    Fully agree. And not just to poor people.

    Anyone who is given expanded knowledge opportunities throughout their formative years will most likely have an increased IQ.

    It just so happens that richer people often get this, because they're rich.

    No, it showed that taking the kids to the gym(nurture) increased their muscles(IQ). Sitting on the couch(nature) didn't.

    Wrong. In fact, nurture seems to have more to do with IQ than nature.

    Understand, this is a change of 2 standard deviations in IQ.

    Contrary to what you might expect, for those children, the I.Q.â(TM)s of identical twins vary just as much as the I.Q.â(TM)s of fraternal twins. The impact of growing up impoverished overwhelms these childrenâ(TM)s genetic capacities. In other words, home life is the critical factor for youngsters at the bottom of the economic barrel.

    There are lots of viruses, malware etc that you can get from so-called drive-by installs. Open ports are another way that is still infecting lots of machines

    Wait, you're deleting thumbnails & metadata?

    If you were my server admin, I'd punch you in the face for deleting those.

    Ever think they might be useful and/or necessary for your users? If nothing else, so they don't have to recreate them every time they access the data.

    And again you show ignorance of the tools - these tools are used at shops that have tens of thousands of client machines -large newspapers, Disney & Pixar studios, large ad firms. They don't worry about compliance or policies any more than an AD installation does.

    And back to my original point - if you use MS's tools, they still cost a shitload more than any of the tools I mentioned. You HAVE to buy AD, you HAVE to buy CALs, you HAVE to buy SUS, you HAVE to buy AV, and it costs, and costs, and costs.

    You're still bitching about small(10k) hidden files. And since you didn't bother to look it up, they're .DS_Store files. They keep a record of the view of the folder when looking at it from a client. Your users might want to keep the directory in list column for those thousands of files. This is not a server issue, it's a client issue.

    Also, you can turn off the ability of the client to create them, but I'll leave that an exercise for you.

    As for centralized deployment, etc, there are lots of tools - NetRestore, Deploy Studio, Radmind, Centrify, Casper, FileWave
    Here's some ideas from Apple:

    Just because you don't know the tools exist, doesn't make the platform not have enterprise tools.

    You're seriously bitching about hidden files & different configurations for different OSes?

    And why don't you have copies of your important config files? And when have you ever had an update reset your config? I run a bunch of OSX servers and have never had that happen, on any service I run.

    Then you're talking out your ass, and have never deal with paying for CALs.

    Here's a test for you.

    Price out hardware & software MS solution for an email server to host 500 accounts.
    Do the same for an Apple solution.

    Then add on AD, and SUS.

    The licensing for MS software alone will cost more than EVERYTHING from Apple. times 3 when you add the AD & SUS.
