g'nite Bear. ;-)
'nite all. It's painful for me to sit up. I'm gonna go get a hot shower to clear my head and head back to the couch.
If'n I can't sleep, I may stop buy later.
Thanks for puttin' up with muh whinin'.
Feel better, Corin.
Remember: a rice steamer can double as a humidifier if needs be.

Netware was fun. My intro to network admin was on a Novell system. But it was a love-hate thing, just like running a MS shop today.
NT 3.51 Server, and then NT 4.0 blew them out of the water on an ease-of-admin point of view. But the NT directory always blew chow compared to Netware.
One of the truths of life does remain: Novell's NDS as a directory service really was well ahead of its time. Windows Active Directory (and they'll even admit it after a couple of beers) is a total ripoff of NDS.
At least they mainly got it right. :-)
Hi there. :-)
Hey stranger! :-D
Sorry I didn't just jump into the middle of the computer-talk earlier, but I'm so clueless I can't have an opinion.
Mmmmm... Alienware.
Hey... I'm clueless and yet I still manage to have an opinion. :-)
Opinions are like that.
heheheh..
Well yes, I guess you're right. But I thought it was considered bad form to give an opinion on a subject I admittedly know nothing about.
Active Directory and I sort of have a love-hate thing going... sometimes we discover the oddest things. Like the way the SSNs of all the users were sort of being stored in Active Directory. And not too securely. We had a fun afternoon writing Perl scripts to clean that one up, but it wasn't AD's fault, it was a certain person who set up the system in the first place.
Tell Clare "Happy Birthday!"
Do YOU have a humidifier? Remember to drink lots of water, too. A Hot Toddy wouldn't be amiss, either. ;o)
Yah... I played around for a few minutes with his Alienware laptop. OK... "portable" or "luggable" would be more accurate than "laptop". It's a laptop only for people that can bench-press more than the average.
The thing had a huge display and it was lightspeed fast. The video was of course gorgeous, and you gotta love the surround-sound for movies... but damn... that thing had to weigh something like ten or twelve pounds. Easy.
The thing was huge. About the size of a legal pad, only about two and a half inches thick. Just damn...
No, that's called "Management". I present myself as evidence. :-)
LOL!
You forget that I've actually seen you in person.
You do not have pointy hair. ;-)
That billboard is very disburbing!
I woulda missed this if it hadn't been for Suzi's catch-up post!
All I can say to that billboard is...
Yikes.
