Ubuntu switched to Unity, which is as bad as it gets. GNOME was WAY better!
No disagreement there. But that Unity is the worst and Gnome is better doesn't say much for Gnome. I still put it towards the bottom of any list of desktops. Especially with KDE taking back the lead in quality for the big, heavy desktops from it.
Cinnamon, MATE, KDE, LXDE and several others come way before Gnome for me.
Thankfully desktop environments are all a matter of preference. š
I agree that the term "unlimited" is often abused though. I don't know if it's the same in the US, but we had a big problem over here with ISPs offering "unlimited" internet usage that was actually capped. I think the term was "Unlimited - subject to fair usage policy" where fair usage was an arbitrary figure set by the ISP.
Is that not protected by the Trades Description Act?
The Whole MDM concept isn't new to exchange (though it may be to office 365). ActiveSync for exchange has had most of these features. I think they are just promoting it hoping you will want more managment.
Nintendo's last (maybe only) good controller was the SNES controller. That was excellent. Easy, obvious, comfortable and worked perfectly for the available games. Everything since then has been a horribly failed gimmick.
The shear fact that they use a non default user shows that they probably have an above average ability to use their computer, which could be helpful in their job.
It's been a while since I've seen a company that had IE set as a default.
Same. Chrome is so easy to deploy with Group Policy and has just as much control as IE if not more. Now firefox doesn't (or didn't) pull it's proxy settings from the system so that can be an issue with some content filters.
As much as I hate Chrome it is supported by our EHR vendor where FF is not... might be time to look into using it.
Though we'll still have to keep IE around for the hospitals.
