It's not obvious? They want to make more money, not lose money.

Anonymous, sic'em!

GoDaddy also paid SCO at least $1M too. I would have left them then if I were a customer of theirs.

Why did you create the software in the first place? If you expected to get paid for it, then you should ask talk to them about it before even wasting your time with the endeavor.

Now that said, I write system management utilities all the time. Hell, it makes my job so much easier. As far as I'm concerned, it *IS* part of the job description. If someone isn't doing it, it's because they are not an efficient worker. That tells me they probably aren't earning their current paycheck, much less deserve to earn more.

I haven't overclocked since I bought an 1.3Ghz AMD Duron around 2002. It didn't have much headroom though to OC. I think I could only get it to around 1.4Ghz and change.

Lately I don't see much use in OCing. Chips are plenty fast enough for almost anything you throw at them today and you can buy faster chips relatively cheap in the next year or so when your current chip is becoming insufficient.

Both the Intel i5-2500k and AMD Phenom II X6 1100T sit around $200. They aren't the fastest on the market, but at around $200 they are cheap any easily fast enough to handle anything you throw at them.

Make their search worse than the others. That is the only way to fix it their monopoly problem. /facepalm

The idiots who approve stupid patents like this should be held libel for court costs when a company has to go to court to get them overturned.

I've always ran Firefox and still do, but I have to say. My plugins stop working almost every time they update these days. It makes me use Firefox less and less.

The best thing about Firefox was that it viewed sites that other browsers didn't (not talking about IE here) and it's plugins. Firefox could do every thing. Now, each release it breaks everything. :/

This is true, but you have to be selective. Sometimes pre-built solutions makes since.

I've seem way to many people try to build solutions when an off the shelf solution would have been easier and cheaper in the long run. (say after a failure, and sometimes before!)

If you need a mail server with lots of accounts, but no bells and whistles. Build it yourself. You need an mail server with all the bells and whistles. (calendaring, etc) Buy one off the shelf. You will save yourself a lot of head aches. (providing you're not stupid in implementing your off the shelf product)

I have a couple of name brand HA NAS devices. I also have a couple of Linux NFS servers running DRBD and heartbeat. I knew where to buy off the shelf and where I could do it myself.

I have a Brother Printer and Brother has an iOS and Android app for printing. So far it has worked flawlessly.

Is he not aware how terrible syslog is? syslog is ancient and has several series flaws from security to just stupid limitations. It should have been replaced ages ago.

I just upgraded my PC from a Intel E6600 to a AMD Phenom II X6 1100T. I chose AMD, for one reason. How the heat sink / fan attach to the motherboard.

I have dogs, and kids and my PC doesn't reside protected under a desk. It gets bumped all the time from them playing and those stupid plastic plug brackets that Intel uses to attach the heat sink and fan to the motherboard were absolute garbage. Someone would bump my PC and the heat sink would hang off and cause the CPU to overheat. Not to mention after re-attaching it a few times, the knobs break and you have to buy a new heat sink and fan.

At least AMD still uses the clamp style that clamps to the socket. There is no way that is going to come off unless you intend to take it off. I won't buy Intel again until they re-design how the heat sink attaches.

Everything should be opt-in. Never opt-out.

We've already started the migration to Redhat's KVM. Our testing environment has been completed. We beginning the rollout for Production now.

Why switch? The price.

Rumor has it, this new Chinese super computer hacked into itself.
