Please elaborate on your poor experience. I've managed AIX deployments since v3 came with support for the Power platform and I've only seen steady improvement over the years. Like any Unix distro, it has its quirks (but AIX at least documents it!).
Good point but you missed what the parent article said. IBM Workplace is set to replace Notes so users won't have to struggle using Notes under Wine. IBM has been testing an internal IBM Workplace pilot under linux for a while now. The folks I know partciplating in the pilot say the Workplace pilot a good start towards moving off of a Notes client.
Here's to wishful thinking:)
Dude, get your story straight. NAV does not run 14 processes (I got it running at work and at home) and I can identify 4 NAV processes running at about 24 MB. I don't use NPC but I've seen others people running it and it does consume alot more memory/processes. So be it NPC is a resource hog but don't knock NAV, it is not a terrible antivirus product by itself afterall.
I strongly disagree with your statement of how badly NAV runs. I've used Norton AV since 2001 on my home and work systems (work required it, so I purchased it for my home use). NAV has run on old Pentium II/III chips running 128 MB of ram with no issues or poor performance. It doesnt hog memory (24MB being used in my process list, this does not qualify as a hog) and it never hogs CPU cycles except when it runs a virus scan (even then I set the CPU priority to high).
I've never used AVG/Adaware etc so I can't say NAV is a better solution than those two combined, but I can say that NAV (not the norton internet security suite) is a good AV product and I would promote using it.
Nice post. I didn't know you could do this during an install but am eager to try it out on a machine exposed directly to the internet (no firewall/router protection).
Mod parent up (no more points, sorry!).
True but the effect of the patches will be on a far great audience suceptable to certain nasty flaws/worms/corrupt media files etc. I'm not saying that Linux/Mac patches aren't important, but the scale to which MS patches effect hundreds of 1000's corporate and home users is a big deal. I personally feel this should be broadcasted with hopes of creating better awareness for patching any OS being used at home/work.
The thing is he probably would NOT have done this if he were in Singapore. He would have known the punishment as being severe and the chance of getting off with a lesser sentence would be highly unlikely.
My thoughts are that this kid stole for the sake of doing it while thinking the absolute worst that could happen if he got caught would be a slap on the wrist.
First, sort your inbox by subject. Oh, I forgot. YOU CAN'T. Well, let me take that back. You can if you simply follow these simple instructions...
What the hell are you talking about? You can sort by subject, atleast in version 6.0 and above (I'm at 6.5) by clicking hte subject title and it works. Sure if your running some archaic 4.5 LN client it probably wont work but any later version of LN works fine.
Oh, and the feature I like the best is the pop-up dialog that tells you you have new mail.
Its a freaking option like anything else. if you dont like it, Click File->Preferences->User Preferences->mail->General and then uncheck "show pop up"
So you click to make that go away, switch over to LN to read the new mail and it's not there... Oh, yes, that's right, you have to press F9 to actually download the email to your client, even after being notified by an obnoxious popup that you have new mail.
Dude, make a local freaking replica of your server copy. Why the hell are you running off the server copy anyway? If you run off the server replica and not a local replica, you get this issue. Once you or your scheduled replication runs, the server copy gets placed locally and voila, no need for F9!
I agree that the UI is one of the most clunky/unintuitive things I've dealt with.
I'm no LN fanboy but just bear in mind that LN has options that can be changed!

Too bad so sad. He gets what he deserves.
winmx doesn't work anymore!
