I spent the day in my jammies wrapped in a warm blanket in front of my computer. Nothing beats getting all your shopping done in one day without dealing with rude people and terrible traffic. God bless online shopping!
What about when lightning fries your whole machine - both drives? Or what about if you accidently erase an important file and you don't notice in time to recover it (assuming that's possible.) Offsite tape backups would address both of these problems.
Three words: Removable Drive Bay.
Tape is just too damned expensive. You can buy a few drives and a removable bay for less than a decent DAT drive and the necessary tapes. It's a lot faster, too. I started doing this about a year ago, and now I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner.
For the forseable future, gigabit to the desktop is more than 95% of users will need unless computing environments move to server-side VR operating systems that are fully streamed to a user with full motion and sound.
Someone brought this up in another article, so I can't take credit.
The settlement with the DOJ specifically allows Microsoft to exclude documentation of APIs that relate to security. This new initiative makes damn near anything in some way relate to security. Gotta love it.
All this discussion on ways to produce hydrogen makes me wonder. Did anything ever materialize in the research being done on the hydrogen producing algae?
Try pulling your head out of your ass before spouting off next time. Usenet posts don't prove squat. Have you ever even thought to look at the archives of the various *non-usenet* mailing lists?
And Netcraft, they only talk about servers running web sites. My firewalls don't run websites, my email server doesn't run a web site, my print server doesn't run a web site, my home computer doesn't run a web site...
The amount of utter shit that this guy spews out is amazing. How the hell did he get to be an editor? He just joined Katz in the elite ranks of my blocked authors.
YOU BASTARD! I just got the damn thing out of my head, and you have to go and bring it up again...

"Also NetBSD and FreeBSD both can be downloaded from ftp.cdrom.com and OpenBSD was oddly absent Hmmm?"
If I'm not mistaken, cdrom.com is in the U.S. Unless the state(s?) their servers are located in secede, export restrictions won't allow them to distribute it.

"It's the First-Ever 7-in-One Pocket Entertainment Center, and It Fits in the Palm of Your Hand!"
Why spend that kind of money on a pocket entertainment center when I've already got one that I can wrap my hand around?
Okay troll, I'll bite.

Yes, by all means, let's keep to the facts.
