I perfer the Vonage service. I am using the LinkSys VoIP equipment; I have the wireless router with two phone ports and the stand-alone VoIP device from LinkSys. Both work very well and work with normal phones. You can even connect it to the main phone input box at your house and light up all the phone ports in the house.
Actually, it is not time that dilates, it is matter itself. In gravitational acceleration, matter looses mass and in inertial acceleration matter gains mass.
If you ar a lone coder and you are not worth at least 100 million dollars, no one will sue you. The legal costs of a patent suit would cost more than they could get from you. I am reminded of the old saying: "You can not get blood from a turnip"
You need to get Voom now and be readyfor what is about to come. It will be the ultimate home media center. Check out their video presentation on the Voom website. I have two boxes already. I am biting my nails waiting for the upgraded firmware to be released.
The USB port on the Voom box is active and I have read that if you plug in a USB network adapter to the USB port, you will get a preview of what is to come. I am going to purchase a USB adapter this week just so I can tinker with my second receiver.
He is the richest man in the world. Everyone is going to want to knock him off the stump; it is human nature to despise those who are better than us and more succesful than us.
We have a solution that is somewhat unique. We have modified our volume snapshot technology (open file backup stuff at http://www.storagecraft.com/) and flipped it around a bit. When a file system requests to mount a volume, we take a snapshot of that volume and start reading and writing all system I/O to the snapshots. The real disk structure remains untouched and in tack no matter what. We call this shadow mode, but in short, we run from a copy-on-write virtual volume rather than the real volume.
The product, called ShadowUser at http://www.shadowstor.com/, is very configurable. By default all disk writes are thrown out on reboot. However, we have the ability to allow the user to commit single files and folders to the real disk via a shell extension, we have an auto-commit list that lists files and folders that should auto commit on clean shutdown. We also have a global commit feature that will let you commit the entire virtual volumes changes to the real volume on reboot. In addition to these features, we also support an exclude list. This is a list of files and folders that are to be excluded from protection. Their access is done on the real volume and not on the virtual volume. This is all transparent since we hide the real volume and present the virtual volume as the same drive letter that would be visible as the real volume.
The user interface is completly configurable; allowing the enableing and disabling of GUI features. It is possible to remove all GUI components from all users except the administrator or any varioation of features from none to all.
Version 2.5 will release soon with some new and exciting features.
Although we do not provide a mechanism to track and intercept spyware and adware, we protect the system from permanent damage. A reboot will ensure no infections persist. A bonus is that all internet cookies are tossed, all web track are removed unless these areas are excluded from protection.
A typicalShadowUser system will exclude only the Documents and Setting Folder allow users to keep all changes to the local configuration for that user. However, registry changes and sysem changes are not saved. Even when malware enters the system, it can cause no permanent damage.
Another use is to test software. You can install new software when in shadow mode and on reboot, all traces of that softwares install will be gone. Perfect for testing and evaluating software.
This software works extreamly well in kiosk and public terminal access situations, but it also works very well in the enterprise and in the home. Future plans include an exterprise wide management console.
Sorry for the sales pitch, but I have many users who are very happy since they have loaded the software. Worst case, they reboot and all things are back to normal.

If we had listeded to all of the idiots depicting the fall of Microsoft over thepast 5 years, Microsoft wouldhave crumbled years ago.
It amazes me that ignorance is so prevalent. You go right ahead and hold your breath; Microsoft will fall soon.
This is called compare-by-hash. There is a great paper by Val Hensen http://infohost.nmt.edu/~val/review/hash.html on the subject
Sorry, by bad...
I vote for TWAT :)

It is a strange and elegant world we live in.

You know what they say:
Fowl language is used by the ignorant; limited vocabulary.
Social reform, that is what we need.
Coward!
It makes me sick. It seems to be the industry standard these days that if you have a failing comapny, find someone rich to blame and try to sue them.
If you can't beat them, sue them.
People should take responsibility for their actions. Someone screwed up at Novell and they want to pass the buck. Ethics right out the window.

It must have been written by comp-sci grads and not real computer programmers.
Hahaha. That is the best one yet. Where did you hear that one; from some retard in an interview?
Life is too short for COBOL
He did say it. I had the actual interview for years; with a picture of Bill and an IBM model 80
I am working to become one of the elite. Aren't we all? If not, you are a waste of human protoplasm. Please, get off of my cloud.
So what? Are you saying you would have not taken the deal with IBM because your family had connections? If you are, I call you a lier.
You are just pissed because he has more money than you. Lets call it what it is. If this were not the case, why would you even care?
That is called "being an employee". If you want fame and fortune, work for yourself. If you want a paycheck and insurance, work for IBM.
He is the richest man in the world. Everyone is going to want to knock him off the stump; it is human nature to despise those who are better than us and more succesful than us.
Criminal! Given the same circumstance, you would have done exactly what Bill did. So would I and most of the folks who read /.
It is easy to be critical after the fact.
You got that right. If not for Bill, DOS would have died in that garage.
If you lie DeepFreeze, you should like ShadowUser. Give it a try.
