wont buy it. hate ATI and when AMD bought them, they absorbed ATI's taint. this solution is really only good for servers anyways, when people dont care about video. and, since server solutions can get away with uber low end graphics chips, why bother?
enthusiasts will be wanting to upgrade seperately...defeating the purpose.
It's comical, because your an idiot.
All that installed crap is there because Dell installs it, not because OMGZERS windows is the suck.
Blame Dell, not MS.
Then maybe you need to upgrade your IT department. Ive been working in various sized orgs for a long time and rarely have seen Microsoft based progblems. The MS system that gives us the most trouble is exchange.
DNS? Active directory? IIS? Sharepoint? Rock solid. As far as trouble with individual machines, I think you will most of those are user and application based...which have ZIP to do with the OS. Try implementing a more robust policy for what your users can and can't do with their machines.
Hate all you want. Im not a big fan either of MS to be honest, I just get tired of hearing the ignorant bullshit all the time.
You Linux nerds crack me up. You still think its 1996 or something and everyone still uses windows 95 because of the "OMGZErs the windows crashes all the times!" For people who claim to be on the cutting edge of technology, you sure as hell seem to have missed the last 10 years of OS history.
UMM NO.
Windows 2000 and XP are VERY stable. I literally cannot remember the last time ive seen a blue screen, or had the OS crash on me where I needed to reboot, and ive been working in IT for 15 years. Yes, ive had apps fail, but you shut them down, and relaunch them. Yes, occasionaly an MS update will require a reboot...so what? I won't get into my personal experiences with Linux and fun times involving driver frustrations and dll hell.
Now I haven't used Vista so I wont comment on it, but this whole "Windows crashes all the time it sucks!" just shows you ignorant you really are. You wanna convert more people to Linux? Stop acting like 10 year old children arguing over the best cartoon show.
you've obviously never tried to raise a child with serious impediments like schizoprhenia.
wishing the child had never been born does not make one evil, only human. and how do you draw the conclusion of "denied sympathy?"
simply because he voiced a desire any parent in that situation might also voice?
Im nearly immune to the posion ivy/oaks families too. I can see it on my skin if ive been exposed, but they dont itch or bother me. Ill ask my mom if she was ever exposed to poison Ivy while preggers.
if your theory is correct, then I wish I could go back in time and surround my mom with stupid people, because I am deathly allergic to them now.
This one is what...10 years old or so? I remember seeing a much larger version of it, when Borg Gates was on the enterprise viewscreen...Google scavenger hunt!
I've developed with Notes for 11+ years (I know I feel sorry for me too), and while the UI is gruesome, and it has plenty of quirks, its great for rapid solution development. You can do almost anything with it, fairly quickly. If anything, the reason I think people hate it so much is precisely because it allows just any wanker to come in and crap out a solution without thinking about it. Its WAY to flexible for anyone but experienced developers to do anything reliable with it. 99% of the headaches in a Notes environment are due to admins or developers setting up stuff they don't have an idea how to really do...or like my company, we have 2000+ deployed seats, hundreds of databases all developed by different people, all supported by ONE guy, part time about 10 hours a week. Wow, no wonder theres so many problems.
If anything, its the poster child of why you *shouldn't* make it too easy for people to develop solutions...and why a solution that does everything does none of it *really* well.
I'm confused how to came to the conclusion that only big business will be able to afford to access the internet. Please enlighten me. Your drawing huge conclusions based upon a few carriers like AT&T and whomever crying about not making enough money to OMGZERS only Bill Gates can afford to chat or post online anymore.
Since when does making it easier for people to post volumes of useless crap all over the net a good thing?
YAY now with myspace integration! Blog more useless crap about your vapid life even faster! Upload pics of your ugly self with less hassle!
Am I alone, or does this whole Net 2.0 thing make others cringe too?
Agreed. The whole premise was to learn through trial and error how to memorize the joystick movements, all the while giving them massive numbers of quarters. I played once or twice I think...and went back to other games.
uncontrolled illegal immigration is not the same as controlled legal immigration.
I thought you would have learned that in one of your vaunted non-US universities?
The judge did not respond accordingly...hes treating the lawyers like children. What he should do is "you figure this out on your own, like educated professionals, or im gonna hold you in contempt and toss you both in the slam for a night"
Instead, the judge himself has dropped himself to the level of these so called lawyers.
No, we have PLENTY of gardners, farm helpers and construction workers, etc. They are our own citizens...but they dont want to work. If we institued my patented "get off your ass and work or starve" program, this problem would go away.
Yes, the US and Mexico have friendly relations in general, but if you think the illegal immigrant problem is not straining relations, think again. But I dont blame poor and hopeless mexicans (or other south americans) for wanting to come here...I blame the US goverment for not stopping it, and I blame the Mexican government and others for allowing their own countries to be such shitholes, everyone wants to leave and come here.

That one day unshaven hippies hacking linux in moms basement will realize that business revolves around money, not charity.

Not to mention vinyl often sounds better to those audiophiles with top end equipment.

Used Excel? That makes him a hated M$ drone, not worthy of slashdot :)
What he did was small time, and I agree, hardly worth news.

They NEVER sold them. This is a well known fact.
How is it complete BS gets such a high mod score?
no doubt. calling google irrelevant when it doesn't find someone's EXTREMELY irrelevent site is hilarious.
share a computer in the library? the horror. you must be so oppressed!!!

more Euro > US bullshit. It really does get old.
People in the US will never stop exchanging ideas over the internet.

While I agree with the point of your post, it was otherwise stupid as hell.
uncontrolled illegal immigration is not the same as controlled legal immigration.
I thought you would have learned that in one of your vaunted non-US universities?
1) agreed
2) Newsflash...they always have been, and always will.
3) Never was....never was.

this is slashdot.
Microsoft is evil, and always does wrong.
Anyone who opposes MS is good, and can do no wrong.
Damn Neo-Cons ignoring the environment, damn them to hell!
