Hey Jen,
I use a mix of php and html. PhP is great for db apps. My site uses IMP
for web based mail, I have a LDAP search written in PHP, and also use it
for session id's and htaccess. Commonly MySQL is the db preference of PHP
users but I have found good success with Postgres.

What's wrong with dd'ing an image and browse|change|whatever-ing it
On the subject of annoying installs ...
One thing that I've seen a lot of in the Windows world is imaging products
like Ghost and ImageCast -- basically, the make an image of a hard disk and

as could be.

Yeah, there's a class-action lawsuit against Compaq about their mobile
computers, too, I believe. I'd never buy a laptop from them. I'm not sure
I'd buy a workstation from them. But their servers are pretty decent.
On the other hand, I might buy a laptop or a workstation from Dell or
Gateway,
It's a shame you had to have an attorney. Having worked in a call center
that did support for both Hitachi and Micron, the rule of thumb was 3 HW
problems and a new unit automatically. Also, low paid TS staff (with minimal
knowledge) is the norm for these big companies (esp if support is

We stopped buying Dell servers because their hard drives pop out randomly
(we had two server rooms mostly filled with Dells -- about once a month,
we'd get this beeping sound that meant a RAID controller lost track of a
drive, which was fixed by reseating the drive.). Also, when we decided to

I decided to start out with postgresql - if I'm
learning something new I may as well go with the

So I have sucessfully installed it, and I reviewed
