    Engraver is the answer!

  2. Re:Not News on Matt Smith Leaves "Doctor Who" · · Score: 1

    Baker is still my favorite Doctor.

  3. Re:This is why I will never trust cloud services on IT Pros Can't Resist Peeking At Privileged Info · · Score: 1

    I agree. We are the trusted people.

  4. Re:Professional licensure is what we need on Industry IT Security Certification Proposed · · Score: 1

    Agreed. I've been in the business 30+ years. I've taken the certs for fun (company pays them and thought they would impress me) and passed all of them and no, they didn't impress me. I tell people none of certs impress me with the possible exception of CCIE.

  5. Re:Easily explained. on Only 39% Curse At Their Computers? · · Score: 1

    I found that most of those who I hang with swear at MS 99% of the time. Where the other 1% goes I have no clue.

  6. SAP will need higher fees now. on SAP Ordered To Pay $1.3 Billion To Oracle · · Score: 1

    SAP will need to raise their fees.... wait, they are already too high.

  7. Re:Oh, look! on TSA Wants You To Keep Your Seat, and Your Hands In Sight · · Score: 1

    I agree. I gave up flying years ago because the TSA and the airlines made flying such a pain in the ass. If I can't drive I don't go. Screw both of them.

  8. Re:Moons on Why Do We Name Servers the Way We Do? · · Score: 1

    We also use moons (small company). Our main server is Luna. Most of others are named after moons of Jupiter and Saturn with the exception of Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon. A few years ago we had an Exchange project shoved up our ass so we named those servers using moons of Uranus.

  9. sad day in the tardis on David Tennant Stands Down From "Doctor Who" · · Score: 1

    Sorry to see him leave. I'll wrap myself in my Doctor Who scarf and be sad for a while. He's done a great job as The Doctor.

  10. What about "The Adolescence of P-1" on Top 20 Geek Novels · · Score: 2, Informative

    Great 70's book on a computer program taking over. Worth a read.

  11. Re:It worked here. on Windows XP SP2 Still Rough Around the Edges · · Score: 1

    I looked at internet options under 'security' (custom level) and under 'advanced' and didn't see that choice. thanks for the try, it's appreciated.

  12. Re:It worked here. on Windows XP SP2 Still Rough Around the Edges · · Score: 1

    try running something from a network share. If it's not digitally signed (not much is) you get a %^*&%$* message asking your permission each and every time. Please feel free to enlighten me if you know how to get around this.

  13. Re:Easy one. on Does Your Company Pay For Broadband? · · Score: 1

    agreed, i work 4 days a week a home and things do get blurred. I work nuts hours at time but the quality of life is wonderful.

  14. Gallifrey here I come! on Doctor Who Comeback · · Score: 1

    Maybe now I can return to Gallifrey and hang out with the High Council.

  15. Re:Great Christmas :) on Merry Christmas · · Score: 1

    Nice....
    Kids got me an 802.11b access point for the house and a dwl-650 for the laptop. Nice gift for an old geek like me (47yrs old).

  16. Re:Home Office Experiences on Full-Time Telecommuting -- Does It Work? · · Score: 1

    I work at home 3 days a week and go into the office the other 2 days (Tue & Thu). It works well, you still need the interaction with the other employees on a face-to-face basis. I take care of the servers (Novell,NT,*nix) and routers where I work and most of my work is remote anyway to our plants. so who cares where I'm physically at when I do it.

  17. Re:I want! on My Christmas Wishlist Monitor · · Score: 1

    Can't Rob just put it on his expense report?
