The question is will your insurance company allow it to cover professionally as well. That may be a sticking point.

Actually we have in the latest RFP a bunch of laptops from Fujitsu e.g 574,752,754. They are ok.

I think he was talking about SMS and at least SCCM 2007. I work in a 100,000+ environment with over 300 DPs on varying links from fast to abysmally slow satellite and yeah package replication can be annoying. Usually have to refresh a couple DPs a month. Not a huge deal except when it is part of a task sequence and someone tries to migrate a couple hundred machines overnight.

For myself, I had not watched 4-6 since 6 came out when I was a kid so I had put it on a pedestal. I read Alec Guinness' comments on how bad the 4-6 were which opened my eyes so I rewatched them and realized they are no worse than 1-3. 5 was only a bit better because it was directed by someone other than Lucas.

That was Business Depot not Office Depot. They weren't bought out they were the same company but there was an issue with trademarks so they couldn't call them staples. I guess at some point that got dealt with.

One of my first job was working at the East end Business Depot in the early 90's right behind Future Shop.
Want to know where they are burying FS as I want to piss on their grave. Oh the stories I could tell about their lack of ethics (let alone skeevy sales practices)....

Still exists but is a shadow of what it was. Used to be a decent place for autoparts, now it is pretty much a walmart with a small section that sells crap auto parts. Waiting for them to change their name to CT or something that less identifies them as a tire centre.

Actually talking to enough people from outside Canada including the US and Europe, Canada's identity is built from exesive passive-aggressiveness stemming from an inferiority complex and easily identifiable by the guy who keeps saying "I'm not American"

Yeah sorry, Future Shop practices were questionable before Best Buy bought them out. Once they did 99% of the stuff they carried were identical with maybe one or two things differing between them in each apartment. Surprised this didn't happen before.

One of my early jobs was working in a Business Depot and we heard and (I personally) experienced some of the crap they were pulling. An example was I had the floor model of a computer for sale and had a customer come in. He seemed interested and was going to but it but had to go move money. I promised I would hold it for him, about half hour later some guy shows up interested and really wanted to buy it (like pressuring to sell it). Told him no, other guy comes back and buys it. While later I was in Future Shop and lo and behold who do I see working there but the guy who came in after. Figure he was trying to buy it so that the guy would come back and buy his model and then return it. Not sure but this was before Best Buy bought them out.

Anyone remember Futile Shop?

Actually Iraq handed over Iraq to ISIS since as usual:
1. most they had similar religious beliefs so why would they fight them
2. some ran away dropping their weapons
3. rest got overrun and executed

And actually there were WMDs and they found them. Problem was that they were made by allies to the US and they didn't want to embarrass them. Side note BBC had a great documentary that covered the buildup. Essentially they had one guy that was feeding the CIA info on WMDs but they were skeptical. Problem was higher ups (Wolfowitz and Cheney) decided to take him on face value until it was literally too late.

These are border guards. Technically you haven't entered the country, they don't need warrants to search anything. Now as someone pointed out they should have refused him entry not have him arrested.

You'd be surprised. The ones that matter do unfortunately majority of them also get their bread buttered under the existing regime.

I had that when out for a run, I usually take the right hand 6" of side walk and when running I saw a guy about 200 yards in front of me walking the opposite direction right in the middle of the sidewalk. Needless to say he was quite shocked when I didn't move onto the grass. I outweighed him by probably 30lbs so he definitely felt it.
Needless to say I don't think he will assume people will get out of his way from now on.

Extra crispy fries = wheat

Surprises me no one has come up with a box that you put between, have a little wireless connection and a web page to manage. It could mimic the same as the android blocker app. You could back up your white and black lists. Basically it checks the call display and hang it up if it is on the black list. Your phone would never ring. You could also send logs via email if needed.

I think they probably want decent toothpaste more than the latest iThingie. They love getting toothpaste as tips.
