It can keep lists and print 'tables'* of hand coded numbers at no cost to your average non-corporate purchaser of Excel.
*This because, people who can't figure how to insert a table into Word open Excel to put them in nice columns to be printed out and manually inserted between the 3 page document they wrote in Word. Yes, these are the people dictating software UI design.
The US had not taken reasonable steps to protect its security and now expects McKinnon to pick up the bill, said an expert witness statement made in McKinnon's ongoing appeal against a US extradition order.... But Sommer said, "Every intrusion detection system I have come across would flag up the installation of a remote control program like Remotely Anywhere. Any firewall also ought to block the 'ports' [internet access points on a computer] used by Remotely Anywhere. On this basis, the costs claimed for are features that should have been there in the first place."
"I found out that the US military use Windows," said Mr McKinnon in that BBC interview. "And having realised this, I assumed it would probably be an easy hack if they hadn't secured it properly."
These weren't gated communites or locked houses with security fences around. These were toliet blocks on parks that a hobo went through their garbage bin, then climbed into the ceiling to get to the cleaner cupboard.
Remote Anywhere is a traveling mechanism; while he was there he may have bashed a few locks in... after being invited in, but the incompetent owners and purchasers of well known Operating Sieve MS Windows are to be held more accountable than this twerp.
I service a school that has 10 - 15 cira 98 imacs still useable; there isn't a pc in the school that is older than 5 years. Admittedly we are in the seaside tropics but that hasn't stopped the macs.
Yeah, sorry for being imprecise. I gotta remember my potential to only think from my perspective. *slaps side of head* That 2/3 number is still reasonably high.
I was recently told by a Queensland Education Department tech that the current, recently upgraded EdQ filter infrastructure (centralised in Brisbane covers every school in Qld Au) is only able to cope with a maximum 80mbps requests. Some of the apparently common slowdowns of the department's network were due to this.
I can only wonder what will happen when Australians are all filtered...
Two anecdotes? Besides if playing flash games for two hours puts you over 200mb transfer... it is hard to see that reasonable usage for anyone wouldn't do the same. People are sending pictures uncompressed at 5 & 8 Mb each. I think Telstra has generously increased to volume to a massive 500mb recently though.
Indeed, and any suggestion otherwise is merely FUD.
Having worked for Telstra, their attitude toward customers is absolutely terrible. They are deliberately given worse service than corporate CIOs, even though ALL Australians paid for the network they "own". This is great news and I have been pushing for this as a viable alternative to the mess that is Aussie telecoms - mind you, most people have no idea of the real impact and just parrot the FUD spreaders.
I wouldn't be surprised if bloodhawk is in Telstra middle management.
Ahh... I personally believe people buy Windows because they believe that as it is Microsoft Software it must be good. To hell with science, facts and history! The salesman told me! (Okay I acknowledge that is a strawman)
Sheep? Damn inconsiderate, I'd say. If people treated cars like they do computers, we'd all be driving Ford Pintos. A laugh a minute.
I actually like idea of ?Microsoft?s to add the text menu bar under the ubiquous application icon in the top left corner... once I worked out where it was. But then, for universal options like file/open/close, edit, view help, etc, I like pie menus...
I'm sensing him, I'm sensing him *OOOO* I have a vision! He is surrounded by unknown entities, in a white building. It has green surrounding it. One of the entities has a mustache. He is very well protected. A fog is closing in... argh! it is gone.
The GPL is a reaction to excessive copyrights, an attempt to use the copyright system against itself. If there were no copyrights at all, then the code under gpl would likely be shared around anyway, probably with just a disclaimer. You know like people did before the GPL.
Nobody but Google. Let us ponder the implications of this... Now take into consideration the actions of the two parties and their motivations to do so...

Welcome to Australia, We're working hard, making China look liberal.
If you are interested in how our government works we have a manual called "Nynntin Ayt teefoor" an indigenous phrase for 'All you arses belongem me!'
It can keep lists and print 'tables'* of hand coded numbers at no cost to your average non-corporate purchaser of Excel.
*This because, people who can't figure how to insert a table into Word open Excel to put them in nice columns to be printed out and manually inserted between the 3 page document they wrote in Word. Yes, these are the people dictating software UI design.
I really like this idea; maybe I'll become a academicians to help push this along.
No. The open cavity was made by Microsoft. This bloke was a hobo looking for interesting stuff public places.

I have an anecdote to that. I haven't been laid since I've run Windows... Probably because I've been taking forever to fix it for her.
Taste? You drink it?
Man, these foriegners are crazy!
That's New Zealand. Australia has beer kegs.
Gnu Hurd?

People are still *buying* MS Windows and you think that because it is popular is a recommendation? Weird.

"unscrupulous lawyers"
Now that is just redundant.
"I suspect they are far and few between."
Really? Who cares, as long as you vote for me in the next election!

Acting as if the GPL is an oxymoron is moronic.

No. Only the good die young.
Yet the bloke that did it in under a minute still recommends Mac over Windows units with regard to security. What does he know about security.
Yes, they do.
