I think I have misunderstood something for a long time. I was under the impression a few people created some protocols, another seperate group created some hardware, and yet another seperate group created some software. From this "pool" of moving technologies a "network" formed. When the "form" was opened to the public its popularity was underestimated.
There is something McAfee, Symantec, Apple, Microsoft, and all other operating system, anti-virus, anti-spyware, firewall, spam-filter companies should bear in mind. If operating systems were distributed by hardware makers, and they were properly designed from the beginning, these applications and companies wouldn't exist. These aftermarket companies are effectively parasites.
So you can bang your head into a wall after reading the howtos and specs thus creating jobs for people that repair walls. The cost will be about $8.50 an hour.
Someone from the administration that started the process of devaluing the US working class is now bitching?!? If that isn't enough irony then think about this.
People with high paying white collar jobs, IT et al, voted for these people. The Reagan administration destroyed the Unions, dismantled Federal Aid, devalued the automobile industry workers, devalued the textile workers, devalued the steel workers, spit in the face of the airline workers, shit on the air traffic control workers, and helped the republican party make God NOT County the focus of the government. What did the people with high paying white collar jobs do? They voted for him again. Then they voted for Bush. Then Bush didn't give them a tax cut. Then they bitched about Monica getting cum stains on her dress. Then they voted for the biggest pieces of shit to ever walk the face of the earth.
Now white collar workers are finding out what it is like to have someone taking their jobs away. Now they feel the "fuck you I don't give a rats ass about you life is about me bitch" mentality of the republican party.
Here is the REALLY funny part. The blue collar workers LOVE dubya. They know he is ass fucking them. But hey they are used to it! And! He is ass fucking white collar workers too! hahahahahaa!
Welcome to the boat Mr. Roberts. There is an ore right over there. Try not to lean too far over the edge. The shit is extra stinky today.
My observations as an old person by definition using your rules:
* Can they work with people?
* Can they dress well?
* Do they shower?
* Are they capable of staying after normal work hours every now and then to see to something getting finished?
* Are they sensitive to other people and their surroundings?
Black Hat Hacker. I am clean, charming, well dressed, always working, and my sensors are constantly monitoring people and places. I'm also perfectly cold and capable of taking every coin you own and are capable of borrowing. I will do this using my clean, charming, well dressed, and sensitive persona.
White Hat Hacker. I showered today because I wasn't up all night playing WOW. Jeans, T-shirt, piercings, tatoos, uncombed long hair and beard are my personality, get over it. People are either cool or annoying. I try not to be around too many of them at one time but there is nothing wrong with that. Most of my friends are on IRC and WOW anyway. As long as I bang out enough code to meet my boss' requirements I'm golden.
To begin with, I've been accused of being an AMD fanboy on this site. I thought I was partial to Alpha processors -because absolutely everything sucks in comparison:p cough sorry.
IMHO: The reason AM2 "is not a big hit" is because Core 2 Duo is a better processor. It is faster, runs cooler, and priced right. The reason it is faster is because AMD made a couple mistakes.
1) They bought ATI instead of re-tooling to.65nm. If the Turion X2 was built on.65nm us "AMD fanboys" would be saying things like "Core doo doo" and "Core 2 so over".
2) AMD couldn't implement AM2 with DDR3 support so they shouldn't have introduced it at all. The switch to AM2 was needed to consolidated their platform but until DDR3 the move is pointless. The memory makers beleived strong DDR2 sales were still possible because AMD hadn't moved to it yet.
AMD might have known they would loose the competitive edge with these descisions. They can't count on the nForce product; so, ATI was a good direction. Well, it is a direction anyway. For all I know the cost of re-tooling might have been much more expensive.
I have to give Intel props for the new dual core processor. The Pentium Pro was the last good processor they made. Until now that is. Pentium Pro was a fantastic processor. The new one looks every bit as good.
FanBoy Alert!!!
Don't get me wrong. I think the single core version "Core homo" is shit. Fortunately, it isn't as bad as the "Celery"
Brilliant! Now if there is no audio response to planned anti-social activities during specific times theives will know when specific cameras are being monitored. But then, there isn't any organized crime in the UK so why worry. Anyone... cough... a hit of this?
What I don't understand is why all the major TV players are signing on with Microsoft.
The same reason most gas stations don't sell diesel fuel, market share. Also, if a product is shipped with a popular OS the greater the chance stupid f'n people will assume it is the default or required software. If you have ever seen two dumb pieces of sh** argue over which icon, AOL or IE, is the internet without succumbing to the temptation to rip their... sorry.
My point: A perfect example is the number of people that call Internet Explorer "the internet".
Anyway. IMHO I think all of the grief the Dick Bushwaker administration has given Google has come full circle. Google decided to yank the stick out of the republicans hands and are positioning to give some blows back. The originator couldn't have dropped a better trail of crumbs.
Next time please use whole grains. I'm getting tubby.
As someone who did soho tech support, I hope you do better. The problems I ran into were: 1) They don't want to pay you. 2) They expect you to show up, fix all problems, and only be charged for fixing the one they called you for. 3) They expect you to make things work in a way they were not made to work. 4) They lie about what they have done to their machines to avoid additional charges. 5) When something hardware breaks after you fixed something software, and the reverse, they blame you and want it fixed for free.
I loved Space 1999! But then again, I liked all the shows I grew up with: Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Twilight Zone, One Step Beyond, Dark Shadows, Thriller, The Outer Limits, The Addams Family, The Munsters, Star Trek, The Invaders, The Prisoner, The Time Tunnel, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, My Favorite Martian, The Avengers, Bewitched, and Wild Wild West.

+5 Flame Bait.
You have it all wrong. Well, your post IS tripe but... If the article was simply, "Windows Vista isn't worth buying because it is crap so don't even consider it", it would be flame bait; and, perfectly correct as far as I'm concerned. Unfortunately for us, the previous article writen by this author listed things that he found acceptable. He obviously wasn't wearing his glasses that day.
A good rule of thumb for software purchasing is: If the label says Microsoft the GUI center is shit.
I tried to sell this idea in 2000. Everyone I talked to (Id, Apogee, Blizzard...) felt that the processor was capable of doing the work, an API would restrict developer decisions on which algorithms to use, and the value/cost wouldn't be within comsumer ranges. Not being one to patent every idea just in case someone else makes a success out of it, I wish them luck. I do, however, hope they open source the drivers. I started some GUI interface AI code for Enlightenment and would like to dig it up and work on it again.

So bottom line is Sophos doesn't have to install a root kit on your machine to protect it from malware so everyone else is pissed?
OOOH goodie let me rephrase that for you!

Why do I need IPSec on my home network?

I hear SCO has a nice distro. Maybe you should switch.
This begs the most abvious question. What does T-Rex tast like?
You make soup out of bones? Get it? T-Rex soup? Sigh, evermind...
You answered your own question. The PPro is the Xeon. At least until the P4 version. Which it too went down hill.

India/Texas.
India, Texas, What is the difference? High tech people from both our countries get low salaries and no respect from the US.

They're worthless, unless you can prove you don't need any money, and don't care about you unless they can make money from you.
Your correct 100% but I would have worded it "and don't care about you unless they can make the money instead of you".
I didn't know Hemos was Canadian.
Not if he came back as black sludge monsters!
Considering the number of Engineers that take thier car to a mechanic, I would have to say no. :p
What "bubble"? A fart would generate a bigger bubble!

No. This is a TOE card. The Engine for it is Linux. The point of the existence of TOE is what it does for layer 4.
