BOHICA!!!!

For a cool 150 US, you can get MDM's kiosk extension:allowing you to trap keys and keep snoopy users from dicking with the OS.

Um. Extension? Okay admittedly I haven't used MDM's products extensively, but extension? Shouldn't this be inherent? Reading that release made me feel somewhat violated in that disarmingly unmentionable kinda way. Of course this is only my opinion, which I suddenly feel the need to validate. And its not the fact that its an extension, but rather that you have to shell out for something that really shouldn't be sporting a price tag at all.

Of course this rant is subjective to my experience with 3rd party projector software. I'm admittedly and unabashedly a huge fan of a product that is not MDM's. Using that software I can easily trap keys and run kiosk mode and I don't have to shell out an extra 150 bucks to do so. Maybe I'm a princess and I've been pampered. If so, thank you, I can now use that 150 for more pressing items like beer and beer. Anyways, I'd be interested in knowing what exactly I get for my money that I can't get elsewhere for free.

D is for Bitch.

Apparently, according to the DISC profiling - I am a D - meaning Dominance. Well, really I am a Dominant/Stability person. For those of you have worked with me, get a kick out of reading my profile. Yep, I can definitely see the D -I am the one who once told a boss that he was having a hissy fit and I was too busy to buy him another ice cream cone to replace what sounded like the one he might have dropped. :)

But really, I'm not that bitchy. Motivated yes, competitive yes. Its a pretty accurate profile.

Things you learn about yourself. Now back to work!
