Circa 1979-80 or so; she and I wrote a gradebook program (pair programming LONG before the term was coined), as she was an educator and wanted to learn something new. My Dad would come down to the basement, stand there for a while, trying to understand what we were doing, then just shake his head and go back to his EZ-Boy and watch TV:-)
based on Sun's most excellent suite called Open SSO, which Oracle then decided to pull off the market, these guys forked the codebase, kept it going and have substantially improved it in the process, while maintaining the OSS option.
Unversal access is mandated by the regulating body, which was mandated by congress to create a regulation that embodied the principals it embraced, as the elected representative body of the people. Ergo, the people provided the idea.
Actually, you ARE paying, in the same way that you are paying when you listen to the radio, by being subjected to ADS. The advertisers are paying for your listening pleasure, in exchange for your listening to their inane ads. Streaming this to a MP3 file is really no different than saving a broadcast TV show to VHS. Now, if you DISTRIBUTE that saved copy then you have a problem. The artists are NOT getting shafted in this case, as far as my reasoning goes.
Nicely done. You are quite right, temperature, plus angular momentum, have more to do with it (planetary formation) than does mass. Without the initial rotation, there most likely would be no planets at all, all material having fallen down to the center in the early collapse!
I totally agree. Computers should be a totally natural extension of our environment, a la Capt. Picard saying "Computer", as he walks along the corridor. The closest I've seen is the POS/watron systems in use in the Applebees rest. chain. Any other examples?
Reading your post, you say that the existing system "takes an order, and as soon as they hit commit, sends it to our main system via a serial interface" (may be paraphrases to some degree). Having said this, why is Access even in the picture? Apparently you aren't describing the whole system. Could you elaborate on this a bit more?
I, like others, doubt seriously that NT is the problem, nor do I suspect Access (in an of itself) is the culprit. However, having said that, I wouldn't myself have chosen Access as a component of the solution (but, again stating the above question again, I don't see where ANY local database is required, based on your requirements as currently know). Is ASP fundamentally buggy? Probably not, but again, I wouldn't chose it (primarily due to knowledge base more than anything else).
If you want to make a jump to Linux, then make a solid business case. Demonstrate the ROI, given a new technology vs "fixing" (which may mean completely re-writing in the current technology) what you have. In doing so, you'll help to better understand your problem yourself, and certainly appear much more professional than many who simply rant and rave about how great one toolset is over another.
Why anyone would switch TO Comcast for ANY reason is beyond me; their lousy service is only eclipsed by their lousy CUSTOMER service!!

Too bad you don't understand democracy
