, you have have a slim chance of a tax repeal.
