Glad to see this case getting some love. I ordered it last week. I noticed you guys are all using modular PSU's, would you call that a requirement for the case?

Unfortunately no. Here is the issue - definitely an issue with Win 8.1 just not sire how to get around it http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/06/windows-8-1-and-high-ppi-displays-better-but-still-lacking/

Perhaps a bit of an odd request but I need some help finding a decent external display for my Surface Pro 2. The problem is with how Windows 8.1 renders. My understanding is that it renders using the highest dpi display (SP2) causing text and what not to appear blurry on the lower quality...

Spent my friday refreshing the lab. New server has 2 quad core Xeons, 20 GB of RAM and 16 NICs, hoping it'll carry me through CCIE v5

I was actually wondering about this, is that true, can someone else confirm? I guess it doesn't matter I can't even play the game for 15 minutes without it crashing. I've started at least 5 cities and within 15 minutes it crashes and I when I try to load them it says no cities created.

Thanks man! That was actually my next question. Will Lightroom or Aperture be a worthwhile purchase with the camera, looks like you answered it for me. Thank you for your reply as well. I'm not too worried about going $20 over, I'll check out that camera as well.

I hate to be 'that guy' but I really need help buying a camera. For a bit of background the nicest camera we have is an iPhone 4, so that tells you pretty much all you need to know. Anyway, we're getting ready to have our first kid and my wife's blog is picking up a lot of steam so she feels...

Any chance you are running DFS? Is that service started? Check inheritance, I've seen some weird stuff happen when a file server doesn't go down cleanly. Edit: Maybe I should read the OP....scratch the inheritance option. On the root of G: can you create a new share and share that out...

We name every PC. AD description usually has the username if it is a single user machine. Inventory software keeps track of warranty, model, and everything else. Location-Department-pcnumber DC-IT-PC01 or DC-IT-LT01 datacenter-itdept-pc#01 Then if there is a problem you know the physical...

We use postfix on an Ubuntu box for this.

Cool thanks for the info. I spoke too soon because this morning I'm getting the error again 'No client connection to SRM Server for Remote' Request failed because the remote server took too long to respond. Not sure what is going on.

Wow, thanks for the offer! I was able to get it taken care of, but I do appreciate that. Today on a whim I went through the 'break connection' and started over...it worked! One question for everyone - is it safe to use domain accounts with SRM? We have 1 physical DC and the rest are...

No the sites are actually in the same building and then will be connected via private fiber (no VPN or NAT) once it moves to production. I've got a call scheduled with VMware but they keep pushing it back :mad:

I'm building out an SRM 5.1 environment and keep getting the following error when the primary site tries to connect to the secondary - 'The request failed because the remote server (secondary SRM IP) took too long to respond.' Any thoughts on what might be causing this? If I try the...

Yep. I can post pictures of the junk, but that is about it.
