    what about the IRS and profit? IP rights are one thing but you still own the tax on them.

  2. I think comcast is doing limmted tryals on Why You Shouldn't Worry About IPv6 Just Yet · · Score: 2, Informative

    I think comcast is doing limited trials of ipv6.

  6. smart phone to change ram? some of the other ideas on The Future of Tech Support · · Score: 1

    how dumb does a tech need to be to need smart phone to change ram? Wait most severs have that info on the door. just sounds like a way to sell some over priced help app.

    some of the other ideas are better staring points to work from.

    Tech support hero #2:??

    most of time you need tell the next guy on the phone the same stuff that you told the first guy. Now planes like comcast need this bad as they can't even tell the cable guy to bringing cable cards when you tell the phone people you need them at times or some times the cable guy / phone people don't even know about them.

    and cable cards is just 1 area that comcast phone and cable guys need to work one. Some times there own boxes can't even get the right config.

    Self-healing?

    auto updates are hit or miss at times and toner replacement that others the high priced stuff on it's own vs the 3rd party stuff? Some cars have oil change lights that only give the codes to the dealer to trun them off and if are a due it your self-er or go a jiffy lube you need to look it up on your own.

    An easier way to replace parts

    most pc's systems are easy to swap parts in but imacs and lots of small systmes are not that easy and apple wants to pay more for apple care do they can fix with out voiding the warranty and it's sucks that the imac makes it so much work just to swap a HDD out.

    Robots that do the hands-on support

    seems to be a high cost at first and likely 10+ years out thing also lag is bad for stuff like that.

    Peer-to-peer support is cool and is at times way better then level 1 phone techs. Get rid of alot of the level 1 low call times and let them do more is a start and don't kick people out who are smarter then level 1 and take more time on the phone.

  7. The fail guy is likey to low to be able to pin it on Feds Won't File Charges In School Laptop-Spy Case · · Score: 1

    The fail guy is likely to low to be able to pin it him.

    Say they pin it on some tech and try to though the book at him child porn and all but do go after the higher ups who did calm to have used the phots even when the assistant principal used them over the fake drugs thing.

    They can't go after the higher ups and the lower guys likely did not even have the choice over the software that was being used.

    But the law suit likely will bring out cool info about all of this.

  8. Just what we need games cut down for a cell phone on Windows Phone 7 Gaming and Xbox Live · · Score: 1

    Just what we need games cut down for a cell phone that are also on the Xbox and pc.

  13. doing the limit when others are do 70+ is not safe on San Francisco Just As Guilty In Terry Childs Case · · Score: 1

    doing the limit when others are doing 70+ is not safe.

    Try doing 55 on I-294, I-355, I-88, Tri-State Tollway, Jane Addams Memorial Tollway and other roads.

    Most cars + trucks are doing 70+ in a 55 and cops let you get away with at least 60-65 and likely 69-70. and on I-94 after the state line you can get away with 70 in a 65.
