Cisco comes out of switch closet with Catalyst

Stop

No thanks

Yeah...I'm missing the point, too.

Why not just run the cable? I'd rather run the cable than add another switch in a location that isn't a wiring closet. This just adds another device that could break.

The only use I see for this is if you already have drops installed in a room and don't want to run more cable. But, that's lazy and creates a mess.

Keep the switches in the closets, please.

EU telecoms to Apple, Google: 'Pay up!"

RE: Fail

Now that's not very socialist of you...

The government is supposed to hand out money to those who aren't honest, don't prepare, and don't think. Why be responsible when the government can just bail you out?

What a joke...

'Cesar Alierta, CEO of Spain's Telefónica, said earlier this year that Google, Yahoo!, and others "use Telefónica's networks for free, which is good news for them and a tragedy for us," adding "That can't continue."'

Solution: Block Google, Yahoo!, and the others from your network if you think they're taking advantage of you. What's that? You need them? Stop complaining then.

You're kidding

Right? I'm sure that satellite would have to move at least a few hundred light years to get a different view angel.

Very good pictures, though.
