    Most pumps right here in Iowa offer soy-biodiesel. Not sure what the % is though.

  2. Re:Improve Customer Support on Michael Dell Returns to CEO Role at Dell · · Score: 0

    Even a premium corporate customer care at Dell su8ks big time.
    I don't get it. I manage a small company's IT budget, ( 50 workstations, 12 servers ) and I NEVER have problems with Dell. I have an assigned account rep, and probably have never waited on hold for an RMA on warranty parts longer than 5 or 10 minutes! And this is all with only drawing the attention of a $30,000/year account. I guess I just can't understand what problems some people go though with Dell.

    Otherwise, if everyone started generating their own power part of the time, the power company would go bankrupt.

    So, what's the downside, then?

    The downside is that I WORK at the power company!

    God I hate British pricks. Dell goes and does something no one else has tried, and they swat it down like they have nothing better to do than sit on their asses and wait for another bold US company shot at the market. I applaud Dell for this try. Its bold, its a test of the market that no one else has had the balls to try.

  5. Re:Violation of my rights on Symantec Restricts Crypto Export · · Score: 1

    If some madman uses a Windows password cracking tool to steal a password and hurt someone, it is called trespass and there are already laws governing it.

    Unless you... or me... or i assume hundreds of others have been hacked from a source overseas, where telling the police isn't going to do ANY good. What jurisdiction do they have? None.

    There isn't a windows button! Which key am I going to use to open the start menu now? ha
