No, he was setup to fail by his parents who didn't realize they had named him "Dick Willie".

In Austin there are plenty of ex-Dell support center staff who'd (presumably) need very little training.

Umm... Windows has a policy kit. Have you heard of it?

News Flash: Kids draw on walls. Gee. Who'd a thunk it?

And if you keep your notes close by at all times, they're "hacker proof" (duh)

Console tape and wire labels via Sharpie... ALL.. DAY.. LONG..

You watched it go on for a few weeks without blocking the traffic? Amazing... This must be the Windows IT mantra... Notice something weird? Stare at it for a few weeks. Maybe it will go away.

Agreed, although they don't have to be lackluster.. I drive an 89 benz 300. I enjoy luxury and elegance along with the dependability and freedom from pesky electronics. I'm pretty sure the thing will survive an EMP.

Not by the time financial transaction software developers like Fidelity Information Services get a hold of it. How is running a daemon compiled together with it's monitor in a GUI-based .COM object even remotely "working pretty damn well"? Don't get me wrong, I've heard all the fairy tale applications for .NET, and sure it could have some uses.. But any .NET app I've ever seen has been a nightmare. Had to build server images with very specific versions of every single OS patch and interpretor, otherwise the thing went tits up... This is not what .NET was "supposed" to be about, but in the end it was utter crap.

Don't even get me started on MS Biztalk.... ::cringe::

I took the tinfoil off and got an account in oh..I don't remember. What's the reason for abandoning an account?

Still the wrong Telex. I think he meant Telex

Delete this treasonous piece of tripe.

I've been using Enlightenment since DR13, but never made the switch to E17. Tried it a few times, but only on test boxes. Sometimes I forget they call 0.16.x "E16" now, the "development release" moniker disappeared some time ago. Never really figured out why E didn't catch on with more of the server geeks who choose lean desktops even when their workstation is a monster.. IMHO, if you prefer FluxBox, WindowMaker, or XFCE (to name a few) you are choosing the Mustang over the GT-40 when you can easily afford the latter (please excuse the barbaric analogy).
