I'm watching this topic, does that help?

That requires that those same people first have a vision of where they are going. More often than not I see people being lead by a vendor/product they choose without taking the requirements of said product into consideration.

CacheCade is a cache, it decides what stays there in the same way that the RAID cache has always decided that and in the same way that the OS decides what to cache.

Awww.. Thanks for that! CacheCade is Dell, what does HP have?

And... Why are you stuck with a BB?

Agreed, sounds like it's time for a reinstall.

Wow.. Windows 8 is only 18 months old - this does seem kind of quick to me. But yeah when you consider that Windows 7 is 5 years old this year I suppose it makes sense.

And @scottalanmiller who, besides you and NTG, Truely buys into the Windows vision? No company large or small I know of stays anywhere near on top of things like Windows versions. LOL a thought question, not a real one.

I'm interested if you're still looking for volunteers.

Are towers always cheaper?

I can't say always, but in my experience with HP's they have been.

Does VMWare just know how to use CacheCade and other Caching tech to make your servers faster? or do you have to tell it how to set it up? Assuming the VM's are 100's of gigs in size, the Cachecade I'm guessing is only a few gigs, how does it decide what goes where?

I figure that I'd need about $3.1M to retire.

That's a more reasonable number.

For a couple, yeah 3.1M at 4% assuming you don't want to eat into the base would probably be enough - assuming you have no other debt. Damn, saving $3k/month to get there, Ouch!

I guess I don't understand how this works, can you break it down for the less informed?

Does the newer OWA handle access to other people's Calendars as easy as Outlook does? I'm more than a bit behind on the Exchange curve (Exchange 2010, no SP).

I don't think it will be dead for probably another 10+ years, but it will get there eventually.

I've been thinking about getting my wife a paperwhite Kindle. She had a Gen 1 (stepped on and broke) and now has a gen 3 no keyboard that she loves.

Thanks I'll give these a try after lunch.

While I I think things like this are cool, SMBs looking to save some funds can save several hundred by purchasing a tower and installing a shelve. The towers are always less expensive than the rack version, and the shelve probably cost less too. Granted not as soon line, but for $500+ savings...

@scottalanmiller what if you are using NFS for VMWare storage?

If you'd liked to translate that into English I might be able to answer your question,

I've never coded more than a "hi mom" HTML page, so I don't know what Jquery is nor how to use it.

What's worse, I have no idea how limited I will be on what I can use. This 'code' is being loaded into a frame on our EHR vendors system to generate legal documents for us to print. The page where we put our information does not indicate how deep into HTML we can go.

Yes, I agree - people just think it will never happen to them. How easy they forget!

My friend had one of these at their old house. He seemed to like it.

So you would use NFS on the LAN?
