"Or you could just use SBS, accomplish the same thing"

LOL....this was built in Oct of 2007 so SBS 2003 which does not support more than 75 users, and wont allow Terminal Server for applications to be used, unless you HACK the registry and break security (TS users on a domain controller) would just NOT work. Besides if you have supported Quickbooks Enterprise in a TS configuration you would know it likes to suck the life out of a server so it works best having the its own server VM or other wise.

If I were to build it today I may use the SBS 2008....but doubtful since its brand new and like to let the amateurs like your self test it on your customers flush out the problems on their dime (Fleecing at work) help MS patch it. Further more I would not use Hyper V at this time for the very same reason. VMware is proven and has a huge customer base to prove it.

A year from now post 2008 SP1/R2 and Hyper V updates I might consider a full MS solution....maybe. So who SUCKS at IT?

So Ocean, first you say: "Attack the argument, not the messenger."

Later, you say: "subzerointelligence"

Care to reconcile?

"What the Borg says, the little borgs mimick. Just sheep towing the company lines. "

:-) You have a nice imagination. You should make a movie. You might become famous like Michael Moore.

OT:

BTW Eric Schmidt seems to have played his cards well. If he becomes the US CTO, that might not be good news for Microsoft there and may be the best thing to happen to Apple and Google.

"DRWAM is still talking about that awesome sub $400 laptop. Which, by the way...is damn nice laptop and runs great!"

Straight from the horse's mouth. Vista runs great on a new $400 laptop. Any Leopard love [sic] from Cupertino at that price?

Apple: *crickets*

"I setup a Windows 2003 R2 DC, 2003 R2 File server, 2003 R2 Terminal Server (for quickbooks enterprise), and a 2003 R2 x64 Exchange 2007 all on that one box in VM's for a client. A small company in a box. The hardware is pretty cheap, build a second one, backup and restore the VM's to the second box for a offline standby."

Or you could just use SBS, accomplish the same thing, make it easier on yourself, while making more money on managed services, and save your client thousands upon thousands of dollars in software fees.

My assumptions were correct: You DO suck at IT. You seem to be pretty good at fleecing customers though. Do you work for Apple by any chance?

"Waethorn is still trying to convince everybody that Canada is an actual country, and not just the 51st state of the USA."

No - Iraq is. Just ask Bush.

"Because I can't believe some of the outrageous tabloid sensationalism littering the posts and comments."

Yours notwithstanding, I'm sure.

Will someone please point out how hardcore pc fans differ from hardcore mac fans.

Why do you guys talk about *people*?

Computers are so much more interesting.

Because I can't believe some of the outrageous tabloid sensationalism littering the posts and comments. Not to mention the hypocrisy of the author and the follower fanboys.

The irony in some of your posts is hillarious, I really do hope you go back and read them after you post. It's good for a great laugh. If you hate it so much then why do you need to feel the need to troll? Is macrumors not good enough? Up for a challenge?

@runner7775: "And to everyone complaining about the content of this blog, it is Paul's and he can blog about what he wants."

Of course it is and he can. But that doesn't mean he can just post Apple-bashing posts, and go on and on about it, in a biased manner, without anyone pointing it out. One can't go through life so oblivious to facts with others helping them along the way.

@tayme: "Come on people...get over it. They are just computers" Yes, just some a lot better than others.

Wow tayme is right guys, they're just computers!

And to everyone complaining about the content of this blog, it is Paul's and he can blog about what he wants.

Btw, have had some good experiences with the beta of windows 7, interface felt very responsive.

"did I miss anything"

Not much.

- The blog posts are extremely biased.

- Apple hatred, bashing and general anti-Apple posts are still a high priority here.

- The Microsoft fanboys are one-eyed, one-sided and still refusing to see the truth in many matters. They post one thing, but when shown another side, they completely ignore it. That's the definition of fanboy right there.

- The blog's fanboys, mikegalos et al are still pushing the Microsoft lines. What the Borg says, the little borgs mimick. Just sheep towing the company lines.
