Add-ons

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Looks like Microsoft has some interesting things in the plans as far as add-on’s for Windows Server 2003. The most interesting thing I saw was the Virtual Server that would let businesses migrate to 2003 but still have a place to run legacy applications that aren’t compatible with 2003. That one, I think, will be a very important piece of the puzzle, especially for smaller businesses that can’t afford to replace some of their legacy apps. If they can get that right, they eliminate quite a few of the reasons not to upgrade to 2003. (Not all, but some..)

    It seems that research has concluded that Guinness bubbles do, indeed, sink. I’m glad we’ve got that settled! I hate to think of all the people out there tonight, drinking down their Guinness not knowing whether those bubbles are sinking or if it just looks that way! Follow these topics: Uncategorized

    By the way, the outage was not planned, someone screwed up when they were doing some router upgrades. I can’t complain because the email server definitely does seem much faster today than it had been! Besides, I don’t have the time, nor the bandwidth, to tell you about all the times I went to “upgrade”…

    Listening to In The Trenches while having lunch at my desk, I find myself intrigued greatly by Rob Whaley’s Admin to Admin segment on Uniform Server. I’ve been seriously thinking about trying to setup a web-server and seeing if I could get some sort of intranet put together as a place to post announcements or…

    I know why we don’t have a Zip code input mask. We do have some people from Canada and Europe on our mailing list, and their zip code, obviously, would not work with an input mask. That makes sense. On the other hand, why someone there wants to keep up with state level legislation in…
