The P series servers are not even close to big iron. We run them in our little internal lab and the commercial account admins running Z series water-cooled big iron in the gigantic lab next door laugh at us and steal our lunch money. We use puny 6.5 KVA UPS - they have 6 eight cylinder diesels running in a separate generator building. Let's not even TALK about the locker room incidents!
My band, Johnny Roy and the RubTones (johnnyroy.com) has our COMPLETE CD for download and streaming on our site for FREE. Thousands of bands post their material on SoundClick.com for free listening. The bands are paying cash out of our very shallow pockets so you can listen to us for FREE. Please, go ahead and be our guests!
Talk about tying a porkchop around your neck, geez!
The parent explains exactly how this will be handled - I telecommute for a multi-national, branch offices are established in every state for tax purposes.
The key issue here is our definition of our American culture. Are we a nation of laborers, or are we a nation of shareholders? Laborers want the right to work. Shareholders want profit. Our national demographic majority is shifting from laborers to shareholders as the baby-boomers age. I know, I am one - and my change in personal priorities in the face of escalating "global-resourcing" gave me pause. Am I more politically motivated about keeping my job, or having a fat 401K when I retire? My friends and family's opinions map pretty consistantly to this age curve. Do we become like other countries in the world and impose wage tarrifs and quotas, or do we allow the corporate free-fire zone that the U.S. has become to determine the lifestyle our citizens can anticipate?

But then where will we keep the bodies?
