      Clearly has no idea how to write software. This question makes no sense if he had any idea what he was asking. How does anything he mentioned play into his question?

      Reminds me of users who give me a 5 minute life-story of irrelevant information when describing their problem.

        I can't stand people who won't stop talking long enough for me to tell them how to fix their problem.

              Having dealt with RDSH and understanding multipoint server I dont know why Microsoft insists on using these USB terminals.

              RDSH would be much more ideal, running in the cloud. But 16Gb of RAM is only good for 10 to 15 every day users, from what I have experienced. He would need 64GB of RAM and hella good SSD disk configuration for the i/o.

              The CPU share does amazingly well.

              But yeah he is looking for a miracle. The more chrome/web/video you do the more demand on the system as well.

                Because they are the point of it. The idea is to be silly and physically limited so that making it cheap makes sense..

                  That's the thing, if it worked well, they couldn't sell it so cheaply.

                    Does anyone in IT even know what a database is any more? I feel like every single thread about databases results in one single discussion explaining what a database is. And has anyone ever used Access knowing what it is? I feel like the one requirement of using Access is that you have no idea what you chose or why.

                      Look at the second screenshot. If you didn't know anything, "Blank Desktop Database" would make you think you're creating the database with Access; thus making you believe you have an "Access Database."

                            Need your assistance with the following connection for the equipment to be delivered and installed Dec. 09 
                            
                            Due to the built-in servo amplifier and frequency converter the 
                            machines can not be connected directly to an IT network. 
                            The IT network must be converted to a TN-S network by an isolating 
                            transformer. The machine is connected to the TN-S network.
                            
                            This is going to a manufacturing machine, but can anybody shed some light as to what I am looking at here?

                              Definitely doesn't look or sound like Access is the database in any way. It looks like a tool for making databases, which is exactly how MS describes it on the right. And they point out that Access can connect to many databases, including cloud ones. Making it extra clear that Access isn't the database.

                                Even if they don't know anything, it never looks like it is the database. People using Excel don't confuse Excel the application with the spreadsheet files. Why is Access getting confused in this really weird way?

                                  You sure about that? I'd guess over half of my users say they have Excel spreadsheets rather than spreadsheets.

                                        Why are they using an isolating transformer rather than just a standard flux capacitor?

                                            Literal excerpt from a ticket.

                                            
                                            Need your assistance with the following connection for the equipment to be delivered and installed Dec. 09 
                                            
                                            Due to the built-in servo amplifier and frequency converter the 
                                            machines can not be connected directly to an IT network. 
                                            The IT network must be converted to a TN-S network by an isolating 
                                            transformer. The machine is connected to the TN-S network.
                                            
                                            This is going to a manufacturing machine, but can anybody shed some light as to what I am looking at here?
                                            

                                            Why are they using an isolating transformer rather than just a standard flux capacitor?

                                            Because, the flux capacitor can only be put in with a left-handed screw driver. Most people don't have those.
