Diskeeper Accused of Scientology Indoctrination 779

Posted by kdawson from the is-that-perfectly-clear dept.
touretzky writes "Two ex-employees have sued Diskeeper Corporation in Los Angeles Superior Court after being fired, alleging that the company makes Scientology training a mandatory condition of employment (complaint, PDF). Diskeeper founder and CEO Craig Jensen is a high-level, publicly avowed Scientologist who has given millions to his Church. Diskeeper's surprising response to the lawsuit (PDF) appears to be that religious instruction in a place of employment is protected by the First Amendment." The blogger at RealityBasedCommunity.net believes that the legal mechanism that Diskeeper is using to advance this argument ("motion to strike") is inappropriate and will be disallowed, but that the company will eventually be permitted to present its novel legal theory.

Personally I got tired of the normal laptop bags and bought a backpack from L.L. Bean. It holds a laptop with 17" wide screen with no problem. It's very comfortable to wear and if you have to run, your laptop is very secure in a padded pocket inside against your back so it doesn't move.

Plus there is loads of room inside for other things. On one outing I had the following in the bag:

1 x HP Notebook
1 x 802.11g Access Point (Netgear, in the box)
2 x Wireless PCMCIA cards (In boxes)
1 x wifi card for my notebook
2 x network cables (25' each)
1 x Palmpilot
1 x Mobile phone
1 x Notebook and other assorted mobile office goodies

And, there were misc other things in there. Yes, it was a near spine breaking adventure, but it just goes to show how much they can hold. I love it so much I wish I bought 2, this one will wear out and having to wait for a replacement will really suck.
