Having worked with and for professional mechanics, the requirement for your own tools is listed in the job desription and in just about all shops where this is required the mechanic ths mechanics get 65-75% cut of the profit. Meaning if the shop makes 200 bucks for a repair the mechanic gets 130-150 bucks. I don't see this happening in most IT shoppes.
I have to agree with you about the lack of proper attention to legal requirements. As much as OSHA gets in the way of getting a job down smoothly than can be a real big friend in keeping your pay and workload balanced. If you have not checked out hte OSHA guidelines I recomnmend doing so.
But seriously You may have an idea here. What is need is a Slashdot lite for the tech. impaired(average user). Maybe you should start a thread on this. Of course the real challenge is goin to be getting the information ou t where the average person can read it. Like links from Netscape and Microsoft(not likly) or Yahoo directly.
I almost agree with you. PPl advocating breaking in to the system shpuld be pulled up short. On the other hand I sure as hell want to knwo and have widly availbe to be sure i find out that the i only had a screendoor gaurding my jewels so i could move or fix it fast. Microsoft has the habit of niether moving nor fixing in a speed manner so i think th emore places it is availbe fo rhte unwitting to find out they are exposed the better.
Token ring and ethernet are not compatible median in my experince. You would need a box to act as bridge. If there was enough interested ppl at teh college, You amy be able to convince the Admin(maybe) to set up a box for this or let you.
I agree we need the nwclient public. As far as the NDS part goes it is irrelavent as novell already ships there win client free. Maybe we can convice caldera to release there full client source.
Bernie S. If you want to talk a bout a screwing take a look at his case. Can we let mitnick go already? I have not seen any thing ANYTHING new or worth reading in two years on this subject. As for how he got caught, He got cocky. The slow trial plenty of blame to spread; from wiaveing the right to a speed trial, to gov. snafu.
Did you know most ppl outside of us techies don't even remeber him. Think on that one for abit.
That still makes it good black eye for M$ and a coup for the open source. But Ture it may not be the most valid test but then who is going to get Microsoft to agree to a test standrad that would be un controlable.

Agreed. But they still could have the logs dumped to back up THEN cleared the orginals
