    That sounds like the people who have to provide an answer, any answer, right or wrong.

    Yes, we've blocked some of our bigger problem sites and the highest hit counts are from ad networks.

    We do something similar but the list is smaller and easier to bypass. The reason being that at one point about a quarter of our traffic was Facebook and that has little or no value for our work. Personally, I would have smacked the users but that's too hard for management.

    Funny thing. The Dassault site says Windows or Mac.

    His office has trouble understanding cyber-threats from his own party. They've probably asked Stephen Conroy for advice.

    Also available for PC and Mac. What's everyone else running Linux on?

    Free as in Beer CAD package until the manufacturer decides it's not making any money and pulls support. PTC did a similar thing with ProDesktop Express. It could have killed the low end 3D design market (their competition) and used a similar key every year system.

    A couple of months back, we got a new 3560 switch. It's running 12, not 15. It's not a big deal, but they're still shipping 12.

    Incorrect, you can do commercial development with VS Express. It's just not very good. I was countering the guy who quoted the price for the most expensive version of VS. $5 v. $11,000 is huge. 5 against 0, not so much.

    Can you show me the upgrade test as written into SOX? How about free upgrades to iTunes? Why aren't they in jail for that little bit of financial malfeasance?

    I ran into a guy with issues connecting his iDevice to a Cisco wireless AP. He was told he needed an IOS update. He then figured out it was for the Cisco, not the Apple, then figured out it couldn't be done with iTunes and called an engineer. All sorted out in the end. I'm just glad it was an ex boss.

    Looking at the new versions of iTunes, they now talk about Free updates, so I'd guess they've got hooks in the system for paid update.

    Overseas students are a major export industry. They're not mining or farming, but they're still significant. These institutions have to do something to keep them coming back. Maybe the feds will pay attention to the sector again.

    Throw in the Colleges of Advanced Education (now Dawkin's universities) the TAFE colleges (being renamed to all sorts of things) and the high schools labelled colleges and you've got a complete mess.

    VSU depends on the state. It was in force in Western Australia in the early to mid '90s. And yeah, mandatory 'choice' of tech isn't a good thing.
