It is only $10 cheaper in the states and between duty and shipping I would save nothing. Plus the time it can take to get through the border its probably just easier to wait.

IncredibleLast time I was looking around Edmonton for jobs there was only one place that used VB a lot and they were working on phasing it out as soon as possible. If you were still in Edmonton I wouldn't mind setting up a group to try and further C++ skills also, I mainly work in C++ but finding interesting stuff out is always fun.

22 GB of free GMail storageI just tried it out and set my year to 2090 and it told me I have 6.696968 MB of storage, and then my virus scanner crashed and I am over 2000 weeks late for many meetings.

VS 2005 on 64-bit XPI'm not using 64 bit windows anymore, but I was for awhile and had no problems developing .Net and C++ apps to run on both 64 and 32 bit processors off of it. I found that Visual Studio was one of the few programs I used that gave me no problems at all. The only reason I switched back was that I had a ton of issues with other programs and drivers.

Kaspersky Antivirus - experiences?With the version of Kaspersky we had at my last job I found that while it was decent in finding viruses it was responsible for extremely high use of memory and processor time whenever I was doing anything. This wasn't just perceived I actually mapped it out using performance monitor and every file operation and program launch Kaspersky would eat up over 50% of processor for 30 seconds to a minute. That may only have been because of the way our administrator set it up, and he would not let me change any settings in order to try and find a better balance.

Programming Convention Survey of the dayNumber one makes the most sense to me.

another preference question....If you want to bring it up with the team again, and I would personally, the name of the pattern that you use is called Resource Acquisition Is Initialization. The best reason for using this pattern, in my opinion, is that it is exception safe. If an exception happens it the object will be cleaned up automatically when the destructor is called, without you having to specifically needing to call the cleanup method. A quick google search for RAII will bring up plenty of reasons to discuss with your team should you ever find yourself in that argument again.

Corrupt DownloadsIf it is an nForce 4 motherboard and he installed the firewall that comes with the motherboard, uninstall the firewall only use the network drivers provided. The firewall and other networking software, aside from the nic drivers, that are supplied with the nForce 4 chipsets have been know to cause this exact problem.
