Well, I didn't know anyone had something like that, but yes. I might actually get a Samsung now.
They were free if you bought your Galaxy S9 from Samsung during their promotion.
Well crap....

As a laptop configuration, I don't see much value in it because at the price they are offering a Chromebook would be a lot better. Now if they had a small dock that would hook up to two external monitors and a regular keyboard or mouse. I might then be interested.

I had a deer get lodge into my driver side window. Luckily I was by myself. The first thing I did after soiling my undies, was quickly pulled over get out and call the police. Before the police arrived the damn deer freed itself and ran off. I hate live deer, I do love venison jerky though.

He's just happy he ain't gonna have to drink it.
One time my wife said that we should get hard apple cider and mix it with a shot of Fireball Whiskey because you know the Cinnamon flavor from the fireball whiskey and the apple flavor from the hard cider could be good together. It was the first, last and only time Fireball Whiskey will get past my lips.
That's a pretty standard drink. @QuixoticJeremy was doing those by the glass at MangoCon.
I did not like them. To each their own.

Ive not done this for qb file storage. I use Windows file server for this.
I cant envision a scenario where it would be simpler or better than putting it on an smb share on Windows Server either. Just seems like it would break and youd be up a creek. Imagine calling qb support with a Linux server issue.I disagree. After the initial setup a Linux server will be much more stable.
Also don't forget about licensing cost for Windows.
The complaint is that QuickBooks support would be worse than having all of your teeth pulled out, without any pain medicine and the "dentist" using a pair of pliers, while going in from the back door rather than your mouth. .
The question is do they support it or not? It's actually black and white. Either they support it or they don't.
Well their website says that they do, so the conversation falls back to, is their support good enough? In my experience it has never been good enough.
I am confident in my Linux skills, so that isn't the issue. I am moving forward with this. I will keep everyone updated.

All the servers at the client location are Linux. The current QB runs off of a Windows 7 box that is due to be replaced. Also according to QB this is a supported way of doing this.

Don't crucify me because it is a Quickbook question. I have a client that uses Quickbooks Enterprise and according to these pages below, you can install the database on a Linux box. Has anyone done this? If so did you come across any gotchas?

It is what the client uses. Don't blame me.

See I would invite friends over that didn't know that my Dad has had his leg amputated. Then I would share that article with them that day. I just wouldn't say anything and just let them wonder.

Getting stoked to see RiffTrax Live tonight - they're riffing Space Mutiny, which was on an old episode of MST3K, but is so hilariously bad that they have plenty of new jokes for it. Highly recommended, especially if you want to laugh so hard that your face will hurt. It's probably being simulcast in your town.
I was going to go tonight but have to travel for a job.

@jaredbusch Now that is cool. So many holidays, its great. I would go then to see the GT race it mentioned. Not to mention its probably a good time of year to see the sights anyway. I would go and not want to come back.
I would never recommend someone go to Japan during golden week. Everything is packed because the entire country is off work.
Go in late/march early april for Cherry blossoms or wait until September when the summer heat cools down a few degrees.
My Cousin studied for a year and a half in Japan while he was in college. He is now fluent in Japanese.

I saw this on the BBC and thought you should see it:
California voters to weigh splitting into three states - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-44471277
My 2 cents and looking at this pragmatically the only way it happens is if the Democrats take full control of Congress with a supermajority in both the Senate and the House in the next election cycle. As Congress would have to approve of the measure. Looking at how the map is proposed it would create two very heavily Democrat states, so they would gain two additional Senators in the Senate, at least. It would then create a purple state which could, in theory, give another two Senators to the Democrats. Republicans won't go for it, no advantages for them. The House wouldn't change because that is based on population.
