No current FAQ, and documentation is "under development". However the CVS changelog indicates it is under active development by a number of people (Vincent Pelletier,
Vesa Jääskeläinen, Yoshinori K . Okuji, Hollis Blanchard during the course of August to give credit where credit is due). The recent focus seems to be on the sparc64 platform. Has anyone been adventerous enough to actually try to install and use it in an x85/AMD64 environment?
Twice a day installations/designs would make for a more intersting comparison. Compare document import/export between applications/OS. Compare OS+browser renderings of moderately complex CSS based webpages. How often will MS be shown to be the odd man out?
1. no PC speaker included, tough to find. Here's 1 source for $1.20 http://www.allelectronics.com/cgi-bin/category.cgi ?category=580&type=store
2. BTX adaptation extra cost on base model
3. "Cross-flow" fan extra cost
4. make sure you have 36" IDE/SCSI cables or make sure to install drives from the bottom.
5. Needs more holes for cable ties, get a package of adhesive tie mounts from Radio Shack.
Pros
1. Includes Casters.
2. Includes 4 into 3 drive module.
3. reasonabale price under $200
4. As parent mentions: 2nd P/S mount to power additional drives.
Ah, yes. Starlost. It starred Keir Dullea who portrayed "David Bowman", protagonist in 2001: A Space Odyssey. I have a penchent for amusing myself by answering the phone, deeping my voice and asking "May I help you?" which was the prompt from the library interface and have never had anybody question or identify the source of the phrase and share in my amusement.
Typical indeed. In my dealings with MS guys/gals in the "trenches" like developers and support I have found most to be honest, hardworking and truly trying their best to assist me. OTOH dealing with PHB level representitives usually leaves me feeling "dirty" as they unable to disguise their primary purpose is to "market" and "spin" their answers rather than providing the actual informaion being sought.
All legitimate software must register EXE/DLL/so etc. modules. If it aint registered it is spyware.
All registered software must include functional and complete uninstall capabilities.
If misacreants register, independent and commercial blacklists can be consulted to block installation.
Legitmate blacklists should probably have an appeals process, but from my point of view if more than a couple someones find a hash "unfriendly", it probably is.
In reality there are probably several details not yet discussed.
Somewhere in our tech support department is someone that does not know to adjust the slide in the paper tray after adding more paper, resulting in paper jams after they put the tray back in the printer and you expect joe sixpack to understand connecting a windows machine to the internet is like leaving your car running in an intersection while they walk in to the fast food joint to get some fries.
Something that did not seem to be discussed here. When you rotate out of server hardware whether from obsolescence or lease expiration, moving from one piece of equipment to another is a royal pain in the petuti. Pick your poison: VMware, MS Virtual PC/Server, Xen (if you are all Linux). Once you are virtualized you no longer have to worry about HAL (hardware abstraction layer) issues like scsi drivers, video drivers, etc. Need more "oomph" for a server? Use VMotion to move it to a more capable server, without shutting it down! Xen has a similar tool. VMware has P2V that for $1500 will convert 25 physical servers to virtual servers, it is time limited to 12 months. The unlimited is $5K.
Lease a pair of IBM Blade Server chassis (no single point of failure) populate with enough blades to support your needs with an extra so you can clear blade of its VM guests to do a flash or host OS upgrade in the middle of the day. Add an appropriately sized SAN for your disk storage. IBM has very reasonable support contracts (and will support VMware for you as well, 1 phone number to call). Lots of advantages, there is a big productivity improvement in creating & maintaing servers, you can do more with less people or hopefully reduce some of the late evening and weekend hours. Biggest draw back is cost and a 3.5GB limit per VM (some SQL servers with/PAE and large memory requirements might not be suitable. There are plenty of sales people that will crunch the numbers for you, just talk to more than one company so that you can keep them honest. Three year down the pike you can swap it all out for the latest & greatest and your users never miss a beat.
Terminal Services works well for non-graphic tasks, word processing, spreadsheets, etc. Things like Photoshop and CAD are currrently NOT well matched to a T/S environment. Create enough load balanced T/S VM guests so that you can take one out of service for OS updates.
IIWALWIHTFT (If I Were A Lawyer Would I Have Time For This?) Since PJ and the groklaw volunteers spent considerable effort and cash to make these documents available, might SCOXE not be liable for theft of services?
Actually I prefer to be in the next century when "intent to deceive" laws are strictly enforced and violators receive a lifetime incarceration in the moon. I have yet to encounter a flash presentation with all the useless twirling geometrics, gradient colors (yeth, Doktor Frankenstein, yeth. We must add gradient colors. Hmpf, hmpf.) and a barrage of MTV-style image cuts that were shot from odd perspectives that could not have been improved upon by a simple black on white hyperlinked bullet list. I don't want to be sold about the chome plating, I don't want to be marketed about the sizzle, I want to be informed about the facts of the product and what makes it different from the competitors. I want to be given full disclosure about how much I will have to pay to drag it out the door, right there on the site! I don't want $CALL, I don't want to contact my local reseller. If they can't post the price, then, ipso facto, it obviously has no value. Compare the business ethics of Newegg where the price quoted is before rebates to marketroid efforts of Tigerdirect, Compusa and most others looking to sucker you with small-print, higher out-of-pocket prices, bait & switch tactics and "extended warranty" scams. I am sure it is only a matter of time before a "doc fee" is added by these bozos. Welcome to the reality of a consumer in this century.
P.S. The only VCR I have is gathering dust in a box of stuff I inherited on the death of my parents. I was timeshifting HDTV on a scratch built PVR long before MythTV became all the craze. Yous, I imagine is still blinking 12:00 on the display.
P.P.S. Get a larger vocabulary, profanity generally negates any point attempting to be made and marks one as an insensitive clod and/or an ignoramus.
So, have you checked that inept religious scholars tout him as a citizen of Nazareth, a city not in existence during his purported lifetime. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazareth It is far more likely that, because of his association with "John (Yochanan) the Baptist", he was a member of the Jewish "Nazarene" sect http://www.nazarene.net/nazareneh.htm and ignoramuses munged that into his being from the yet to be founded town of Nazareth. Sorry, if they can't get these simple historical facts straight, how can anyone assign credibility to their more outrageous pontifications?
P.S. Apologies to the originator of this argument, I was unable to find him/her in my searches. Fortunately, I was able locate some supporting references and used them here.
no result for cosign.org or co-sign.org and a vivisomo search is all about loans, not worth trying to find the needle in THAT haystack. Did you try your "Help...About"?

One has to ask how useful a "bona fide" email would have been with an invalid link? I can not work up a lot of sympathy for the few clowns who cant be bothered to properly cut/paste a valid URL from a browser.
Another point: If it is coming from a legit SMTP server then they should get a clue from the NDR sent to them when the email is rejected.
froggle reports a Peppercorn "eRIC II" is between $525-$800. They all look the same, don't know what the $800 one is offering over the cheapest, but I have a sneaking suspicion that the OP isnt going to like the price.
I am by no means an expert, but you can get get POTS connectiveity for independent lines in less than T1 chunks, I believe these are the FXS cards which should be available in 1/2/4 line flavors.
We will find that the first pioneers of enabling Treacherous Computing features will be swamped with support calls about why this or that software wont work or CD play. Does anybody think that if they are stupid enough to try and lock it down, they are smart enough to accomplish it with sufficiently informative and detailed "error" messages to keep the average user from calling for assistance? This concept will fail due to the combination of "implementation ineptitude"(TM), computer illiteracy and the restrictive budgets conventionally given to support departments.
Whitebox Linux is primarily run by 1 guy. CentOS, IMO, has more of a community and has some other offerings. They both work well under VMware workstation.
For those less technical, you can create unique and disposable addresses that forward to your real account with some other neat features to give you control of how each address is handled and the ability to send from the disposable. They even have open-source on how to setup the mechanisms for your own server. I have no affiliation with the site, just a satisfied user. http://www.spamgourmet.com/
