I hope you're just trolling/joking. Just in case you weren't..
If you rotate your Horizontal Cable Organizer by 90 degrees(from --- to | ), it will allow you to run cables vertically(yes, even if the product title has the word 'Horizontal' in it). Regardless of their name, those are indeed raceways. The brand name used might be "Cable Organizer" but they're the same. Here is an example. Raceways are available in many different sizes so don't be put off if that link I provided doesn't match the size you use. Feel free to whoosh me if you were joking.
Seriously.... at what point do they have to remove this shit from their site?
SCO is the owner of the UNIX Operating System Intellectual Property that dates back to 1969, when the UNIX System was created at AT&T's Bell Laboratories. Through a series of mergers and acquisitions, SCO has acquired ownership of the copyrights and core technology associated with the UNIX System.
Off topic here and I'm hesitant to say this; but IME, dousing is real. I shit you not, I watched my grandmother douse up at her cabin in the mountains. She not only flagged the x,y coords, but was within five or ten feet on the depth when they drilled the well(somewhere around 80' iirc). I consider myself a logical person who requires evidence to accept something.... but the well is still in use fifteen years later. Anecdotal, I know.
The cabin is in southern Colorado in one of the drier areas towards the top of a valley. Doesn't rule out chance, but the odds at that location certainly would be lower.
More anecdote, but a very similar result at my current employer. FOSS was accepted by quietly proving itself in a small corner of a quiet department. Dokuwiki, then LAPP. Now the higher ups are inquiring on savings for building a FOSS based cms for company wide use instead of server 2k8/sharepoint. Grass roots.
Trying not to be alarmist as this looks like a pretty specific case and while Sun was content to look the other way while Oracle isn't. It probably wouldn't hurt to discuss possible ports/alternatives. OO has always been more than good enough and the ubiquity given by java meant no gtk/qt squabbles. How would things go if Oracle decided to stop spending any resources on it? The license is LGPL. What about patents/CRs? Could someone fork oo or re-implement in another language without legally running afoul?
And no, being a corner case myself; google docs is not the answer.
Considering the reliability of Windows...I'd probably choose to deploy one of the FOSS HMI systems over the commercial ones.
It doesn't matter if you build a fortress- if you build the same on a foundation of shifting sands.
Not if your FOSS HMI could only read half of the tags needed (N and F) and the functionality of writing values to the PLC was listed on their webpage as being slated for implementation in 2004(which was the latest news).
I thought the same thing when I first observed my company's control system.... The answer was obvious when I looked for a FOSS alternative. Features that were common in the early nineties were far off in the latest stuff I could find.
With a few notable exceptions (ABEL-abandoned, PyOPC-active, TuxPLC-abandoned); Industrial FOSS is severely lacking. Not a rip on FOSS...the industrial side is pretty sucky when it comes to standards and openness. OPC is a great example of an "open industry standard" that isn't. Lots of proprietary #$%. Meh; this ended up a semi-rant. I'm out.
Storefronts located in eastern Europe/China? Else rotating through different payment processors as they are shut down? I tend to agree with you though. In theory it should be a simple thing to shut down a seemingly fixed target. The fact that they haven't been shut down yet implies that it's not as simple as it sounds.
Very similar situation where I work. We have a system that is dependent upon a specific Arcnet ISA card . We use mobos from Itox(no affiliation) without issue. Intel signalling the end of PCI really isn't all that troubling.
Third parties will continue to manufacture boards for years to come.
Upgrade went, well mediocre. Upgrade failed partially into installation of packages. Had to run some (since forgotten) dpkg command to clean up. Restarted upgrade. This time it completed.
After installation was complete upon successful boot everything appeared to work for the most part with the exception of X. Frame rate while sitting at the desktop with no apps running and compiz disabled was terrible... around 5-20 fps. All sorts of corruption / artifacts in the ui. While trying to get online to check launchpad, system hard locked.
Restored my image of Jaunty and all is well.
This was probably the issue I had with X. To be fair it's an upstream.
I hope all the Ubuntu users *snip* who formed their opinions of PA back then will give PA a second chance on a well integrated setup.
I'm sorry, but the problems aren't resolved. I've been running karmic for about three weeks now and have experienced the same issues with PA that I had with earlier releases of Ubuntu. For example: flash in a web page can basically disable audio on the box. lsof shows firefox as the culprit and killing ff, followed by a full restart of PA & Alsa will fix the issue temporarily. If I something else is actively using sound (audacious for example), the issue doesn't seem to manifest.
Removing pulse and using plain alsa/esd prevents the issue from occurring as well. This can be the fault of Ubuntu but the result is still the same: I have fewer issues if I remove PA.
I suppose my point is this. As a user, I don't care if the buffering is awesome. I don't care if the framework supports modern desktop features. I do care if my sound works without having to jump through hoops repeatedly. I don't hate PA, and will continue to try it out with new releases. But I will continue to remove it after having issues.

Thank you. The links are much appreciated.

Interesting. Is there a specific name for this method of wrapping (besides waxed linen/wax string wrap)?
Hmm...

Better car analogy... If I let you borrow my car with the knowledge that you habitually hit parked cars and ran..
I don't know that I'd bet on being safe when an owner sued.

Seriously? You don't think it's broken? I'm using Firefox 6 and it's not pretty.
6!? Jesus. Figured they'd at least wait until labor day to drop that deuce.

The spreadsheet can't have more than 65535 rows!
oO is sadly just not as good, and it isn't until you lose 100,000 rows
Wait... Is this one of those 'math never solved anything' moments?

Good info, thanks all for clearing that up for me.

Thirded. WSS is also great for locking down desktops for kiosk type use.
