Those are awesome little boxes. I use one at home and I have them deployed in remote sites. Extremely stable. Remember that those are licensed per user (at least they used to be) so you'll need to find out if it is the 10, 50 or unlimited license. They also come in 2 memory sizes - 256MB and...
I've always found in my testing that 64K has ended up being the happy medium no matter the I/O type. Few gains, if any, found in either direction from there. The only other thing I do specifically now is to use 64K clusters when formatting volumes for MSSQL.
FYI - stealing wifi is a third degree felony in many areas. And posting about !@#$ like that isn't allowed here.
Besides - there are much better places than here to talk about wifi security...
Dytrails, I'm actually doing the same thing where I work. View + Imprivata + Zero clients can't be beat with a stick. You wouldn't believe (actually, working in healthcare you would) how many problems this solution solves for us. And you also probably wouldn't believe how hard I had to fight...
Teradici Zero clients are awesome. With the pcoip management console server setup (free - unlike other vendors) all you have to do is literally pull the thing out of the box and put it on the network. The pcoip mc will automatically configure it and you're good to go. If you need, you can...
You think that's bad, we still have a Data General AViiON in production. When purchased in 1997 it ran NT, it has since been upgraded to Win2K.
All because our management is worthless. We pay a hardware guy a good bit of money to keep this piece of junk running as well. His costs alone would...
Yes you can, howerver each user needs to be configured this way. If you try to have your server route all the mail, you'll run into problems. The reason being that google requires login for SMTP and the user you use to login becomes the sender - changed from the original sender.
The real...
We actually bought a pair of F5 load balancers because of the anticipated release of VXLAN support. We are going to use it to extend our DMZ.
I think that in order for SDN to gain full adoption across the market it will take a bit of help from hardware manufacturers so that SDN will operate...
Cisco has a virtual ASA now as well. I'm not sure if it is suitable for supporting a physical environment though.

Humidity is the problem here. You want 45%. I've even heard of SANs killing themselves in extremely low humidity environments. Low humidity like that is a no go for a datacenter.
Well, not to get too realistic on you - but if you can support a single playable session you've accomplished a great thing. VDI which is essentially what you're doing here isn't designed for this type of use case yet. And don't forget all VMware software comes with a 60 day trial. After that...
Does not matter - XP and 2003 by default do not align the first sector of the partition properly.
Have a look here -
