If Jobs had stayed at Pixar, Apple wouldn't be where it is today ... and vice versa. --- OpenStack for Africa: http://signup.kili.io Musings: https://twitter.com/varud About Adam: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson On Sun, Jun 9, 2013 at 9:15 AM, Steve Obbayi <steve(a)sobbayi.com> wrote: > If we use your logic then that would exactly be where the problem is, > Apple relying on putting all its "apples" in one basked (Steve Jobs). > Contrast that with Samsung? > > Pixar on the other hand was another of Jobs' greats, he left and Pixar has > continued to blossom.

Internet connectivity issues
by Peter Osotsi 07 Jun '13

Hi posters, I have an alvarion IDU that's taken me to hell n back. I can connect directly to the internet on a PC but it won't connect via the router, apparently all the routers I have tried have borne no fruit. When we try in other offices, separately, the router work fine. I've tried new cabling to no avail. The led on the radio equipment are normal. Tafadhali naomba wana skunkers wanisaidie. Peter.
