Lame. If I don't want ads to the point that I go install adblock, why would I want to undo that? If the site has a loyal group that wants to view ads, they already have the means to whitelist. Also, a website can put a plea 'please show our ads even though we know you will not clickthrough' on a site now. If adblock ends up pestering me - it's fork time, and the first cool mod would be autoblocking of sites with 'no really, do you want to see some ads?' tagging to support this stupidity...

What is the best way for new IS managers to convince their superiors of the need for widespread change?
If things have been working fine (from their view) there is no reason to change. Change caries risk, and status quo has been working a-ok. After that many years static, there is little chance they are able to learn new tricks. A new person coming in might have a shot, but you don't. Work on your resume and start interviewing now. When you get a new gig, give your old place 2-4 weeks notice (depending on how nice they have been to you). DO NOT TAKE A COUNTER OFFER from your old company - that may be nice short term, but it almost never ends well.
Are you in the real world? Most fast food places do not take a signature or check id. Ever use pay at the pump for gas with a credit card? No id check, no signature. Merchant services via a bank are about the worst deal for businesses, so you knowing something about that has zero to do with gas, fast food, etc... Not the same as retail sale of property vs consumables.
I was hoping you would go this route:) You are totally incorrect.
First lets compare apples to apples, you omitted some steps in CC that you have in Cash. And whats with your "take bills", like you don't have to "take CC" CC= Swipe card, wait for machine to authorize payment (the longest part of the process), take the person's ID, note their ID number, have them sign the receipt, store the receipt in the correct slot. Let us not forget that many stores (smaller stores, but still many) swipe the card through a manual machine so they have to fill out the form and get information, plus make a phone call.
You have no idea what you are talking about... 1. At the fast food places, many/most have the customer swipe, so the person at the register does _not_ take the card. 2. They don't check ID, or note and ID number, they also don't sign the receipt. Go to an airport in a reasonable sized city and get fastfood - then come back and post.
Store doesn't hold paper receipt either - they use the electronic transaction log. I'd be happy to send you a public releations contact at a fast food firm so you can talk with them if you are too busy to see how it works for yourself.:)
As for faster then cash. I am pretty sure giving $1 is faster then running a credit card. Yea, as a person who worked in banking for almost five years I can pretty much expertly tell you that it is.
Well, you can say that, but you would be wrong. Creditcard = swipe card and hand over receipt. Cash = take bills, put them in right spots, count out change, and hand it over along with receipt.
Sure, if there is no change it is _close_ but CC is still faster at the places that are geared for it.
As to the volume - that and the lower overhead are what paypal is all about. $2 isn't a micropayment..
Yet somehow Jack-in-the-box, McD, and lots of food places at airports etc. manage to take credit card payments for a order of soda or meal - they are _not_ loosing money on it... I don't even need to open an account with them first, give them my address or even sign anything. - It's faster than cash too.
Where did you get the DS9097U-09 adapters for $5 each? Looks like they are about $12 qty 1000, and $28 qty 1-25 w/ a 8 week wait, or $34-$52 via re-sellers qty 1-10. It sounds like a great project, but if I can get the adapters for $5-$10 vs $30, I'll hop on it vs waiting.:)
Thanks

>> but you might see less tire in contact with the road, so the stopping distance might go up some.
What the fuck are you talking about? Stopping distance has nothing to do with contact patch size. It cancels out of the equations.
Get educated before you spout your bullshit.
Bzzzzt - incorrect. Traction and friction. It has quite a bit to do with stopping distance.
Back to parent post - High tire presure also affects ride quality (stiffness) and handling (due to lateral stiffness).

To be honest, this might have been worth something if the drive was anything other than a Maxtor.
Regardless of brand, it is worth the cost of a used drive, minus the time/expense of pulling the drive off of the contraption.
