You know, I could probably bring in a 60 mhz pentium win95 machine to
work. It could network, do word processing, browse fine, and print just
fine. The problem is, bringing that on to my work's network is playing with
their security. Unfortunately the older computers are not that secure, and
network security would find a Win95 machine on the network and hunt the
person down and demand them to remove it probably within hours.
This is a fun contest, but playing with another person's network or
endangering your job is a whole other matter.
I know what some are saying "Well, program or develop, or get those
extra points".
Hey, work is their time, after work is your time. Let's not even figure
work into the equation ok? We just take it for granted that we all have to
make a living, and leave it at that.
Besides, some will be able to connect to DSL and high speed networks
easier than others. And those others may pick up programming as a way to
catch up. There will be plenty to work with without throwing work into the
mix.
Get what I'm saying?
Here is one suggestion to play into all this. Work is their time. You
use their stuff. It is for WORK. The Pre-March 1993 machine is for YOUR
time.
So that said, nothing of YOUR time can be done on the work computer.
Hey, work may really appreciate this too. So no receiving of personal mail,
chatting, or surfing. That is done on the 1993 computer. No transferring
from the work PC to the 1993 computer, and no printing your stuff on the
work computer. No listening to MP3's on the work computer or CD's, anything
for you.
There, sound more reasonable? You want something done for YOU, you do it
on YOUR 1993 or before computer.
