    Time for Heresey!

    Gee, SCSI attack: OK guys, what about: 1) overall costs (which include the SCSI adapter)? 2) capacitites (which are still lame for the 15K HDDs)? I'm not arguing about SCSI-IDE here, but they are supposed to be addressed to different customers. There is no point in a SCSI vs IDE discussion...

    It Professional's role in preventing piracy

    I think it's the IT professional's and PC reseller's responsibility. You are the ones who lose money afterall by piracy, indirectly or directly. But the first call goes to the financial authorities of the country. They should be doing more controls, in all premises. Said that... I have dump axx...

    http://home19.inet.tele.dk/loading/desktop_69_v2.jpg Here's a heavy but almost unrecognizable and sexy Windows XP desktop. I personally don't like it because of the many redundant and unnecessary monitoring tools, but otherwise shows what you can do by playing with various themes and schemes.

    Give me a break. It's not so big (less than 320x80)! And it does it's job: it's a static (not an annoying dancing GIF) purple sig that marks my posts and advertizes a very good p2p application, as a sig may do. What's your monitor's resolution? 320x240?

    Only the pre- titles. Like Herr Doktor Professor, not MD, PhD, etc. I'm not really in the protocol, but yes they officially address them with railway names in Germany! I once heard a Herr Doktor Doktor (he had two doctorals, I think a honorary DSc and an MD)... really!

    OK my bad. Actually this is a problem of the English language which doesn't separate singular from plural. I was talking on both. (Bozo seems to laugh too) Not that's illegal, but it confused me... I thought the site was a prank.

    Depends the country and even the university. University of London gives MB BS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) degrees. Oxford gives the same with other names. In Germany normal medical graduates are just called Artz. You get the Dr. Med. only if have done MD. BTW in Germany the...

    No, not at all. I know they are good guys. But they are only two! IMO, a well-moderated board needs to have a 1:1000 moderators:users ratio, adjustable according to the effective traffic. Of course there is no rule because it depends on how many persons post, how many sections there are, the...

    Not all, in my home country (Greece) and some others you get the MD title by just graduating. In Germany and UK the MD degree is if you actually opt-in for research while or after you graduate, respectively. In Italy we have a compulsory degree thesis in all faculties. This is good for us, I...

    Time for Heresey!

    IMHO, SR suffers from the current configuration of the forums. I mean, 5 forums for 15K+ users? It should have at least 10, for every PC on- and off- topic. Eugene also needs more moderators. When I say moderators I mean really-interested guys who would like to help 24/7 and know the field and...

    Depends the country. In Greece for example it's gratis. In Italy some €1000, in the UK it can even arrive to circa €3000 for top med schools. These prices are only for EU nationals Of course I'm talking about public unis.
