That's why you need business support. You call them up, give them Type/Serial, FRU number for the disk, and 4 hours later a courier arrives with your new hard disk.
For us, as an IT service provider, a single license of Vista Home Basic costs 105.50 CHF, that's 85 US$.
We do not have any special rebates, so that's just the _STANDARD_ price. The chance that it costs Dell a bit more than half the sum we have to pay is very likely.
Most acutally couldn't get someone to have kids with them, even if they tried. I don't know about the US, but here in europe this would usually easily be done by picking up young girls in clubs, spending a bit of money on a few drinks, and then going to a hotel with them.
Not a lovey-dovey relationship, but you would still have offspring.
There's no people with having children. It's just that many of those people who do have children made uninformed decisions.
Having children is like leasing a car. Leasing a car is a commitment for, e.g. 4 years. You will need to pay for gas, the leasing payments, the insurance, the car service, etc. Lot's of stuff to pay for. You will need to make sure that you have enough money to pay for the car for the full four years, otherwise it can get very, very ugly.
When you have children, you don't get a 4 year commitment. You get a commitment of AT LEAST 18 years. And you can't just put the children in the garage when you don't have time for them, no, for the first few years they need constant supervision.
There's nothing wrong with people having children, it's just that they need to make sure that they can AFFORD having children. Which is pretty hard to get right, because prediciting the next 18 years in your life can get kinda difficult - heck, it's even difficult with just 4 years.
The problem with people who do have children is that they like to blame other people for their uninformed decisions. Companies don't have to cater to their needs (they can, of course, if they think that this makes their shareholders more money).
Of course, on a global scale, children are very important to continue our society. But is there a need for this to concern me? No, because when this problem reaches it's peak, i will probably be already dead. There are other people, namely politicians, who get paid a heck a lot of money to care about these problems and offer solutions.
The only 'special treatment' men get is in divorce courts where their wife is allowed to take the house, the kids, and most of their income for the rest of their life. Marrying without a proper contract is idiocy. In fact, there isn't much need to marry, except some tax cuts maybe.
When you're talking HA, you're always talking "big money". If you want a fully redundant infrastructure, you might have to start using commercial operating systems (like Novell Linux, RedHat, or even other Unix-based commercial OS like Solaris or AIX). The problem here is support. Full HA environments are incredibly complex, and you will need to make very, very sure that everything works well.
I wrongly implemented HA system will have less uptime than a 499US$ Dell with a single ATA drive.
Entry level SANs using iSCSI are available at quite affordable prices. Look at HPs and IBMs (e.G. the DS300). Even the entry models allow you to use MPIO.
The problem is that the school is missing the point.
Let's ignore wikipedia for a moment, because there were a lot of people that made better arguments about the censorship issue than i ever will.
See, if students use their school time to post "whiney blogs", then the problem isn't that they have unlimited access to the internet.
The problem is that they're not trying to use their time productively. I can't tell you why that's the case, but the problem isn't the internet access - it's students without interest in learning. Shutting down internet access will fight the symptom, but they won't weed out the root cause.
Laws are always a considerations, when you're thinking of doing something. Let's take your example of a fund.
Basically, i have two ways to make money with your fund:
a) legal way Manage your fund, get my commission of x%
Earnings: x% of your fund Risk: 0 Potential Hazard: none
b) illegal way Transfer your money offshore, try to get away with it.
Earnings: 80% of your fund, minus the money laundering fees Risk: x Potential Hazard: Prison/Jail
Based upon how big "x" exactly is, i might do one thing or the other. It just depends on what the net result is/can be.
I personally think that living by the law is easier, but you earn way less that way. But there are of course other people which are much more interested in higher earnings.
If you have not raised children, especially if you are not at a place in your life where you are personally ready to accept the responsibilities of parenting, then why on Earth do you feel you have something important to contribute on the topic of parenting? I was at the receiving end of parenting for a good amount of years.
Many parents, aged 30-40 have completely disconnected from our schools, and life. I've started to see the same effect with me, and my younger siblings. Even though my brother is only 8 years younger than me, things have changed quite a bit.
I have no idea how old you are, but if you're around 30/40, than you have absolutely no idea how todays world looks from a childs angle.
Sorry, but you sound like a fundamentalist nutcase to me. I will try to argue my point anyway, though it probably is pointless.
Right and wrong are black and white. To say the are gray is to have no morals at all. Life is far to complex to be able to break it down into black and white.
Every case should be judged on it's own, and your moral should be flexible enough to allow you to do the right thing. Whatever that is.
My teenage boys are to leave any location where 'M' games are played. They understand this rule and follow it. I'm sure they do. I'm just thankful that i didn't have parents like you.
Is it possible to mug someone over the internet? No. Is it possible to rape someone over the internet? No. Is it possible to stab someone in the face over the internet? Sadly, no. (courtesy of a bash.org quote)
Kids need to be educated about the dangers of the internet (scams, phishing, paedophiles, or whatever else you find threatening). Chatrooms, being a subset of the former, can also be dangerous, not just for the reasons stated, A paedophile can't do anything except writing words and sending pictures/videos. That's it. He can't touch the kid.
Of course there's the whole invitation to a dark alley thing. But it's only an invitation. Nothing happened yet.
but also that children can use them to wall you out of their lives altogether. Starting from a certain age, this is completely normal, and will happen anyway. Technology isn't a factor in this.
They can do that with physical, face-to-face friendships, but there is even less accountability in a chatroom. Probably because in a chatroom nothing can happen.
Many of the tell-tale signs that a person is lying do not surface in plain text. It's just much more complicated than in real life - yes. That's exactly why it's a very good training. Spotting inconsistencies in others stories, and believing anything until you've verified it is a necessity in life.
Trust should be earned, be it real life or a chat. And in chat, you always have a very safe distance.
Is that an absolute? Do you believe in absolutes, like the religious do? You are being dogmatic, after all. It's hard to say what is absolute, and what not. Reality is constantly changing, and constantly shifting. You have to adapt yourself to the world all the time.
As such, there are not absolutes - but their are rules of thumb, viable for some period in time.
the State has rendered our lives almost purposeless. You're telling me it isn't? In the long run, life is purposeless. If the only purpose for your life you can muster is caring for your parents, then you're living a very sad life.
Putting the 'real world' in front of them before they have reached the age of autonomy is asking for trouble. Why? Children have to learn that moral values that are thought to them by school and by religion are not absolute. They are just rules, to be bend and broken if the situation demands.
The "expose them to the real-world dogma" is all nice and progressive and seemingly commonsense, but it is almost certainly unnatural. A lot of things we humans do are very, very unnatural. Like social welfare. That doesn't mean it's wrong.
The other side is that children need to learn how to solve math problems and spell words, and some won't do this if you give them unlimited video games, movies and television. Agreed. I'm not saying that children don't need any boundaries in their life - they do. I'm just saying that cutting them off from certain content isn't going to help matters.
I am completely comfortable letting them draw their own conclusions, just as I did, while I keep their video game time to 75 minutes a day That's perfectly fine, children need rules and boundaries in order to get a halfway decent path ahead - goals are very important in life.
News compress the bad things of the world into tiny 15min action shows, what might be shown might be real to some degree, but its shown totally out of proportion. Planes might crash once a week, but thousands of them also land perfectly safely, news however doesn't show that, same with all the other bad stuff that happens. Perfectly true. And this is exactly what parents should teach their children. That they understand reality, and are able to put it into proper dimensions.
I wouldn't let my child watch news for quite a while, since there is really nothing you can learn from it when you don't even have a basic understanding of how the world works. This gives you a bit of a chicken-and-egg type of problem - at least for me newspapers are what gave me interest into history and politics.
Now to some degree this is of course good, since well, its all fake and thus you can enjoy it without feeling all that bad, but on the other side I would prefer my child to learn facts about war from a good history book, not from a video game. You don't learn from video games - you play them to have fun. A child needs to learn that video games are completely disconnected from reality, and this is becoming more important as graphics get better and better.
The world is a big and scary place. And children need to learn that too, and fast.
There's nothing worse than isolating children from reality, because it will start hitting them in the face one day or another. Let them watch the news, play video games, etc. It can't hurt.
When they go to school they'll need to learn the rules anyway, in order to survive (not literally, of course).
The world is full of sick, twisted, demented elements. Video games, and also the internet are a very safe approach - because you can't be harmed. Chatrooms can help children to spot lies - and this is always a helpful skill out there.
Sheltering kids has never helped them.

So you're saying that women need special protection or what?
Wasn't there something about "gender equality"?
It supports BOTH platforms. Windows AND Mac. How much better can it get?
Support contracts and supported hardware isn't.

Video games are part of our reality.
But they do not depict reality accurately (well, not all - those that do, Simulators etc. are usually not violent).
You make it sound like it's somehow wrong to choose the best solution for a problem based upon the various advantages/disadvantages of each solution.
Isn't that what we have laws for?
