The Washington Post reports that the White House this week saw a mysterious "server outage" that shut down all incoming and outgoing e-mail for more than eight hours. none of the staff were able to send or receive email for an entire day. The use of email in the White House has been heavily debated. Helping to strengthen that sentiment was the server outage disabling email -- troubling, especially since the White House staff didn’t seem to know what caused the problem in the first place.

We still don't know," the help-line guy said, according to the Washington Post. He added that two e-mail servers had been rebooted but that two others remained out of action, with no immediate explanation. He then put the caller on hold and when he came back on the line said he was no longer allowed to discuss the issue.

I'm still seriously hoping Microsoft doesn't release 5 versions. 3 maybe. Releasing 5 is just asking for trouble.

^+1. Starter and Basic are totally un-needed. May be for OEMs only, that'll be OK.

Starter was only released in a few countries anyway. It's a useless OS, it only supports 1GB of RAM.

All of those versions were Debunked as leftovers from Vista. 7 will release in multiple versions, but not the same versions as Vista (don't know the specifics, so it may be more, it may be less).

Yeah, I thought this was already established. The list in the Beta installation is just leftover from Vista.

If intel comes out with the 8 core/16 thread beast, then im sure the next Mac pro will have them. Since my work is in love with mac pros, we will buy a bunch. That means that i will get to operate a machine with theoretical 32 Cores...

Mother of God.
