  • I'm not a happy Windows user and I will switch soon. Apple new switch site really impressed me. I'm getting sick and tired with windows applications occasionally slowdown, fighting with spyware and adware. 2007 will be a great year. Leopard and Vista will fight each other and the winner will be my next platform.

    Do Macs exist?
  • I work in a datacentre and the connection I use is in a datacentre. I'm not supposed to tell this, but yes we have shared firewall behind our 2 core Cisco router. I'm currently working right know, where I manage about 40 racks of server with various OS, including Linux, BSD, Windows and Mac. I agree with you with the education thing. We must equipped ourselves with knowledge. By the way, the server is okay now after some tooling around using Google to disable RPC from restarting the windows.

  • I am not behind a router or anything, it directly connected to the internet. It is Windows Server 2003 not Windows XP though. I thought its designed for security, stability and durability. I even run IE in "Trusted Sites" zone mode while updating.

  • My experience with Windows Server 2003 and I am not making up this story. I make a clean install using RAID 1 (mirroring) and then go straight to Window Update to acquire Service Pack 1. I click 'Yes' for installing Windows Update software (active X) before it actually update my windows. I am sure that the software come from Microsoft. Then I wait about half an hour until updating progress finish and then the machine ask me to reboot so I reboot. Upon starting up, my computer restarting every 1 minute. With Google, I know my computer has been infected with MsBlast.exe virus. According to my experience, Windows do get infected with virus in 12 minutes according to some research on the web. This is my personal experience, and no offence to everybody (either Mac user or Windows user).
