I've got a new Mac laptop here as part of a specific project, and MS seems to be begging sysadmins, web developers, and pretty much their only allies to jump ship and find some sort of alternative. That Mac is starting to look appealing.
What prevents you (us) now? The worldwide famine of dual-layer media, that's what! You can barely find the stuff now, and when you do, it priced at dollars-per-disc.
It would be a beautiful thing if these "blessed" discs were realistically priced, but then, it would also be a beautiful thing if the moon really was made out of cheese.
You ever see those real estate signs "If you lived here, you would be home now!"? This guy is using the same logic, you send out a load of spam that says "If you had our appliance, you wouldn't be reading this now!"
You mean VMWare Server BETA? The one that says "BETA" all over it? When they remove the "BETA" from the labeling, I think folks in the enterprise will be a bit more comfortable with it. I mean, c'mon, it's GSX rebranded, is it really beta software?
If you have a district with 10,000 registered folks, and the fancy electronic voting system shows 120,000 votes, and the lockbox contains 120,000 paper receipts, do you believe it?
If somebody is gonna hack a voting system, obviously they should be considering that their hack needs to mimic the casting of an actual e-vote, thus generating an e-receipt.
Rather than spend millions on what most techies see as a bad idea, why not spend those millions to educate folks on how to punch a paper ballot?
"See the box next to the name? Poke a hole through the box. Yes, like that. Good."

I suspect the Chinese government is only interested in blocking incoming spam, not outgoing.
