BP is going to pay? I don't think they are going to take it out of BP employee salaries. Let's face it, if BP pays then the costs get passed on to the customers. Whatever BP doesn't pay will get passed tot he US taxpayers.
If BP doesn't pay, then should their business licenses be revoked in all affected states? in the US?
Businesses should only allow outbound SMTP for designated mail servers. We have all outbound SMTP routed through the same anti-spam/anti-virus service that scans our incoming email. We are alerted pretty quickly if an internal client is sending spam out through our system. Typically we have found the users get phished and then the spammers use their creds via a webmail client.
ISPs should only allow it from customers by request.
I have a 1st gen iPhone. Now with all of the options out there now I just can't see sticking Apple unless they surprise us all. On top of the HD specs I would like to see a Pro model aimed at office professionals (I know that is so not Apple). This Pro model needs a memory card slot, a physical keyboard, a replaceable battery or longer life, better camera, etc.
There is definitely a market for the device and would somewhat fit in with Apple's other Pro products.
OK so part of me says well why don't all of us start off by blocking all IP addresses assigned to China... oh wait isn't that what China wants to do anyway? Block their people from getting to the Internet... kinda sorta.
It might not be a bad idea for networks with no intention of communicating with China.
Bingo! I believe MS has already banned PSTs in house. The writing is on the wall where I work. Too many times PST get corrupted which turns into support nightmares for the VIP customers. Once the VIPs (they sign the checks) are sold on getting rid of PSTs and expanding the mailbox sizes they will pay the bill.
Voicemail via most phones does suck (iphone is an exception). Can't you check your voicemails at work via your email client? We have been doing it for years and once you give someone the UM client you better not ever take it away.
Django looks very cool but it is not a CMS and should not really be compared to them. From the Django FAQ:
Is Django a content-management-system (CMS)?
No, Django is not a CMS, or any sort of "turnkey product" in and of itself. It's a Web framework; it's a programming tool that lets you build Web sites.
For example, it doesn't make much sense to compare Django to something like Drupal, because Django is something you use to create things like Drupal.
Of course, Django's automatic admin site is fantastic and timesaving - but the admin site is one module of Django the framework. Furthermore, although Django has special conveniences for building "CMS-y" apps, that doesn't mean it's not just as appropriate for building "non-CMS-y" apps (whatever that means!).
That may or may not be true. They offered a good VM product for the Enterprise before anyone else. Now that others are getting into the game (mostly MS for Windows servers) VM needs to keep being innovative and offer what the others do not.
MS is still playing catch up but at some point their product will be good enough to grab the market share. Once virtualization is the norm VMWare will be left with filling the niche markets.
Look at it this way. Citrix beat MS to market with their Terminal Services solution. MS now has TS built in to their server product(licensed from Citrix I think). It is good enough for many of their customers but Citrix is still around and offers solutions for the needs not met by MS in that area.

oops ... There's NOT an app for that!
There's NOT and app for that. :-)
I guess that means no Leisure Suit Larry for the iPhone. Right now someone is porting LL to Android.

Is the problem with the Adobe Reader program itself or the file format? Do third party PDF readers have the same security issues?

That's the HOS ... Hollywood Operating System. I can't take credit for the term. A friend told me about it many years ago.
I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often.
Maybe it does. Hmmmm....
Frameware ? :-)
Genius is a relative term. Consider the average Mac user and well .... I KEED, I KEED.
So your motto is "Work harder, not smarter"? :-)

Yeah like activate the DHCP server and start handing out bogus addresses. Don't even get me started.
Is the rumored soon to be released Verizon Droid good enough?

What about bloggers that are not U.S. citizens?
Obligatory - There is no fix for stupid.

20-25 percent efficient. OK but compared to what for conventional vehicles?
