ramblings of a philomathic polymath
So a whole crapload of windoze source code was leaked on to the internet a couple days ago and today the first documentation of an exploit based on that was released. How awesome is that?!? Hehehehe…. these next few months are going to be great!!!
Running a business without using Windoze is definitely possible.
I try my darndest to be as nice and friendly as I can when asked for tech support by family and friends, but sometimes it does get frustrating…. especially when answering questions that people should be able to answer for themselves from reading online help or doing a simple Google search. Here’s a good article that brings the issue to a point.
The new G5 Xserve has been getting great marks: In terms of file services, it outpaces one of the fastest Windows file servers — the IBM eServer x335 running Windows Server 2003 — by about 20% in high-volume NetBench testing. (This is with both machines providing Server Message Block file services for Windows.) Interestingly enough, the performance difference grows as more clients are connected. With fewer than 12 clients, the IBM eServer provides better network throughput than the Xserve.
