Put down the kool-aid. The registry is a total crapfest. I would not mind a central directory with independent plain text readable config files with independent names (similar to/usr/lib) for each system (as an option).
However, one of the strengths of UNIX/Linux is that you don't have to have the user rights to install in the central areas. You can install into your home directory and not hurt other people when you make stupid mistakes (and users will make them, as will admins).
By the way, why would you need a different parser for each config file? It is usually plain text in different formats. Sometimes they are simple, sometimes they add.....XML, etc. It is not rocket science.
many pieces of software base their license on how many computers they are installed on, and don't consider "virtual" computers as part of the deal, or they have some other type of allowance such as installing it X times on the same hardware in dual boot or virtualization, etc.
But....Will the word "Windows" end up like Java, misunderstood and misused from the original meaning ala "Java Desktop?" The monster that was Sun Micro obfuscated their products in the hopes that a word people recognize would be able to be used as almost a synonym for their company. They failed. Will Microsoft do the same?
yes, however those are called "Moon clips." The problem is that the movies tend to get everything wrong. They are also, by far, the largest "educational" tool Americans use today. You can see how this ends up with people's expectations of what happens in general, and especially moreso in the world of firearms. I can't count the number of horrible mistakes related to weapons, computers, geography, physics, etc in the movies I have seen in the last 3 yrs.
KISS applies here. Something like this will be false security (and expensive as hell). It is more likely to get you killed when you need it, or make you rely on it instead of proper safe handling. Its as dumb as a gunlock.
wow, someone actually owned up to it and didn't play it off as something like "Who cares, I am no't in skool or anythang." This and Bill Gates is stepping down to give away his money. 4 more signs until doomsday.
wish I could mod you up for that. Why can't someone who possibly has the skills to write decent code or plan a decent cluster setup of some sort rely on something other than spell check and get a 5th grade book on grammar?
Ok, the word is LOSE not loose. Secondly, if you LOSE 1 drive, in a RAID 5, you recover from parity based on availability of processing time on the controllers and the algorithms in place on said controllers. You must not deal with heavy storage if you think that recovering 3.5TB is too much to recover from.
Wow, a mistake was made. Flame on, dumbass. At least I am aware it is Fibre Channel and not Fiber Channel. There is a difference. I am also aware of the speeds FC runs on as well as it not being restricted to "glass" cable. I am glad you could make so many ASSumptions based on the tiny snippet of what I said.

so..... not a witch, then?

Novell supports SuSE and they have been far better than Redhat in getting problems resolved for my company
How much is this......Venti? Is it MUCH more expensive than a Tall?
or Naquadria :). I bet it was Nihrti's doing
Vmotion V3 is supposed to do exactly as the parent described. 2.5 versions would not have this capability.

you misspelled SHAM :)
Well, yes..... but I wasn't exactly listing EVERY gun that uses a type of clip :)

they're called magazines, unless you are talking about a Mauser broomhandle or an M-1 Garand..

it already exists on sites like gunbroker.com. It works fairly well.
The 2nd Amendment
I heard he was having trouble remembering to put the cover sheets on his TPS reports. Did he get the memo? I could forward him a copy of it.

without sparing and/or some fancy software, you cannot really recover from a RAID 0 failure.
Not if you want to sell copies of WINDOWS DEFENDER!
Now that the blackhats have had a look at the source code, we had better pony up the money to buy that service or else....

Are you aware of Past Tense?
Works fine for me on an X2 3800+
