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?
