No doubt there is a lot of bandwidth to Google, regardless won't this slow down the Internet to some extent due in most part to its popularity?
Google is making some really bad moves. It's like watching Blind Date and the guy is just saying the wrong things. AOL?!? Now ad clutter?
Frankly, Google is *not* that great of a search engine. There is so much more needing to be improved in search technology. Guess, I'll have to show them how it's done.:->
More, the amount of Google reporting is getting a little overboard. Worse, they are turning into a corporate greedy black hole, devouring companies like M$.
Sure glad I did not pursue employment with Google. "Do no evil" my ass.

...stopped reading when it was saying Symantec, McAfee and Microsoft were better than Lavasoft.
Every machine I have serviced which had either Symantec, McAfee or Microsoft products, had an infection. Worse the machines would crawl even with a fresh install of said products.
The review is giving those products big stars? What a joke!
Any product that causes your machine to crawl after installation IS a Virus imho.
Here is the recipe: Install one product to act as sentinel in resident memory, either Webroot Spysweeper or Lavasoft's Adaware. Install both Spybot Search and Destroy and Spyware Blaster.
Interesting that Spyware Blaster, http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.htm l, was not even mentioned on/. It is a worthy product because it inoculates to prevent those users who insist on installing crap like Gator, err...Claria or Comet Cursor.
The single most important role of spyware should be to do its job with minimal footprint on your resources. The review clearly ignores this.
They will be comeing out with a Power over Ethernet version. Probably why they are offering the current versions with 10% off. (I like the wireless) http://www.picotux.com/ordere.html
Here are a couple no one has mentioned yet. "rz" and "sz" It's the shell equiv to receive and send via zmodem. Works great when moving files from a terminal emulator like kermit.

"cut" gotta say I've replaced a lot of sed and awk code with this simple string manipulator.
"vi" I want a vi T-shirt, how nerdy is that?
"w" gotta know whos on first, whats on...
"wget" is sweet for downloading
"lf -la" to search for hidden files. Anyone seen ".. "? {notice the space.)
"bc" for calcs
"tee" for splitting processes

If you could master everything on the following man page, give yourself a pat on the back...you are one powerful tech. "man perlre"

If that search company is Google, go for it.
Although, with all the cash they continue to harvest, you certainly could go back to the bargaining table and request more.:->

The best detection and prevention I have found to date is simply watching tcpdump and taking action manually.

My point was that if you want to prove performance and security, you have to go no further than those statistics given its the reason Linux dominates the Internet playground.
"You could install an active scanner, like mcaffee or norton"
yep, and watch the machine crawl or worse crash from installing these horrible products. Please tell me your not a consultant giving this adice to the business community.
"You could also use clamav to filter just about anywhere. Squid has a plug-in for monitoring web-traffic, amavisd-new uses it for mail filtering, and Samba can use it for scanning incoming files on file shares"
and then you go and redeem yourself with the best advice on Slashdot!
"warns the biggest test will be whether it can demonstrate the necessary performance and security to function as a data centre server for mission-critical applications."
That statement has to be coming from the completely clueless.
Slashdot Mirror
There are a couple of weak links to this solution, but nice design none the less.
The connecting joints and hoses will be subject to flex failure.
No doubt they will use appropriate materials to counter repetative wear.
Also, as with most space equipment, they will most likely make a redundant system.
Reality is a dream.

I'd like to get some testimonial.

The Register has this interesting story: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/01/11/open_sour

Mod me down, but we are getting to a point of critical mass here.
Got to agree with this.
At least Slashdot could put a link to Digg.com on the main page so I can quickly switch to a faster news source.
Ballmer is going to f***ing kill Google. Remember. :->
After the news that the shuttle will be delayed for yet another ride around the Sun, I'm certainly not about to buy Mars for 2020.
Unless of course some drastic positive changes come to space exploration in the near future.
My question is, why are we not pouring all these billions into gravity research?
Master, what we have here on Earth first.
Then the stars will come to us.
