Well it's sure heartening to know arrogance doesn't just apply to signed Artists that deal with the MAFIAA.

You have no idea where the road you are going down will lead, do you? You really think putting people in jail for copying files where there is no loss of physical product, only duplication, will lead to some sort of success for yourself and those like you? You want to benefit from the suppression/repression of others? Think bigger picture.

We'll power the world with whatever we can use that offers the best transfer of energy. Probably a hybrid of various technologies, even including a windmill. Why so dismissive right out of the gate?

See all those Software and Business 'Process' patents? Throw them all in the trash. All of them.

What about us 5k'ers that lost our original login for our 4 digit accounts! ;)

Get off my lawn, you young whipper snappers, with your over 20k IDs.

*shakes cane in the air until legs being to wobble*

What, no mention of being tied to the App Store and a specific apple ID? No mention of only being able to use apple 'approved' apps on the ipad?

There are seriously deficient IT integration considerations from the get-go with an iPad, the only reason to even consider implementation in the first place is if Apple shows up at your door with a dumptruck full of free iPads.

What "more flexibility" is allowed on a third party DNS vs. Godaddy's domain manager? (Honest question, I've used both and until today never had a DNS outage with GD and there is no missing functionality from GD's domain manager that I have discerned)

Hey look, someone else was listening to NPR.

Who needs a GUI for multiple CLIs when you have Screen...

The moment we try that it will be like you're already IN Canada.

Why would we just use one bomb? If its necessary, start hitting it with everything we have in an orderly fashion, hell we can probably change trajectory enough to prevent catastrophe with multiple detonations at a particular area, think Project Orion with the asteroid as the space craft (and we don't care if the craft disintegrates in the process).

Cheers.

$40-60/mo is your average broadband bill. $75/mo for goddamn Gigabit ethernet? I'll be renting an apartment and storing servers there as my own personal data center and it will still be cheaper than dedicated or even shared gigabit ethernet + a rack at a local datacenter... !!!!!

Do you have examples for evidence or just conjecture?

I strongly disagree, Apple abandoned its corporate business customers when they abandoned XServe, which was in fact a fantastic 'enterprise' ecosystem. Being an Agency, we still use Apple products for our creative teams, but no longer consider their technology for any infrastructure (eg Thunderbolt storage options). Soon I will be proposing a move from their equipment entirely for even the Creative team, but the upgrade period expected for them is still 1+ years out, we'll see if they do anything remotely innovative business wise for companies that aren't just 2-5 people using shared storage.

I grew to love OS X as I used it more, but Apple's decisions in terms of business support (and the apparent move to an iOS/app store ecosystem) just isn't something that improves the state of computing in business.

Republicans.
