I ran through the same testing with my company and Trac came out on top every time. Yes I get a few errors (1 every few week and I am running MySql) but nothing that ever prevents me from using it.
Been using it for 9 months and love it. Set it up in a Virtual machine following the Ubuntu install sheet. Took a little over a couple of hours. Everyone loves it here and it is very customizable, even though you may need to learn a little python.
A major video rental place actual spent a ton of money and time thinking this format was the next greatest thing, only to realize it was over priced and you could only watch it on the PSP.
There are a few reasons why. First the US military is an all volunteer force. The people in uniform choose and swear to uphold the Constitution and orders of the officers appointed above them. Second you would have to have at least 75% of the military has to choose to coup, to even have a chance of success. There are police forces and other government agencies along with National Guard units that would have to come on board. It is a logistical nightmare and the upper brass in the military would see it coming a mile away and be able to squash it.
Did you have a passport, EIN or was it before 9/11? The laws have changed recently.br> Look Here for who can ask for SSN and what it is used for. To save you some time:
"Why do financial transactions require my Social Security number?
In 1961 the Internal Revenue Service began using Social Security numbers as taxpayer ID numbers (TIN). Therefore, SSNs are required on records of transactions in which the IRS is interested. That includes most banking, stock market, property or other financial transactions as well as employment records. Since your Social Security number must be included on all of these sensitive financial documents, it is important to limit other uses of the number. "
As I said before I am sure you can get around it but someone is watching.
Again, opening a bank account requires a SSN. Bank accounts deal with financials, which in turn the government needs to be aware of it for tax purposes. There are ways to get around it but it probably puts on some government list anyways. Typically a pre-approved credit card is not approved, you are still required to do some paperwork. Your bank just took my liberties than they should, and you did the right thing by moving your business.
Most cell phone companies run credit checks and need you SSN. Just like if you apply for a load or a Credit Card. You probably just forgot that you gave it to them.
Although Camera Phones don't have the best quality there are useful and convenient. I don't always carry my camera but usually have my phone
Examples:
I am at my sons Lacrosse game and I forgot my camera at home
Car accident, need some pictures of the accident scene
Those crazy moments when I wished I had a camera
You camera battery dies and you really want a picture.
The ability to take a picture and send to anyone with out a PC
ETC
I think I just proved that is happening. Maybe Sony gave best buy more PS3s if they don't sell them on their webiste. Best Buy could have thought, "Hell they will fly off the shelves like hot cakes, anyways." Maybe Best Buy is not listing them on their site because it is below some magical 'safe' number. Try calling your store, and tell me if they are out.
Check Circuit City. They have them online and in store pick up. Depends where you live. If I was running a site that checked store inventory I would drop items off the list if they fell below 10. That way it would prevent people from purchasing online and being out in the store.
Sony may be preventing stores from listing PS3s on websites unless they are in bundles.
Called my local Best Buy and they have them is stock. Don't believe me?

Just because it is not available online does not mean it isn't available in stores.
I would not be surprised if Sony has made retailers to WAIT to sell the PS3 online until March to drive sales to the stores, and hopefully sell more games, controllers, etc. I have only see bundles being sold online.
The number one reason you get hacked is through weak security. You can every gizmo installed but one weak password and a decent brute force attack and you are done.
A properly conifured Windows box is just as secure as a properly configured Linux box. Linux suffers from port-scans, SSH attacks, irc bots, brute force attacks, etc. Windows has virues and worms.
I am no windows fan-boy and I use linux servers. I won't say that Linux is not headache free and that I don't have to worry about security. Expecting average joe to be able to set-up and maintain a secure linux enviroment is not going to happen.
Remember that the average person can barely keep windows going, how in the hell are the going to install Linux?
No matter how great an OS and if Linux is installed on every PC, there will still be people installing SSH (because it is Secure!) and having root passwords like 12345.
Linux boxes get hacked all the time. They become another bot. Windows bots are nicely bundled with spyware.
Microsoft needs to bundle in a anti-spyware,anti-virus and a real firewall with Windows. Wait, they tried and third party software developers threatened to sue. Don't want them to have a monopoly on tools that can secure their OS.
If you were already planning to have a cell phone with service then the $60 is a moot point. I purchased a computer for $1000. but I don't factor in the electricity or the cost of the internet into the price of it. It is the cost of ownership.
Simple math is:
Ipod nano $249
Decent Cell phone : $200-$250
Having all your devices in one easy to carry device - Priceless. Oh and it looks pimp

If you are receiving any financial aid they will need your SSN to tie in the award to the student taking classes. I used a generated SSN at first but then I started to receive FINAID and had to give up my real one.
The instructor still didn't need the information to conduct his daily business.
Microsoft maintains there on database of phishing sites and they are focused on reducing False Positives. It is still relativly new.
If a bank is falsely blocked by Firefox they will simply tell users to use IE.
If IE falsely blocks a bank site they would simply sue Microsoft.
Both browser still have a margin of error of 20-40%. While IE blocks some that FireFox misses, FireFox blocks some that IE misses. Firefox is doing better, but I wouldn't say they are winning yet.
That doesn't make sense. Doctors have been making a ton for years.
The argument that in 5 years there will be more competition from.NET programmers is valid, but will it keep up with the job growth? Also in 5 years what will be the new language of business? C##? PERLdotNET?
I work for a small company and we use Open Source whenever we can and we are discussing moving to.NET. Another risk with a small company is here today gone tomorrow.
You also forgot with frequency hoping the radio needs to be synced to the correct time of the hops. That is easy enough to do with the military GPS units but still needs. Manually doing this was a big pain.

Agreed BUT,
If you buy the Iphone with a $50 a month plan, who is to say that they don't toss in Internet access for free.
