sweet!

We were considering Google Apps for Quixotic, but the team is small and everyone was already very used to Microsoft tools. So, at least for now, we went with Office 365 instead. But Google Apps was a strong contender. It's a great product.

Our Principle Engineer came from a strong Microsoft background so that played a big role, even though we are not focused on Microsoft development tools.

Very sad. 😞
Too soon for the joke I was going to post.

@coliver That's interesting. If I can pull off this first phase, taking it to a higher level should be a breeze. I'll keep you informed of my progress. Keep in mind, it's not the top priority on my list, but it sure has my interest currently.

Oh, I was just saying if you could get it working reliably and have it wifi/cellular connected there would be a market for it. This overall sounds like a fun project.

Awesome!

Very exciting. I can't wait to see how this plays out.

As long as the RPM standard is being maintained, that would be hell to replace.

When you say 'comes with' do you mean those are automatically installed by default when you install linux?

No, but are part of the distro. How do you define "Linux" to compare to Windows if you don't include the things that can be installed with the base install?

Linux distros and Windows are fundamentally different things. If you can come up with a definition that is comparable between the two for comparison, I'd be surprised. There is no clear way to compare as they are just so different as to what is included. One is much, much more bare - but has tons and tons more in its "part of the distro" options. The other is never as bare, but comes with little additional.

It's impossible to prove a negative, and their inability to find evidence isn't evidence that they weren't stolen, unfortunately.

Assume the worst, move to plan B

I wonder why Russia wants to help the US all of the sudden. Seems kind of fishy to me.

Russia doesn't want rogue hackers anymore than anyone else does. Not good business and doesn't help them.

the school must license Office in order for its students to be eligible

So as long as the school is already in an agreement, the students all get this? No new charges to the school?

That's how I read it.

Had an argument about this tonight...i don't think the person I was talking to believed me...
