  1. Well, if you accept quantum theory, you have to accept non-empirical evidence as in the quantum world observation alters the outcome.
  2. Please look at this: Critical thinking: an introduction ... - Google Books There are plenty of examples where empirical evidence doesn't fit, for example in mathematical proof.
  3. Free - MS Virtual PC, VirtualBox, VMWare Server. Paid for - VMWare Workstation.
  4. Try running the re-index and diagnostic check database patch (6635), it fixed our problems with SIMS running slow after upgrade. Also check your firewall settings on the new server.
  5. Hmm, this might come in usefull, think we'll deploy it from 1st April next year ;-)
  6. Now you've got downloads working, have a look here
  7. Nice to know, glad you got it sorted :-)
  8. No data on mine. I set up the support agreement on a previous school agreement though, so I probably would need to do it again.
  9. You could also try the Technet number, 0800 281 221.
  10. Just did it through the UK support number, 0844 800 2400. It was about 18 months ago though, so knowing MS they've changed the process! If you're still having difficulty after that, try the online concierge chat, I've found them to be very good when I'm getting muppetry off the call centre.
  11. You need to go through the process to set up a support contract over the phone first, you'll then get a support contract number which is what they'll be after.
  12. Yep, that's the one.
  13. You need your Technet Subscription Number. Log into Technet, go to My Account and it's it's the subscription number there that you need.
  14. What exactly are you trying to do? Folder redirection of documents is done through GPO in User Configuration, Policies, Windows Settings, Folder Redirection. Right click on the folder you want to redirect and set the path. Make sure the policy is applying to the user you are redirecting, not the machine.
  15. Haha, they're only just warming up! The thread is only 8 pages long, think there has been one 70+ pages on here before about this topic. Come on Mark & James, I'm sure you can break the 100 pages barrier and still get nowhere, you're really not trying hard enough yet ;-)
  16. Call it FlashGames, might get used then ;-)
  17. DFS - yes, it's set up per share. Internet access can be routed so it's not through the vpn, you would set up an ip route for the head office/branch office link and a default route which point to the internet. Depends on the equipment for this, but it can be done.
  18. Sounds a good plan, few things you've got to be careful of with adsl though. First is that it's asynchronous, so the upload speed is much slower than the download speed, especially if you are a distance from the exchange, which is going to limit the speed of the vpn to the upload speed, rather than the faster download speed. You also have contention ratio issues, which on business adsl is usually 20:1. Finally a lot of business adsl isn't unlimited usage, so you get surcharges which can build up considerably if you go over your monthly allowance.
  19. Depends on your definition of dogma, if you mean it as the fundamental core of faith, for example the Nicene Creed, then I disagree. If you mean it as the drivel spouted by extreme religious nutters, then I agree :-)
  20. True, the problem is a lot of job applications have Microsoft certification as a requirement, so you don't get past the tick box HR droids without it.
  21. No, it's blaming religion for the problems that's irrelevant, your argument was that if we were all atheist then the world would be a better place. What I'm saying is that the problems are caused by a lack of respect for fellow human beings, this happens with religious people or atheists.
  22. Yep, only one way to settle this......FIGHT!!!!
  23. The problem with your argument there is that it's not religion causing those problems, it's the human species. You can direct the same issues towards many governments, tribes and individuals whether atheist or religious. For instance, your comment about 'the prevention of disease and unwanted pregnancy' I presume is about the Catholic stance on the use of condoms and Africa? Well, the main problem is not the contraception, it's the way women are mistreated and abused, quite often with tacit support of government and tribal leaders. In many areas, it is mission charities which are providing the education and support to help prevent this, often facing great hostility. 'IMO, the sooner we can unshackle ourselves from this old ideas, the sooner we will overcome the inconsistencies in our world' Unless you believe in creationism, atheism came before religion, so atheism is the old idea ;-)
  24. Not all Christians believe the Bible to be infallible, it's mainly Evangelical Christians who believe this. It's something I have a problem with, as I can't see this being the case as a lot of it was handed down through verbal re-telling, plus it's been translated and different interpretations put on it.
