I have saved over $40k going to this architecture thus far, and had I needed to license VirtualCenter it would have only added maybe $3k more. You should also look into Cloud Servers, which are virtual servers hosted by Rackspace (http://www.mosso.com/cloudservers.jsp). It's like having a server that you manage via remote access: exactly what I'm doing in effect with the leafe.com and dabodev.com server, now that I'm half a continent away. It costs pennies per hour; an average size server is about $40/month, and the cheapest is around $12/month, and you have full root access to it. Best of all, if you get a spike in traffic, it automatically expands to handle that extra bandwidth, and you only pay for what you use. Contrast with physical servers that you house on-site: if the traffic to them spikes, you either a) lose business or b) pay a lot for extra capacity up-front that you may never need. BTW, every email from this list passes through my cloud server. If you are a Dabo user, every web update call runs through it, too, as well as all the browserless web app traffic. It was a cheap way to get a fixed IP address that I can use as a relay, and a very cheap way of getting much more reliability than I can get from my personal RoadRunner account. I'm slowly moving more and more of the services on my physical box to the cloud server, with the goal of shutting down that server before we sell the house. -- Ed I am considering the combination of 6 servers at this time.

So what you do is get a Linux setup on the Rackspace cloud, set up VMWare server and a remote console to it. Then install Windows to a VMWare host on that server. Or, evaluate migrating to PostgreSQL, Firebird, MySQL, or another free enterprise-class database server and eliminate the hassle and overhead of maintaining a Windows host simply to provide a database server. If you do install Windows in this way, make sure you either shut down the Server and Workstation services as they cause lots of unneeded chatter on the network which you'll probably get dinged for. Maybe the best way to avoid chatter and protect the SQL Server installation would be to set the firewall on the Linux host to *only* allow port 1433 in and out to the Windows VM.

Re: VFP9: Runtime
This is true. Years ago with FoxproDos we experimented with having the libraries and our EXE on the local workstation and found that it made very little or no performance difference and was not worth the support effort. We always install the dll ocx with our EXE and it has worked with every fox version through vfp9 sp1. You do need to register many of the dll and ocx on every local machine, but they can be located on the server. We find the single most important factor in performance with vfp (and our program of course) is the amount of memory you have. There are a lot of rumors out there about how much memory you can have on this or that os. We put 4 gb on xp sp2 and we find that it will show at least 3.35 gb and so it is worth the cost if you need performance. Fox is a memory hog, so you may realize decreased performance on the startup because it is loading programs, however, once your program is running, we find the performance is much improved. We have done a lot of tests (with our software only) over the years. - Original Message - From: Rick Schummer To: profox@leafe.com Sent: Tuesday, June 23, 2009 9:35 AM Subject: RE: VFP9: Runtime The runtimes have to be installed on the client machine(s).

After you answer these question there will probably not be much room for opinion. -- 2006 article states that DNA is in thousand $ range. http://www.commondreams.org/headlines06/0921-08.htm Other sites on paternity state that the high cost is for proof of sample being secure through the whole process, or security of sample costs as much as the base test does. So should this be only for the rich? If you can afford it you pay for it at an approved lab? Sucks if you have not had a job in 20 years because you have been in jail that long. Or do you let the people who can pay for it go first? Then when that volume is null then put in the poor folks? I know it is the American Way!

Generating GUIDs for primary keys in your app (VFP9SP2)
I like to design in n-tier fashion, so that I can use either a VFP or non-VFP (like MySQL) backend on the flip of a switch. I'm creating a new framework that will use GUID primary keys instead of integers. My question is this: is it best to generate those GUIDs from the app or use some stored proc in the database? I'm thinking the former should suffice, but of course I have slight concern of some freak occurrence of the same string key.

Re: Generating GUIDs for primary keys in your app (VFP9SP2)

What kind of performance penalty is there compared to integers when doing joins?

RE: Generating GUIDs for primary keys in your app (VFP9SP2)
I generate them in the app, so my app is as database-agnostic as possible. Me too. Saves me time maintaining different code bases in different stored procedure languages. I also like controlling the timing of the keys so I can use and propagate as needed.

Like I said, I am a third party to this process, but I am running a rackspace device that has on it SQL Server 2005, and VFP 9 SP2 latest hotfixes (which we loaded) and some data, programs, etc. I remote desktop into this cloud server/site/box. Maybe this is a managed hosting device instead of a virtual machine, but the arrangement smells a lot like the one you get from the Amazon cloud.

Bad/missing HAL.DLL
*Since the movers brought my Desktop PC to my new office, the PC has been slow, etc. **Machine seemed to be ok; but when Selecting [Safe Mode], two choices: * * *Window XP Professional* * *Window (default)* *The OEM **Support said that this means I have two operating systems. * *I asked PowerSpec -- the OEM -- to do a total restore with their OEM Recovery DVD. They had me delete the Master Boot Record. Then Quick Restore ** They had me do another quick recovery. Afterwards, same two choices in Safe Mode. I looked in [boot.ini]: * [boot loader] default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS [operating systems] multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT=Microsoft Windows XP Professional /noexecute=optin /fastdetect *I then search for an [ini] file with [WINNT]. In addition to [boot.ini] there were two for drivers in C:\Powerspec\Drivers\MB\ATI_RC4\Driver: * * *C2_3159.INI* * *CX_3159.INI* *Support said either: * * *Bad hardrive* * *Bad cable * *I see these options: * * *Use Recovery Console from UC's XP CD and EXPAND hal.dll from CD's i386* * *From UC's CD and Recovery Console, **bootcfg /rebuild* * *From UC's CD and Recovery Console, **fixmbr* * *From UC's CD do a Clean Install * * *Try another cable* * *Test/New Harddrive* * *New Machine * *Anything else?
