good old Windows Update. Always good for some downtime with those "critical patches" and so forth.
@chris_mahan no, it isn't; I think the DB server restarted to apply patches.
on Playstation Home: "In Home, I feel like a prisoner -- my uniform matches all the other inmates." prison sim? ouch.
I don't mean to sound like a cheapskate, but for my ultra-uber-basic invoicing needs, $12/mo is overkill. $5/mo would be a no brainer!
I think blinksale (online invoicing) is comically overpriced at $13 per month. Anyone got more reasonably priced alternatives?
I keep getting hits to that Burleson guy's content (usually good), and it makes me laugh every time http://www.dba-oracle.com/r...

ripping the Planet Earth HD-DVDs; that's about 88 GB of data in total. Fun to pick up cheap "obsolete" discs with multiformat drive.
It's going to be a "configure your own barebones servers" Xmas for me. Isn't that the best kind, really? I think it is!
90% of everything is crap, including the advice you're given. But that other 10%, if you can find it, is actually quite good.
Pulling the trigger on two Lenovo ThinkServers (RD120+RS110) for me to build up at home and test out.
wow, Dick Hardt joined Microsoft? I loved his identity 2.0 preso. http://www.codinghorror.com...
