If I walked into the server room, heard nothing, I would friggin' panic. Silence would take some getting used to. Also, that low hum or whir tends to soothe my frazzled nerves on my home PC...,
Just my take.
It was bound to happen..., .
However (pause), if I get even a whiff of a malicious attack!!!//Regresses; Where the hell are
my crit die!? Gimmie my +3 vorpal!// Ah, but those
were the days when pencil, grid paper and an imagination made all of this meaningless.
Agreed. I for one run Ecomstation as a viable Internet alternative cuz who writes virii for Warped? It's fast, comfortable (for me, who has been involved since the very early 90's) and robust as heck. If you want a viable alternative, sans bells and whistles, this is it. But I agree with the above post..., the ecomstation site (and all of us other propeller heads) paid for it/run it. To tell the truth, I wouldn't be too upset. As much as linux would benefit, so would OS/2.

Keep your head down and your boots laced tight. Take care of your partners, mates and otherwise. LOVE YOU. Hate the politics. You're heros.
P.S. The possibility of a 'draft' may change some individual's outlook on the word "stress".

Let's see how this works.., We have a broken security model so the onus is on you to fix your
apps because of our piss poor planning (ease of
use vs security/functionality) Hmmm...,
Let's look at this another way. OSS is going strong, we've made serious inroads in recent history. Redmond has Redmond for programmers. We have the world. MS is corporate (with all the associated baggage that goes with it) and we have the personal initiative, pride and the results to show for it. True, I'm not a programmer, but what could be sooo earthshattering in NT code that would tempt someone to even consider messing with such an obvious success? We're on a roll. Leave it alone. We don't need it!!!
My 2 cents.
Slashdot Mirror
CP/M, various flavors of DOS w/GEOS, OS/2, Slackware from its inception, Mandrake, Mandriva and currently Mageia.
