I’m one of those IT guys who utilize a Packeteer because with 200 people in our office and 100 of them streaming internet radio (let’s see hmm 100 people using 1% of the internet each… you do the math, that’s called CHOKED INTERNET). So rather than hear people complain about slow internet, we would rather make sure REAL work – PRODUCTIVE internet traffic like MAIL, FTP, WEB work. Why is that so hard for you people to get?

I 100% agree… its simply not good enough to ship brand new hardware out of the factory without a fully functioning RSA II adapter.

Comment on Virtualisation, Disaster Recovery and Licence Servers by Eric K. Miller

We’ve successfully virtualized software with USB dongles that are connected to a Digi USB->IP box that installs virtual USB drivers in the VM to access the remote USB dongle.

We’re actually looking for an equivalent Parallel->IP box at the moment, which is how I ran across this blog entry.

Well, it’s now August 2008 and I have a server still receiving this message several times per day. Just makes me wonder what all Trend is doing since a major service is down all of the time.

C’mon Trend, get your crap together and take care of your clients.

Just another example — Microsoft had abandoned common sense for management by committee.
