SYNACK

I think this is much more down to the superior attitude that Apple users have traditionally had, this has been the status quo for ages and generates a certain amount of fighting back. All those snarky Apple ads about pc vs Mac showed that the same attitude was celebrated by the company and a large chunk of it's userbase. Is it any wonder there is a reaction especially from those forced to shoehorn Apples tech into areas it is not good for by the same snarky fanboys that promote it at all costs especially to those that don't bother to make a considered decision.

At this point I'd be waiting for Baytrail, cheaper, faster, better Asus Transformer Book T100 convertible has quad-core Bay Trail SoC, starts at $349 - The Tech Report

Because a local Exchange Server is soooooooo different from a hosted one, they are pretty much the same only the location, speed and oversight are really different.

As long as you are not holding back the school with it and have other actual decent reasons it is not bad. Even our shiny new 100mbit fibre seems to max out at about 1mbit to the MS servers thanks to NZ's pathetic backbone and international links, let's house all our email off site on that... no thanks. Our 'highly trained' teachers still insist on emailing each other multi megabyte files to each other despite better options, sending that offsite then back again over our link would be madness in the highest degree. It does not help that MS does not dedicate much of anything to NZ so short of a new ceo that can see outside the borders of the usa local services may always be better just because they don't rely so heavily on our (lacking) version of the internet. Edit... we actually agree as you clarified above

I really don't get what is so difficult about it, it's equivalent to someone switching from list view to thumbnail view in the start menu, so you needed to find the start button on the keyboard, how many techs weren't using this in conjunction with the R key to get to run anyway. I get the silly jarring to full screen bit but functionality wise I don't get the issue.

Interesting, I get claustrophobic on anything less than full hd unless dealing with a phone or tablet, half the stuff we use here is developed for taller screens.

Copy them manually to the hd then reinitialize the cache, xp's offline files system sucked, vista, 7 and 8 all do much better jobs of it even though they still have issues. Saying that I had a couple of users with 80gb plus of files in xp offline file sync which worked fine, it did need to be over a wire as wireless is suspect even at the best of times let alone when dealing with xp's implementation of them.

Some people could cope without the redundancy of at least one windows key and a wasted corner of the screen and a slide out one from the right

Sounds like a nps / Nla issue to me, it may be hanging up trying to make sure everyone is who they say they are.

Have a look at mdt it gives you a nice interface to build images.

Always on the same target, could be ram on the target or a corrupted image, can you check the image with ghost tools and on a different target?

Could easily be the room, if it has lots of reflective metal for the rf it may be bouncing around like the noise of letting off a firecracker inside a locker. If the other room is better from an rf perspective this could account for it, could even be a faulty ballast on some overhead lights but as the pollution seemed proportional to the number of clients I think it is something to do with them in that space. WiSpy is a great tool but rather expensive for the 2.4 & 5Ghz one.

Ha!!!!, my Commodore had 64 KILOBYTES which is 64 * 1024 * 8 bits which is 524288 bits / 64 bits = 8192 times better than the new iPhone... what's that, I don't really get it and am completely wrong, well I probably got closer in that misstatement than most of the market Apple is after will ever get to understanding what the actual deal is.

Your not running tkip encryption are you, if so try aes as that is hardware accelerated in the ruckus gear. Also do the clients have 5Ghz ability, enabling both and steering it more to the 5Ghz range will give a better result as well as lowering the collisions from all having to use the same band and channel. You could also try and get a packet capture and see if one or more laptops has a damaged wireless card that is spewing rubbish. They could also all have their radios turned up really loud and the signal bounce alone would pollute the environment enough to cause collisions.

It is totally revolutionary, imagine how much easier it is going to be now to compromise a phone. Just pull a perfect print off that shiny touch screen or back and use it on the built in sensor. Thanks Apple, all that security and privacy was getting tedious, thanks for stepping up and removing it entirely. Oh and I love the new look, more simple and clean without so much garnish, it reminds me of something, oh, that's right Windows Phone

These people are nice and cheap for ssl certs https://www.rapidsslonline.com/ seem to have decent trust compatibility also.

You aren't using the Intel management tools per chance, their vpro stuff has some features like this.

Have you tried turning off gpu video acceleration in flash, they never really got that right and it can crash the display driver.

They are but obviously not as bad as the excuse for a Tapatalk app they have thrown together for windows phone which said it failed to post at all.

are terrible... There I finished that sentence for you, now if you are reflashing them to something like open-wrt that may be different.

Does anyone else remember when the us used to be ahead of the curve and seemed to be the source of lots of the education specific developments, what happened, does technology conflict with creationalisum.

Hence the network admins membership that should allow them to do it, it's just adding more gear can add more issues, like when they bin them because they try to use them at McDonald's and the don't work. Hell we have had teachers steal wlan cards out of the inside of laptops.

Option 1 should generally work if you can add them to the network operators group and make sure it is added as a machine not per user wan, you may also need to make sure it is not using one of those bundled retarded wlan management apps some vendors like that can cause the connection to take longer. Would only go the other route if there was no other option.

Is that the yellow light of death from the gpu doing the same thing early 360s did? Ps3 Yellow Light of Death

The play to feature is good, I use it at home all the time and it uses the DLNA standard, the W7 implementation is way better, they messed it horribly in 8 even though it looks the same on the surface.
