I strongly disagree with this. I think in terms of expressions. Coefficient and constants are secondary. Algebraic notation emphasizes the expression, RPN emphasizes the placeholders.
People bring ENUM up like it was the answer. Stop smoking the SIP crack for a minute.
So long as there are two competing databases for ENUM, no one cares. When there is one, and only one, database, then we'll listen.
If I were to read between the lines, I would think this is a SOHO vendor trying to figure out to get enterprise features on an ephemeral budget. Maybe wave the magic "linux" wand and it will all get better.
If your time has value, then I'd suggest picking up a fortigate 60b and a copy of Windows Small Business Server. Add the free Windows deployment services and that takes care of PXE booting across the network and setup some logmein accounts and you're done in an afternoon.
On the other hand, if your time has no value, maybe you'd consider running vyatta or pfsense and ClearOS.
Or if your time has negative value, you'd could piece things together yourself. Let me introduce you to OpenLdap. Meh.
Or maybe it's not that negative, rather you want to learn the cutting edge and this is a learning experience, how about Fedora and the FreeIPA project, which with 2.0 will likely become the defacto standard for identity management on linux.
Course doing it all in one box can get a little tough at times, but whatever. Good luck.
Thanks,

The text editor in Gnote or Tomboy looks similar and works sorta like Onenote, but that's where the similarities end.
Onenote automagically OCRs screenshots into searchable text. The ability to add any attachment is entirely too useful.
I work with technical documents that are almost entirely delivered in pdf. PDF is such a shitty format for actual reading. It's like marketing runs the engineering and technical writing departments. Print to OneNote helps with this quite a bit, especially the OCR part. As an aside, I do most reading on an e-ink device anymore and just convert the pdf's to mobipocket format -- it works about as well as you'd expect, so I'll occasionally have to reference the original. I do most of my note taking on the ereader and then upload those notes back into Onenote along with the original pdf.
As some of the other posters have indicated, you can use the mic on you're laptop while note taking to record the lecture audio, Onenote is supposedly even able to convert that to text as well, but I've not tried much.
I don't get some of the other posts about using equation editors. Paper and pencil is still a far superior medium for this. Plus anyone taking notes in a math class is mostly missing the point.
Until about three months ago, I used to take all of my notes with a text editor and screenshots. I used the filesystem to organize my screenshots, pdfs and notes together. It turned out to be far more efficient to just use OneNote, plus I can search _everything__too.
"Protection programs are all well and good, but users need to also learn proper usage techniques."
No users do not. I hate this attitude.
Users definately need to be educated about what's considered a secure and reliable OS but that's it.
The computer is a tool to get things done. Being educated about system internals should not be a fscking requirement. Users should be able to turn the thing on and do whatever the hell they please and it should reliably just fscking work.
Aren't they the one's that went to bat over p2p? Geez you know they went out on a limb for lots of bucks protecting individual liberty. yeah they must be pure evil.
You me the same via chip that is so horribly broken to be totally unusable for importing video over firewire on the pci bus?
I'll give you a windows gamer box were the only thing that isn't integrated is the video card, but for huge i/o along the pci bus, I'd run far away. intel, sis,amd in that order.

These guys make the hardware that $VENDOR rebrands and sells as an appliance.

I'm pretty sure those are the Ubuntu Hoary defaults.

I think someone else ran out of 'small' benefactors and publicly posted this i nattempt to get more small benefactors and it 'seemed' to work.

Give me a stable abi and I will give you vendors to support *nix. Until then -- sod off mate.
