it was a system set up specifically for and by the local Blackberry affiliate to their exact specifications
it was.
Blackberry set it all up, provided the training, and provided the support. It was truly awful.
the company I worked for in 2001 - 2005 trialled BES on Windows 2000 Server and Exchange $whatever, configured especially for BES.
In that environment, BES blew goats. It constantly locked up, lost email, required reboots of the server, etc etc. The company *ran* back to GROUPWISE as a superior alternative to BES.
"Solar is dead. Most of the US doesn't get enough sun to make solar feasible. "
Apparently I have been hallucinating all the sun in the Southern US States. Who knew that coulds could be so bright and shiny? Who knew that cloudiness would make me so sun... sorry, cloud-burned?
Wow. I have been learned good.
ting's android phones start at under $90...
I use Ting - they are a division of Tucows, use the Sprint network, are no-contract, and have reasonable monthly fees and no overage penalty (they just move you to the next tariff). I have an Android smartphone which I can use without any data plan if I so wish.

I think Alabama has an absurdly low abv limit for beer, if I remember correctly. something like 5 or 6 %.
nope. 13.9%.
There is no sensible beer that is 13.9% ABV. Even Carlsberg Special Brew is only 9%. Or do you have a different system for measuring in the US?
there's plenty craft breweries producing double digit ABV beers. Heck, Samichlaus from Austria is 14%. Barleywines routinely hit nearly 11%, Imperial Stouts run from 8% to nearly 20%. Sam Adams Utopias is 27%. Brewdog hit 51% with their "End of History" Icebock.
So, yes - there are plenty of "sensible" beers (i.e. not malt liquor, stuff which is actually worth drinking) in double digit ABV.

Alcohol is a state run for profit monopoly here. Buy it from the state or not at all. They even have special state run stores here. Shipping alcohol can get you jail time.
you're right and you're wrong.
Alabama, like a lot of states, is a 3 tier alcohol state - producer, wholesaler, retailer. Direct shipping of alcoholic beverages is prohibited by law.
*Liquor* is a state run monopoly. Fermented beverages are not part of this monopoly.
my credit union has zero branches.
It does, however, have an app for Android and iPhone to deal with those odd occasions when those archaic pieces of dead tree called "che(ck)(que)s" are sent to you via an obsolete delivery mechanism called "snail mail". It also refunds all ATM charges.
oh, give it a rest already, Stallman. You lost. Get over it.
