by @ Thursday, May 26th, 2005. Filed under general

More from McVoy. You may recall my previous post pointing to a Forbes article about BitKeeper. It sounds like Larry is speaking out more. In fact the title is a quote from Larry. Here is the article http://www.forbes.com/execpicks/2005/05/26/cz_dl_0526linux.html Some more gems But McVoy says it is simply not possible for an innovative software company to […]

He had been letting […]

What makes Microsoft great…

by @ Saturday, May 21st, 2005. Filed under general

Many people think I hate Microsoft because I can be harsh concerning how they do things. Many other people think that I am in love with Microsoft and a cheerleader because I point out that I am a Microsoft MVP. The answer, as with many things, is somewhere in between. I point out things I […]

Windows Server Cookbook

by @ Saturday, May 21st, 2005. Filed under tech

I meant to post this previously, the Windows Server Cookbook is now available. For those who wonder, why does joe care? I care because I was technical reviewer for it and also I wrote chapter 17 which is a chapter on Exchange with several Exchange scripts. Personally I think the chapter is well written and […]

Like I said… Tana Lost…

by @ Saturday, May 21st, 2005. Filed under rants

As you will recall from my previous blog http://blog.joeware.net/2005/05/08/11/ I forecast that Tana lost due to how she treated her team. Call me Nostradamus or something, but if you saw the season finale of The Apprentice, she did indeed lose and it was all about how she treated her team. She knew she was losing […]

joeware website fixes

by @ Friday, May 13th, 2005. Filed under general

Some of you may have noticed that various links were screwed up and some pages were displaying odd characters at the end of the page. This occurred when I had to quickly jump from one web provider to another. At the same time I changed the URL for the forum and the ftp program I […]

Active Directory Property Set Madness

by @ Tuesday, May 10th, 2005. Filed under tech

Let’s talk property sets… I have ranted about them before but got reminded again today about how much I like them and hate them and figured, I will blow off steam and rant and see if anyone feels the same and is willing to respond. Property sets are an amazingly great idea. I mean really, […]

Ebay and Google Books

by @ Monday, May 9th, 2005. Filed under rants

I went to Border’s tonight because my g/f wanted to pick up some books. So in the meanwhile I thought, hmm, let’s check out the computer selection. I walk around and what do I see but 3-4 shelves of books dedicated to Ebay shopping and selling. Do we *really* need 3-4 shelves worth of those […]
