Yes, Google's scanning your email, but they aren't reading it...
1. Is Google reading my email?
No. Google scans the text of Gmail messages in order to filter spam and detect viruses, just as all major webmail services do. Google also uses this scanning technology to deliver targeted text ads and other related information. This is completely automated and involves no humans.
I fully agree. The "Americanization" of BBC shows is WRONG. Have you seen NBC's version of "The Office"? IT IS TERRIBLE. The timing that made the UK version work so well has been completely dumb'd down for the US populace, just to make a few bucks. Its sad.
On the other hand, I'd really like to go see "Oracle 8.5 The Complete Reference", especially if it was in Mandarin with subs.
I'm certainly not planning on retiring on my Social Security money, but I'd like to get it none the less. It comes out of my paycheck twice a month, so why not want to collect eventually? We're all ardent about getting back our tax money each year, how is Social Security tax any diffrent?
He's got this one square on the head. I bought a Gameboy Advance copy of Super Mario Advance 4 from a seller "Junogame" from Hong Kong on ebay last month that was a fake. Its a blatant bootleg, with the name "Nintondo" on the back, bummer, but it works so so in the GBA, and the kids are happy.
As for shipping, it was only $5 US for AirMail from Hong Kong and only took 15 days to reach me, not too bad.
Netware was very stable, and very easy to manage from a sysadmin perspective. Especially pre-Netware 5. In my experience, it was a robust networking and directory services package that enabled Windows to work (relatively) seamlessly better than Windows could do it. That's the caveat though, Microsoft's networking schema evolved and Windows NT 4 especially was the beginning of the end for Novell's flagship product. Once Windows could natively do what you previously needed a "Client" to do it was pretty much over. Microsoft's transition to TCP/IP was much smoother than Novell's away from IPX/SPX
I miss Zenworks and the Novell Application Launcher that could be used as an explorer/program manager replacement, making deployment and managing a ton of computers easy. LANDesk is a lackluster replacement, IMO.
Active Directory on the other hand is shaping up to be a very nice way to manage a bunch of computers, mix with Ghost and LANDesk, its almost the same as the old Netware suite. I think this is where Novell could make a real in-roads with Linux.
If Novell is successful in combining Linux seamlessly (no "client" needed, automatic domain/tree login with user rights, shares, printers...etc) with the GUI administration tools of Netware, I think they'd have something marketable. Unfortuantely, RedHat's nearly beaten them to the punch.
I think Novell is a lot like Netscape. Brand recognition is still there and Novell still has a decent reputation for solid products though the market share has decreased a thousand-fold. If they can bring something to the table that can be deployed easily, with out having to go through lengthy conversion and training processes for the people who have to deploy and manage it, Novell might just garner a bit more attention.
Its not a last ditch effort, but its damn close.
No, Leo and Kate were the backbone, and then along came "I'm so anti-mainstream, I listen to Drop Kick Murphys" Patrick. Terrible counter to Leo's at least interesting and informative (if you are a technical novice) schtick.
NOTHING is worse than the "Dark Tipper" or Chris Perrillo though.
TechTV's been dying since 2001, G4 just put the nails in the coffin.

Do you think they could make the sunglasses look like a gold banana clip?
It'd make more sense to wonder about Kismet. Netstumbler is a Win32 app, no Linux port to speak of, and it's not open source.

I grabbed it from Neowin before it went offline. Here's a link to it on rapidshare.de:

Stick my percentage back in my Social Security account please.

I've compiled it on my UltraSPARC running Solaris 10 using gcc 3.4.2 and GNU Make 3.80.n g :)

Package is coming soon on my Solaris blog

Did he mean Wooldoor Sockbat?
Hey cool, thats something I didn't know about Solaris... Though Firefox from blastwave.org is lightyears faster than Netscape on my Ultra 30.
