    Isolating a server but giving it acces to active directory

    You can use Widows Firewall and an IPSec policy to limit the servers access to just the DC's it needs for authentication then allow it outbound access to the internet.

    problem with using vzn note 2

    It no longer has an IMEI so it is not recognizable on the network. It's useless for a phone.

    problem with using vzn note 2

    Years ago I had an Android phone that I flashed a ROM on that reset the IMEI to all 0's. There was no way to change it and the only solution was to send it back to the manufacturer to reflash. Maybe the seller had the same issue and flashed the stock firmware back on?

    Smartphones quality as phones

    Wow, I'd have to imagine that there is a huge jump in quality when you are 'upgrading' every 7 years. What do you expect the quality improvement to be like when you purchase your next hearing aid in a couple of years?

    Windows Phone marketshare sinks to 1.7%

    That's a good point but the continued R & D and production runs still costs them well over a billion dollar per year run rate. At some point Wall Street will demand they cut their losses entirely.

    Windows Phone marketshare sinks to 1.7%

    All of the apps are missing and the ones in the WP store are old, outdated, missing new features, or have been abandoned by the developer. Then there is the piece of garbage knock off 3rd party apps that MS either paid for and are abandoned or are from random devs. Even the 1st party apps aren't...
