  1. I am guessing that you are on cable based on the numbers, IF that is the case your provider has written into there agreement a "best effort" clause that allows them to slide a little.

    The only way that I am positive you can know what your true connectivity speeds are is with a frame relay, or business class service with guarentees written into the service.

  2. Internet, if that needs to be explained please go back to school.

    Intranet is a much smaller network that is usually housed within a single building or campus. Examples: multiple computers in your office/home being on a LAN (Local Area Network) that can share files/info without passing outside of the routers, or all of the computers on a campus network where computers in different buildings can share files/info without leaving the domain.

    Anyone have other ideas?

  3. I'm not sure but hasn't Microsoft put a roll-up package out for Beta on this? If that is the case then your life should be a lot easier. Of course, the package is probably going to be the size of a Service Pack when it's all over with. Then the trimming can commence.

  4. In its normal mode for each seperate VHD that the user creates say good-bye to 16GB of space. However, the user can "partition the virtual HD" so that more configurations can be loaded into smaller space. In the places I use this for training we load more than one configuration into each VHD.

    The user will still be able to start all the configurations seperately without impacting the others, if you're worried about that.

  5. And out of all provisional ballots a number between 7 and 20% will be determined to be valid. So......?

    If you want to challenge Ohio, why not also go for Pennsylvania? But keep in mind that Kerry's margin of victory is smaller, than Bush's in Ohio.

  7. OK, let's get past te real quick items.

    Starting with your last question, yes you do copy the CD to your HDD.

    Then these might also mitigate some issues.

    1. Are the files on your HD still "Read Only"? If yes, change the properties.

    2. Are trying to slipstream SP2 into your slipstreamed SP1 disk? Not sure, but you'll need to start with a M$ or OEM original disk.
