Its not valid. You do know that the carrier can identify the device type that the SIM is plugged into (via the IMEI) and could easily not enable service if you plugged a non valid (in their eyes anyhow) SIM in.
Not to mention they can use the existing SIM-lock functionality to lock you to/THAT/ specific SIM with your phone. So all the bad things you are thinking of, they can already do them _all_ without needed micro vs mini SIM.
VISA still use mainframes, all the transaction forwarding and processing uses TPF. Most of the authorization by the various member banks and issuers are using Base24 though.
On iOS they do not have access to your photo's, video's or calendar's.
They can however display browser requesting you to select a photo or a video and then manipulate the particular one you chose. They cannot access them outside of the defined API. This is one reason that all the "private photo" apps can only import pictures from iOS one by one, or by you uploading them via iTunes or the net etc.
Apple do have a MDM solution in Lion Server called Profile Manager. Its web based (server-side is Python with a Postgres DB).
Its a little flakey, but not too bad once you get over some of the undocumented "features" (like don't put certificates to be pushed out in the Everyone profile, or you'll get exceptions in Server.app)
Have a look at Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway (It's the renamed ISA Server)
It has full support for a man-in-the-middle HTTPS filtering module, with a wildcard certificate creation done for you as part of the wizard (the certificate is usually distributed in Active Directory to the clients)
It does however prompt you that there may be legal issues in your company should you enable the HTTPS filtering without notifing your users, and it also will prompt anyone using the client-side component with a balloon message saying that the HTTPS connection is being inspected.
No it doesn't. ActiveSync keeps a http(s) connection open to the server. It doesn't use SMS delivery. The old Exchange 2003 notification and the old Blackberry protocol did, not ActiveSync
If you wrote this with an Oracle DB you'd most likely use App Express as the frontend. And it scales pretty well (Look at AskTom and Metalink for examples)
And I think you're exaggerating a little with the 30 contractors and 5 years..... By around 25 contracters and 4 1/2 years....
Nothing of interest ever happens in Austria. Ha! I'll bet you never saw the Sydney Opera House or took the bridge to New Zealand!
Besides. Paul Hogan is from Austria. Paul Hogan RULZ!
And their beer is the best. I *love* Heineken.
U R A Tard.
He may be a bit harsh, but to be fair, he can tell the difference between Austria and Australia
This is technically no longer true. Leopard's license agreement allows the OS to be run in a virtual machine, meaning any x86 box with high enough specs and a vm platform capable of supporting Leopard will be able to run it.
That's not accurate. Apple changed the license on Leopard Server to allow it to run on an Apple Branded machine, in a virtual environment. They have not changed the license for Leopard Client.
Yep Standard is quite different to Enterprise Edition but you can't seriously be comparing MySQL with Oracle Enterprise Edition!
I can't think of anything that is in MySQL that Standard Edition doesn't deliver. And if your looking at EE then really for $40k per CPU you'd be running something that'd be using the EE features like Label Security or some of the Partitioning / OLAP stuff.
Admittedly as an OCP I might be biased but I wouldn't go near MySQL when there are things like PostgreSQL around, something about wanting my Data Integrity... Postgres compares nicely to Standard Edition (well once you factor in the costs its pretty neat for the smaller / lower end stuff) but really EE is only competing with DB2 and even then only DB2 on zOS (which rocks!)
You'd be wrong then. Have a look at the Oracle Store and you can get Standard One for $149 per user (5 User minimum @$745.00) Or you could get unlimited users for $4995 per CPU....
Oracle is expensive, its just not that ridiculously expensive.
People don't buy mainframes period. I think IBM offers them only for lease at this point.
Not really, as the Bank I work for currently has ~25 zBoxes and we're adding a few more.
We generally purchase them outright and then pay the frame charge when / if we want to upgrade.
For OTN you just need to have an Oracle ID which is free to register. Just follow the links. Metalink (Oracle Support site) on the otherhand, is not freely accessible and in my opinion should be.
Just so you know, SHA-1 is a hash, not an encryption algorithm.
You can't really encrypt anything with it because you wouldn't be-able to get the plaintext back.
Which is kinda the (one way) point of hashes....
, you've obviously never dealt with Internal Audit folks before! If they had an internal audit and never reported that would be one thing, but unless something is seriously wrong with a company I tend to trust internal auditors, they are brutal.
Heh I've never had my job called brutal before, thanks! Seriously though whilst I work for a UK Bank doing S/I, I would have thought that IA would be just as thorough in any large company. If Apple release the contents of the report, everyone can see for themselves what actually happened, but you can bet that the SEC have a copy and have read it very carefully.
From a robust permission scheme, remote control of group policies and really easy deployment there's nothing like Windows. (The macintosh really falls down in a controlled environment...
Have you ever used Mac OS X Server and the associated management tools? Have a look at Apple's Info. Management of multiple machines is really easy out of the box, ldap policies etc (just as good as Active Directory) and the deployment... much easier than most Windows tools.
I suggest you do a little research before you throw uninformed, incorrect FUD.
From what I read on Iwata asks, the Gamecube version is a mirror image of the Wii version, so that the sword is held in the right hand for Wii. Other than that they are the same game.
In the UK the pre-printed Credits and Cheques do use MICR, but the items printed by the tellers all use OCR. If you pay a cheque into an account without a pre-printed slip, the cashier will print one which will be read by OCR.

One of 100's of shell accounts.... with all the printers connected....
Its a laptop! And you wonder why Linux isn't that widely used outside of geeks...
Sensible defaults would help!

Thats incredibly homophobic. No need for comments like that, even if you think you are being funny.

How many errors can you fit into one post!
15% of Apple! Not anywhere near 1%. It was 150,000 shares, which they sold years ago (at a good profit).
Office 2011 on the Mac has VBA just fine thanks. Oh and it has Outlook as well.

You do realize that ActiveSync allows the admin and / or the user to remotely wipe the device? Supported on both Windows Mobile and the iPhone....
And consumers with a MobileMe subscription can wipe their iPhone (and other stuff like locate it / display messages etc) from www.me.com?

Umm isn't that 24 years, cause I cause born in 1982, and last time I checked I was 24. I feel old enough without having more years thrown at me!
