want to really solve your problems and be real secure? run linux.

i've been running a gentoo file server thats my desktop with 2 monitors thats going to be upgraded to an AMD64 system soon =) i'd like to get a dual core cpu but its way too much money right now



resolution to PC problems = Apple?
Apple uses intel chips FYI. But they do have the logic - let's build a fast booting OS and give up stability so incase the OS crashes, we can reboot real quickly. Sorry I just find that funny for some reason

Linux - ok lets see how many people are actually able to run litestep on their winbox before asking them to shell out a linux box. Let alone windowsblinds or script any other "shell" gui. not many here comfortable doing so. As for the stability of linux or *nix even, i think as a core OS its efficient, but its not something "user friendly". meaning to market linux like windows will take a whole generation switch. It's like moving from a pc to a mac. Not many people are comfortable doing so.

Studio Monitors - Look into KRK Rokit Series, that's what I'm looking to buy. You'll be spending about $3-400 but you'll get a nice defined sound.

MIS refers to Management in Information Systems (i'm going for an MBA in marketing to achieve a Director of Sales Operations and Information Systems title). Essentially I develop/implement/test and validate all computerized systems and workflow. The MBA will allow me to highlight efficiency according to a metric which will ultimately be an accomplishment. It's like applying six sigma of business to time reduction in production and sales operation environments. It uses BI (business intelligence) with hands on technical skills. I do anything from Oracle 11i/9i/10g Discoverer Programming to freehand coding HTML to scripting appletalk SCP/ TCP IP protocols for file retrievals. I even work with XML and RSS for data feeds to online vendors like Amazon, B&N, Google. I work for a fortune 500 publishing company (mcgraw-hill companies). I straddle the Business Unit and Sales Division. So I'm close to the revenue line, but no responsible for generating revenue. Responsible for predicting market trends based on buying patterns and point of sale data. shit now that i think about it, i handle about 180million in business, 100million in forecasted business, and the whole divisions orderfulfillment process.

Anyways, back on topic - computers in general are great since a machine can do all the calculations and automated processes for you. Imagine being able to control your crib from your cell phone? You call your house, enter a few numbers, get home with the AC on and a cool apartment. TV/DV-R set to record the pay-per-view tyson fight that your illegal cable box is letting you get. Setup downloads to occur during the late mornings when there is least traffic and more bandwidth for you to move files. It's a great technology and soon will replace alot of human intervention at a more precise and efficient work flow.

I'm sure Lim has resolved the issue by now. Summit - get rid of that a-ware box man and build your own. how much did you pay for that if you don't mind me asking?

as for linux mandrakesoft and ubuntu have made tremendous progress in developing user interfaces for linux that are very simple allowing even the novice computer users to install a basic linux box.

as for gentoo's package and install management program called portage, there is NOTHING like it for windows or mac.

A few years back my brother was having computer problems and one time when it froze for the 10th time in an hour he took it outside to the street and chucked it like 20 ft into the air and let it crash into the pavement, picked it up and threw it right into the ground. He came inside and said damn that felt good

Im about a few weeks away from doing it to this p.o.s.

maybe im just a nerd but you know you can format those things and make them run faster and if not you can salvage the pieces and then toss it. save you some loot

i haven't ran a clea install since redhat days. i think i've done a mandrake install before too dont really remember. im not a fan of linux, i ran a file server off a redhat box 2yrs ago and it would crash on literally every 25days. where as the windows FTP server i've kept up for months on end with reboots, but never any hard crashes.

were they the same box? i guess each box is different so it could have been some hardware stuff. i don't really care for redhat anymore. there have been significant advances elsewhere and i think they have been pretty much stagnant. they tried fedora but i'm not sure thats working for them.

No, the guy actually had it overclocked to that speed. I believe that he was using either LN2 or vapochill, though.
