What say I? You are an idiot.

What is wrong with you? No compassion whatsoever?

There is no Aero in Windows 8.

Just read that arstechnica article. There were great archiving platforms available for Exchange even back then.

Oh come on... Microsoft Exchange would not be such a popular Enterprise email platform if it was used "so emails would get lost".

Frankly that seems it could easily be a form of theft.

Apparently I do not hold the inherent right for Chrome to log me into Slashdot across computers. :)

Amazon Unbox player is only needed to actually DOWNLOAD the video content to a computer so it can be viewed without internet access (on a plane, etc). Just wanted to clear that up...

"You don't inherently have a right to prohibit people from copying it, distributing it, etc. So where's that leave us?" How is this possibly true? So I can buy one copy of the New York Times, make copies of it to sell then pocket all the proceeds myself?

Why? And would you go with Microsoft over a Dev Guild?

There are methods of measuring temperatures into the past besides thermometers. I forget the details but the size of tree rings or different types of fossilized corals might be some of them.

" they are finding remnents that show those areas were green at least once before in the past" And this part was kind of funny... climate scientists weren't surprised by anything that is found as glaciers retreat. We already knew it has been warmer in the past.

I get pretty frequently a whole pile of advertisements in my mailbox. At my apartment complex there is a big trash can by the mailboxes where everyone deposits those straight out of the mailbox. I don't know how much that costs that get passed on, but it is certainly a lot of dead trees too.

Wow it's actually hard to figure out how to pay for a subscription on Slashdot even when you want to. No wonder that percentage is so low! I've logged in now, clicked through to the "Subscriptions" page on my account, all I see is gift subscription information and "You can buy a subscription for yourself or a gift subscription for another user. Payment options include PayPal and credit-card.". That's nice... how!?!?! Am I missing something obvious?

Ok, I'm a Windows Server Admin by trade (10 years; cut my teeth on NT4) but even I think Windows has its place. Running critical infrastructure is NOT it. My 2c worth...
