This is the chair I have here in the 'office' at home: http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/690690/Realspace-PRO-Mesh-High-Back-Chair/?cm_cat=2000000371 It's pretty much just as comfortable as the Aeron chair I have at the corporate office.

Interested, but no funds for a couple of weeks. If you've still got it by mid-Sept, I'll pick it up

The school I work has is using a program called Sys-Aid, from a company called Ilient. Having used Footprints, JIRA, Track-It, and a couple of others- this was an awesome choice for us. It's a fully integrated helpdesk, category based for problems; includes a self-help option, email service...

that's the model the school I work at chose for it's senior class laptops. Win7 works just fine on it, and runs quite well.

Hey folks- I'll try and make this place more appealing

Regrettably, I came into it after things were FUBAR'ed, so I think some of the wizards were run, but can't state so definitively. I've advised the client to contact MS Support directly for next steps.

I wish. Nothing else.

Heh- did that probably 4 times with each change of confg, along with restarting the dns service itself. No change- DNS resolves wonderfully for about 10m, then croaks.

I'm helping a client (and fellow [H] member) with a problem at his workplace- they tried a migration from SBS 2003 to 2008. For various reasons it didn't work, and then I got involved. Most things are working, but DNS is causing no end of headaches - it's a pretty simple setup, and appears...

I can only add my 'me too' to everyone here with good things to say about it. I picked it up based on the [H] recommendation, and I haven't regretted it since then.

What version of windows? For Xp you can use compact.exe /? to find all the switches for the built-in compression utility, but I don't know if it works with anything newer.

Um...no? Starting from the first complaint (Win7 blocks ff.com) and on to the end, I don't know where you're getting that info, but it's just wrong.

I don't play WoW, so perhaps it's something obvious that 'outsiders' don't get- How exactly was the guy supposed to know that the item he received in an email *from Blizzard* wasn't supposed to be used and was a glitch? I mean, I could understand getting banned for purposefully cheating the...

Virtually every time I've had a client have a problem with WSUS it's because the GPOs are set up right. I'd double check- make sure they're 'enabled' as needed, and then audit a test machine to make sure the policy is getting to the machines correctly as well.

I want to trade my 80GB iPod classic for an 80GB Zune, preferably black, but I don't care which colour. If interested, I can post pics of my iPod. It's currently in a plastic anti-scratch case.
