Re: lets all get stupid

Just what you need, another middle man, a place for data to get lost or stolen, especially when the data you collect is Drivers Licence Numbers, SS#'s, Birth dates, Addresses, and More.

While were at it, why don't we invent a service that allows you to access your Virtual Desktop over a wirelessly connected laptop, that's tethered to a cell phone which communicates with a tower that communicates with a satellite that forwards your data to a warehouse for storage that sends you data to its intended target. This service to me is both redundant, not worth it financially, and simply an extra hole that data must pass through where it may encounter problems getting to its destination.

I mean heck a server for a small business doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg and doesn't need to be made from the top of the line most recent rig. Nor does it need to use Windows, It can use completely open source software Such as Open Office, with Linux, and a GUI similar to what the employees are familiar with.

If the company is so small they can't afford a hardware server of their own, they won't be able to afford this service either. Unless it's like 5 dollars a month.

Seriously, this service might be useful for small businesses who don't want or can't invest in servers, software licensing, etc to run their business.

A friend of mine works in a small insurance shop with his mother and they have been checking out back-office services offered by third parties. You install their client and basically RDP into a remote desktop session that runs the software....(can't recall the name of the service)..

Might also be handy for grandma/pa that don't want to hassle with setting up a PC and configuring it to get on the web.....

Personally, I would rather have me own box and software...

ya take away the persons freedom to invent , have fun where they want and totally commercialize it and overprice everything.

ya like the bell canada pvr that allows external hd's sound good?
well at 130$ for the programming youd want to put there
is triple the cost of the internet with a phone and the cheapest package from TSI ( 200GB cap)
that gets me 200GB a month compared to paying more.

The current trend is not to have smarter people but sheep that are blind and stupid to do anyhting but what they are told.

YOU won't be able to look stuff up on a net, youwill be adverted to as they see fit, control control.

Didn't hitler envision this?
and doomed to fail this is , where can i get my music , that tv episode or other stuff thats free. ( and im not only talking aobut what pirates say is free anyhting pre 1958 in canada = no copyright :50YEARS)
