Did your SSL cert come from StartCom?

I spent the past five years working in a small (~25 developer) Windows XP Pro based software development house. Our file server was running Win2K3 Enterprise and was using a large (1TB, later upgraded to 10TB) hardware RAID 5 disk array. All of this equipment was sourced from Dell.
Once a month, we needed to call in an admin to bring down the server (and once every other month for someone's desktop machine) to delete files that were "screwed up". "Screwed up" means:
* Cannot delete, rename, read, or modify the file.
* The only tab available on the "File->Properties" dialog for the file in question is the "General" tab. (This means that the Sharing, Security, and Customize tabs shown here are not present.)
Note that *every* developer performed work as an unprivileged user. Noone on staff possessed an Administrator account, with the exception of the admins.
I've never *ever* seen this behaviour with *any* filesystem on Linux. I've abruptly pulled the plug on my home machines hundreds of times and never had *any* filesystem issues. (Not even with reiserfs V3.
"Touch base" comes from ye olde American Baseball. You have to touch a base in order to continue on to the next one; you can't just run past the place where the base is.

Just 'cause the crypto's closed-source doesn't mean that it's not lifted in its entirety from peer-reviewed software.

FTFY.
A huge number of people are having serious problems with the KDE 4.x series.
If they're having issues, they need to file detailed bug reports. Software developers are generally neither mind readers nor are they working for the NSA.
Ever have a power outage while in the KDE? Good luck getting the DE back with your old preferences.
A) The loss of your preferences files is an issue with your filesystem, not KDE.
B) KDE 4.x is rock solid for me, despite multiple intentional power outages *and* running it all on btrfs.
So Microsoft can (successfully, in the Central District of California)
Cite, please?
Yes. This issue is orthogonal to the point that I was addressing.
* auto-configure - what an awful idea, a recipe for disaster
It's only a disaster if you've NICs on your network that have duplicate MAC addresses. If this is the case, you'll have a disaster, regardless of what L3 protocol you use.
* every device their own ip - um why?
Why not?
Heck. Money-hills of any sort are appreciated.
Thanks, matzahboy!
Oh, wait...
Additionally, I don't see "graphing calculators" on that list.
Care to give us a comprehensive list of the devices that you feel would be "fundamentally hurt by customization"?
Good day to avoid cops. Crawl to work.
