    Oracle drops support for Netware in favor of Linux.

    Novell buys Symian.

    Oracle adopts Linux internally.

    And the peasants danced.

  9. Re:While @ the office? on Getting Back Into Shape While At The Office? · · Score: 1

    Agreed - I don't think the day has ended until after a stop at the gym. Sedentary jobs like ours require that we do something extra, be it weights, biking, running, whatever.

  14. I Just Talk with My Hands on Public Confused by Tech Lingo · · Score: 1

    By the time I finish waving my arms around in the air to signify where the ethernet connections run and mimicking the motions of placing a cd in a drive or signing on using a keyboard the users have begun to back away. Long before I actually begin describing the shape of the machine to which I am referring by using quick hand-edge slicing motions through the air in front of me they have moved into another row or far enough down the hall that I can just walk away.

    Funny, they never ask me to clarify my use of jargon.

  16. Re:nt4? on Microsoft Pulls Plug for Support on NT4 · · Score: 1

    Well, it's all well and good to suggest that a copany use X instead of Y, but when a company already uses software from Y's vendor they will probably require a pretty good reason to change to X. Like Microsoft's licensing costs, for example.

    We use the term "partner". We have the same goals - make/save money for the enterprise.

  18. Re:Measuring ROI on Managing IT As An Investment · · Score: 1

    Ack! That is a nightmare to administer. This is why IT has to have corporate-wide standards or interoperability goes out the window and each of those groups ends up repeating work that was probably already done for another group.

  19. Re:PHBs will always... on Managing IT As An Investment · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't the sales budget pay for at least some fo that cost?

    More like all of it. If their department is consuming all the added resources, their department should foot the bill for the entire upgrade.

    What gets complicated is when you have multiple lines of business sharing services at a location. One line of business wants (NEEDS!!!) the world's greatest server and the others don't want to pay for it. So you have to negotiate who will use what and who will pay what.

    From:

    Senator Hatch married the former Elaine Hansen of Newton, Utah. They are the proud parents of six children and have twenty grandchildren.

    I wonder how many of his kids' and grandkids' PC's would be wrecked?
