As a company owner, this thing is so sad. But on the techinical aspect, ReiserFS has better numbers in i/o, read and write that ext3, but many, many times, the way Hans conducts himself, lead to more and more people running away from ReiserFS.
Novell have just switched from reiser to ex3 at opensuse 10.1 or 10.2, I can't remember well, and this was the last "mayor" distribution supporting it. Any way, his company was loosing value, even more, his company is more like a one man company that a group of people. I doubt Namesys has CMMI, or follows any structured development strategy, so, buying a company whos best product is the sole creation of his owner is a very, very bad move.
I remember when was a "common practice" to remove or glue floppy disks at schools...
But USB pose a different trouble. There ARE useful usb devices, like mouses and keyboards...
And further more... there are phones and digital cameras, and even thos 5 in 1 memory readers that can be used to substract information or leak viruses...
or even worse, specific purpouse programms, likt the used at the "audit"...
And also one thing I wonder, is what Antivir was "protecting" the machine? Is nt antivir doing heuristics to look after strange things at the computer, like "something" trying to get the addressbook?
Maybe we need to take a "sovietical" approach to education. Identify habilities at early age, and try to enforce them. But keeping the rigth track of the amount of people being enforced, having a lot of dalis but no einsteins are no good...
Educational models should be designed to identify and polish your skills, not to create zombies that all learn the same...
Ajax and DOM, used with wddx is a good way to keep MVC model.
Soap can be used to extend the interface layer. Ajax calls to wddx objects are neat, and also php has <a href="http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.wddx.php">w ddx functions</a>, so having to communicate webpage with php very easy.
With javascript + dom control, you can process all the information you gather from ajax request to php.
I´ve working with ajax + php + wddx all day, since 1.5 months. I used to keep a MVC using a post to a Controller then a redirect to the next viewer if success or redirect to previus viewer with error flag at session.
Now I´m working with real mvc, the viewer only has the enough logic to display the info sent by wddx response. The controller is just an interface for set the values to call an object.
I actually think, that security must be geared towards use...
For example, ethereal is a tool to analize packages, I really dont care much about it's security, is a analisis tool, not a preventive or perimetral tool...
Im much more concerned about linux kernel security, apache, dns, squid, sendmail, snort and all other tools used to provide a service, which have 24x7 hours open ports...
And for example, OpenOffice, Konqueror security should be biased to avoid unauthorized contact between the application and the host or network...
And of course, the normal attacks from coding error should be automatically asserted...
Sourceforge should offer that service to all the codebase it has...
Each tier should have it's own security, maybe everything should have a microkernel design...
Trying to secure tiers, is much more easy and mesurable than trying to make everything secure...The goal MUST be that: make everything secure, but meanwhile, each tier should be secure enough...
IBM is buying a lot from Novell, and not from redhat.
For example. Novell has this tiny distributions for Point Of Sale Hardware, called Novell SuSe Linux Point of Sal NSLPOS or NLSpos, it depends how you order the words.
IBM has a HUGE hardware POS, and they build IRES, IBM Retail Enterprise Solution on TOP of Novell`s NLSPOS
Also, Novell has support for the brand new OpenPower, Xseries and so on, also redhat, but the difference, is that, Redhat charges you by instance, and Novell charges you by hardware, and since IBM is preaching the "consolidate on big hardware using LPAR (hardware virtualization) on their machines, Novell offers a much more "from the book to the TCO financial benefits...
So I really think that Novell will survive and will have a huge market, more market than RedHat, they are not so cocky about them self as RedHat, Novell wants money, not fame...
The site looks good.. mod parent up informative...
There are screenshots at the site, for the Schematic screen, Component editor, Board editor, Module/Footprint editor, a 3d viewer (this looks sweet)...
Simple, Linux isnt cheap for opterons, powers, and "enterprise class distributions/support".
SuSe for OpenPower costs about 800 usd.
Redhat AES, the same, BUT, redhat charges you by installation, so, virtualization is more expensive with Redhat than SuSe.
Also, since IBMs OpenPower Machines, only runs on linux, they eat a chunk of market to aix (pseries), and even more, HPs Intanium and Opteron, run with linux, add this redhat/suse sales from Dell, and you will have a very and rich environment...
You still can always get a debian, yellowdog or something weirder to run on HP Opteron or IBM OpenPower, but why loose guarantee for a 25k-30k range machinery?
The Lars Penji LPC mud driver, and the 2.4.5 library used to have an editor. I tougth it was a "online editor" called ed, but it was really a "ONE line editor"... the first time I used it, it was a pain, but later on, I get used, and it was very fast to edit files and make changes...
And I think I m not so old...:P but then again, Im talking about muds...

I hope he gets some money for his company.
Using MyISAM databases is like using dbase with a sql wrapper, that kind of security u have.
I u want all tne neat features of a full rdbms, use InnoDB instead.
Compraing, for example Mysql MyISAM vs Postgress is a huge mistake, Mysql Innodb and MaxDB are almost a diferent RDBMS from Mysql.
lol, lmao, etc :)
You can still build a new kernel for your distribution.
You can still maintain you distribution.
If your application canot be upgraded, you are using an out of date, unsupported application.
So you have a not relaible software provider, who isn't interested in keeping your bussines up to date.
Be aware of that.
The link is really "fun" and usefull from a administrative point of view.
You can spam you boss with this text...
Is't written very technically...
They are so cute!!!!!!!
Isnt there a Patehtic +1 mod point?
There are few others missings fronts.
... sooner o later they will need to give up some fronts...
For example encarta vs wikipedia.
Linux on Xbox vs Xbox.
Linux on Playstation vs Xbox.
Compiere vs I don't remember the name of the "Ms-ERP"...
What other fronts, O yes!
Linux+Opie vs Windows CE
Surely even with that all money, MS cannot stand so many fronts

Wiiere the world is going?
The video at the website is very illustrative.
:)
The quality is good and shows what are the thing the robot can do.
Its movements still are corky, and not ver smooth. The tip camera always was seeking for coke
Now, the next step would be to have 2 or more of this things working together...

Ipod -> Chair -> pain
Google -> Chair -> pain
Aren`t we, technology advocates, above this kind of faithfull belive, and use more rational tougths and critical tougths?
I sure know that, sometimes, only very few sometimes, almost never, we the "techs" tend to be fanatics...
But this is getting creepy, GPL3 is just a license, to protect information, over one simple filosophical belive: Free of information.
Hell, reading about flocks, faith, damn... what`s next? To adore the holy chip of Intel?

Redhat, seems to seek for fame... and money...
The performance difference between "consumer" laptops as dell and top-noch laptop as mac, the comparsion ends to price and hardware compatibility.
I cannot whine about Linux drivers support on MAC, I even have the modem working, most things that linux con laptop never works...
And ofcourse, the "coolness factor"... but, I think that the other laptops manufacturers will jump to the coolness factor...
Lets se... But for now. No new macbook for me...
The site looks good.. mod parent up informative...

Preety nice...
There is no real hype for ps3, there are not "well brand games" to be on ps3..
They are 4 months till lauch, and still most people doesnt know what to expect of ps3, only a high introduction price...
I think marketing of ps3 is really losing its grip...
Many things are still missing...
Maybe this change to 7cores cell wasn`t a good idea...
