Yeah, I corrected myself later on and didn't go back and change the original statement.

IBM no longer sells desktop and they're getting out of the server market as well, so I think they'll be Lenovo's best customer for the foreseeable future.
As for Oracle, my guess is that these are Big Beefy Machines(tm) used as replacements for the IBM mainframes (which IBM still owns). They probably do use some in their back-end gear, but don't forget that Oracle also owns Oracle Linux and they have their own line of x86 hardware. That's more likely what they have most of.
Doesn't matter if he is using it in an official capacity.
If he's using it in an official capacity, then the records may not be his to release. It would have to be up to the state of Florida to release them.
Again, what?
This release was anything but accidental. Jeb did it intentionally and never bothered to have the e-mails scanned for PII. Just because you tell the government something doesn't automatically make it public record. My tax returns are protected, my passport information is protected. You can't just march up to a government official and demand they hand over every record of communication. That's why there are FOIA offices - to make the determination of what can be released to meet the need of the request.
Public records laws do not automatically exempt PII; they would be rather useless if they did.
What?

...if a privacy interest is found to exist, the public interest in disclosure, if any, must be weighed against the privacy interest in nondisclosure. If no public interest exists, the information should be protected; as the D.C. Circuit has observed, "something, even a modest privacy interest, outweighs nothing every time." If there is a public interest in disclosure that outweighs the privacy interest, the information should be disclosed; if the opposite is found to be the case, the information should be withheld.
First off, jeb@jeb.org isn't a government domain. Second, an SSN is usually considered PII and should not be released to anyone. Third, I wonder if any of those e-mails had the standard legalish boilerplate signature saying the e-mail is intended for the recipient only.
64-bit CPU, 8 cores, and 10x the speed (in Dhrystone VAX MIPS) for about 3x the cost. The more players in this space the better is my thought.

Hey, you said it.
Oh please. You're comparing taking a toll road to having a house? Get real.
Corporations, which — like EZ-Pass — are given monopoly by the government.
The government gives monopolies to all sorts of companies. This is nothing new. Though in this case it's the state governments doing the granting rather than the feds. I thought your type was all states rights nonsense.
The government's threats against us evolve and aren't limited to the old known evil of unwarranted eavesdropping.
What that has to do with cars is beyond me.
The Senator in TFA is scoring cheap points by harking at car-manufacturers over imaginary threats from hypothetical hackers, rather than going after the clear and present dangers enumerated.
You mean the threat of your car being tracked by EZ-Pass? The threat you can avoid BY NOT TAKING TOLL ROADS.
Somewhere in Chicago a community is missing its organizer.
And you seem to be missing any sort of common sense. I'm done with you.
I'm not accepting anything since you haven't really made any point. So thanks for at least admitting you were wrong.
I countered that statement (not entirely accurate one, BTW),
Oh this should be good. Why is it not accurate?
I'm not sure what you're getting at.
You're not required to take a toll road.
No, but you seem to be.
If you have a procedure with 10 parameters, you probably missed some.
