I don't know how well it will work with databases, but we've been experimenting with http://www.mozypro.com/. Its cheap, and I think a major company just started to use them for their desktops. It reticulates splines against already saved data, you can govern how much bandwidth/processor it takes up, can run on its own scheduler, its hipaa compliant(448-bit blowfish encryption), cheap and easy to implement.
Of course it freezes once in a while.
I don't know if this is worth mentioning, but I'm about to upgrade to a 10 mbps from the 1.544 T1. I think its a new not available everywhere low end OC3 DIA line over copper. Thats about 6.5 times the bandwidth, and about twice the price of T1.
Its taken a while to install (last message from xo was that it was running at 100 mbps, I didn't see the problem) but they also said I was the first in my area to get it.
Managed to get my hands on an air compressor, some pneumatic valves, some pvc pipe, and sautered some opto-isolated triacs. Then wired pinouts to a printer port, and wrote a java proggy that took in xml scripts. I could then simulate automation with some motion detectors going into the port, the program processing what to do, and a signal being sent to the triac, which would trigger the valve to open and move a series of levers, which would make a corpse popup, play sounds, turn on lights, etc. You can check out the pics of it here: http://www.bapudi.com/yabbse/index.php?board=7
I remember learning that an effective method of democracy was this, a representative democracy, because of the issue of people not being able to get to a poll to vote, and because people didn't necessarily have the time to learn all of the issues.
Certainly information has grown leaps and bounds, and now a lot of us do have the ability to directly represent ourselves. After seeing a special on this very issue about people waiting in line for 5 hours to vote, seeing the corruption of representatives over and over again, and watching the corporations cheat and run america in their best interests, isn't it time that we, as the information community, try to implement a secure, more direct democracy?
Just a thought
I can't help but to post about a haunted house my friends and i have been building for years, using speakers, a printer port, some motion detectors, some pneumatic valves, a java proggy to listen to the printer port fed by xml, and some optoisolated triacs.

the only thing I can't figure out is how they'd integrate PAL into the screen, anyone?
Rupurt is just letting his evil scientists have a little fun. At the bargain price of $500 per computer he can infect, he now controls the largest DDOS IRC network in the world.

I think instead of a wand they should implement a wal-mart like inventory control system on the hospitals entrance. It would save time, and there's something about a voice going "BEEP BEEP Please report back to surgery. You are attempting to remove an unauthorized device from the premises" to really take the edge off of your recent surgery.

I choose the danger!
Time for me to form a corporation!
What a terrible night to have a curse.

I know a few coworkers I could stick a "ripeness" sticker on...
Best thing about 2008 is Bush --;
