Maybe if he stopped behaving like one and making sweeping statements that you yourself have proven wrong...

Actually, if you read your post above and my posts, we're fighting the same battle... Tool!

I win:

Depended where you wanted to work! I'd not be using the D610 (please, I got more than that!). If you wanted to work out in the sunshine I might bring the ATG - 10hours battery life, HSUPA connectivity and a screen I can read with the sun shining on it with sunglasses on. True mobility - the...

I'll use my AppleTV (which obvioulsy I'll have to call Frontrow) and watch from here as he gets very upset that someone might actually know something about IT *AND* like Vista *AND* be able to name any of a number of features that make it better than XP from a Business and a design point of...

It's intended for virtualisation environments. You don't think that a whole 2% of CPU resources to show a desktop every once in a while makes that much difference on a Quad Quad-core Opteron or something do you?

So, I take it implementing and maintaining kit that most companies dream of using means I don't know computers? Tell me then, what is it you do that makes you god with computers? You ever used an Enterprise Virtual Array? How about set one up? You know how to put in Domino? Or what about...

802.11N is quicker than 100Base-T? Given that most home-spec desktops (particularly as one is an old one!) run 10/100Meg Realtek (nasty cheap) NICs.

Depends, but typically yes. Depends how much s**t you've got to move, and whether a large USB key would be useful in future after you've finished? As 16GB ones are going for sensible money now...

Take your pick Daz, got an HP EVA, two Dell/Clariions, couple of Fibrenetix arrays...

You see your argument came across as a full stop should have stuck with 98SE - what you mean is why should you UPGRADE your OS on your existing machine. Simple answer is don't unless you want to be on a supported platform. When the hardware dies, buy new and use the OS that comes with that...

We'd all be driving a Ford Model T in your ideal world then?

I think it's biggest flaw in a business environment is it's different. HOWEVER, have any of you switched it to classic mode? Given that users click Start, Programs, Microsoft Office, Outlook/Word/Excel 9 times out of 10, then it won't pose a problem. The issue is with the training of the support...

Unless I decide to plug the SAN into the web server, then yes. :dapprove:

1TB of it going spare...

Even then, the more tricky networking has it's uses - I had a problem with a client device that was plugged into the network, but nothing was working - but it had been assigned an IP address. Vista's network diagnostics found an old DNS record on the Router for the machine, which when that was...

And in light of the above comment, I think actually you'll find people who are afraid of anything Microsoft will tell you it's terrible, people who have an open mind and have spent the time to sit down and use it will tell you it's great. Let me take a fairly recent example - Vista installed...

:nono: What do you think I do for a living?

Actually Clarkson did this with the Jag XJ220 and Pagani Zonda - the XJ220 won because of the collossal amounts of torque as opposed to the Pagani's power.

Got 6 thanks, one on my server, one on my mail server here, one on in Outlook, one on the Domino server in the office, one on Lotus Notes and one on my Hotmail account. :rasp:

Not sucks - good. Anything that makes the scamming, spamming tosspot's life harder is good. Sure you don't want to buy a laptop?

Shitty Apple crap. Anyone want to buy a laptop?

Probably an anti-spoofing feature on G-Mail then to stop people using it to scam people.

You need to change the email address for the User Infomation - Email Address for your G-Mail account...

You can change your email address shown on the account instead of just the reply to address?

As I think he's tried to say - put your alumni email address down in your 'Reply-to' section under Email Account Settings.

I'll bring my video camera, just so we can have a giggle!

Get yourself a Canon Digital Ixus 80 - with a decent size SD card it'll tip the scales at £200 and you'll embarrass anyone with £800 worth of camera and no idea how to work it...

Mine was fine through the Vulcan and the Typhoon taking off 20 metres in front of me, so I suspect it'll be fine!

HD = High Def, HDD = Hard Disk. Mine is both - wouldn't buy another camera that wasn't HDD-based. No changing of tapes or discs - my mate got a Mini-DVD one and that's great. Except after half an hour he has to change the disc. I can get up to 900 minutes of 1080i video recorded and only ever...
