Well, just as I suspected, I don’t get a fair shake, and can’t get a system to actually participate in the offer put forth by Sun a few days ago.

This is ridiculous. They make what appear to be impossible claims (to me), and then say they’re willing to put the server to the test, but only if you “qualify”.

To quote:

We are sorry, but we have been unable to approve your application for the Sun Fire T2000 CoolThreads server in Sun’s Try and Buy program at this time. This is a result of your application not meeting one or more of the parameters for Sun Fire T2000 CoolThreads Try and Buy Program.

Since he’s closed comments on all his posts, he’ll likely never see my complaint, and my point - I’ll probably NEVER recommend Solaris or Sun hardware again. What does Sun think we are? Donkeys with carrots on a stick?

Heck, I’m all for a revival of the OLD meaning of OSF - Oppose Sun Forever. Hell, I should have stuck with it.

The Boston Globe reports that AT&T (SBC-owned, now) and other telecom companies are pushing for Congress to change the structure of the Internet to allow for a tiered system of bandwidth.

Basically, this means the telecom companies are trying to say you, and other companies, shouldn’t have as much bandwidth as they do, as it’s “unfair” to the telecom companies.

Game

I like both online games I’m currently playing in, but I know I’m spending too much time online, playing them. I don’t want to give either of them up. I really like Liz’s game so far, even if I’ve had little time to dedicate to it. And John’s game, well.. What’s NOT to like about it?

On the other hand, my character hardly needs to be around in John’s game… Liz’s game is in the other end of the spectrum. If I’m not there on game nights, I miss way too much.

Conundrums.
