The Moto Droid is not even 3 years old yet
The iPhone 3GS is older (coming up on 3 1/2 years) and is still very much usable. In fact, it even supports the latest release of the operating system.
But Apple's the evil, money-grubbing one, right?
Our friends at Unicomp also have a Mac version of their keyboard - the Spacesaver M. Freakin' awesome.... feels like '92 all over again.
This post was brought to you by the Unicomp Spacesaver M.
Does it come with Reference USB Keys?
Sadly, I don't think anyone else reading slashdot was alive during the Micro-Channel era, let alone gets the joke
Not true.
It's absolutely accepted - and encouraged - to use our company-issued vehicles for personal use, including vacations.
Not all policies are completely draconian.
Now, having said that, modifying the vehicle (i.e. adding a remote starter, changing the radio, installing NOx) is strictly forbidden.
The person who posted this "question" really just needs to buy his own laptop. A MacBook Air would work well for travel. Even at home, I do the same -- work on one machine, personal on the other. Point, set, match.
That's still once too many.
And still one more than I've ever seen of VxFS. I've managed many, many petabytes of VxFS file systems, and never lost so much as a single file to FS corruption.
(even when I had a coworker manage to import the same VxVM disk group on 2 cluster nodes simultaneously and mount the FS in both places...). A little private region editing and I was able to correct the damage.
Seriously, if you have coaxial jacks, get MoCA bridges. They're awesome.
Welcome to 1992.
The revenge of Taligent.
What's next? Microsoft CyberDog?
... and you think dropping a check off in person will help?
My (previous) mortgage company deposited my mortgage check... and I have no idea whose account got credited for it, but it wasn't mine.
The check cleared, I marked it as such in my bank book, and the only clue something was wrong was when I went from 0 bill collector calls (since I pay all my bills on time) to 4 in one day all about my mortgage. Even after I opened a case, and they started investigating, AND finally credited me back, they STILL had the hounds calling me.
I had to tell them the next call was going to my attorney before they stopped.
So, even dropping that check off in person won't necessarily help. Mistakes can (and do) happen.
Cabletron token-ring 16mbps!
Godspeed, Endeavour. It's a real shame to retire these workhorses. Are they expensive? Yes. Are they exactly what was envisioned in the 70's? No. But, so what? They're still incredible machines that do things mankind has NEVER been able to do before.
The ISS? Wouldn't be possible without the Shuttle.
Hubble? Impossible without Shuttle.
They're workhorses, and it's a damned shame that we, as Americans, have gotten ourselves into such a political quagmire that we can't figure out how to keep man in space. Depressing.

Is that you Vaclav? How many hectares to a tank of kerosene?
Why, oh WHY don't I have moderator points today ?????
You realize that the Apple Airport line supports RADIUS authentication, right?
All that said... The way I'd do it - to make support easy AND keep things secure - is a completely open WiFi access point. No encryption, no passwords required.
The trick is, the access points would only have one destination available - the VPN concentrator. Simple. Enable AES-256 on the VPN concentrator, and you're in business.
Sniff all you want - we'll make more. End users would connect to the VPN the same way from home or from the office WiFi. Easy, cheesy, and keeps the distinction between working at the office and remotely that much smaller.
... then it's between him & Apple. If Apple chose to put his picture up on their website with a huge "DON'T HIRE THIS MAN" banner, then that's between this gentleman & Apple.
By calling him out - publishing his name, social network information, pictures, birthday, etc - Gizmodo is really piling it in. They're making sure - in no uncertain terms - that he is completely & thoroughly embarrassed, humiliated and blackballed from Silicon Valley.
Why? I'm not saying it's illegal, I'm just saying that all it does is make a bad situation worse for this guy.
Yeah, he left the phone behind (if the story's 100% accurate..) Yeah, he works for Apple. But there's no reason to call it out other than just to be mean.
