Not trying to be a troll but the thing that jumped out at me was the P/E listed for P&G and my mind immediately compared it to the FB P/E at the IPO.

Both H (Bill Hewlett) and P (Dave Packard) were at Stanford prior to WW2. And Silicon Valley pre-dates the Internet era. See Fairchild Semiconductor, The Treacherous Eight, etc.

Even if Cisco was running open source code they could still put ALL of this language into this agreement. The difference would be you could see the actual mechanism in work if they had open source code. The egregious part is the language, not the implementation.

If I have 1000Mbits to send then gigE is 10 times faster. But in the article we are transferring only 2k across the network. Mixing latency and bandwidth here. The latency to send 2k across an empty network isn't 10 times greater on a fastE versus gigE network, right?

This may be ignorant and please correct if I am off base but given the same physical medium isn't sending 2k across the network the same cost whether you are at fastE or gigE? Given the network is not saturated?

Wpscan is an incredibly easy tool to use for both good and bad. It makes it very easy to brute force logins.

I am too lazy to look it up but is there an equivalent mark-up on Dell branded memory?

Woah, in one sentence you claim about PHP devs feeling the need to go OO and then the next sentence you extol the virtues of ZF? ZF is all OO, all the time.

Isn't this a drop in the (tax write-off) bucket for them?

Then somebody will come out with a free app that does the something or better than the paid app. Lather, rinse, repeat. Blah.
