      From a post on SW. It's amazing how often things not quite this dramatic happen in IT. You can see it in hundreds of posters on SW and the way that they think that they are so much more important than the business itself.

      "The former Sysadmin for a client was terminated. Basically he was becoming increasingly difficult, and eventually we were called in because they felt this guy was holding their network hostage. When he was asked for passwords he had some kind of mental meltdown, jumped on a desk and started screaming that he is an IT God at myself and another technician I brought in to clean up the mess. Security dragged him off as he tried to get violent with the owner. "

                      I'm not crazy on this, right? Cold Windows replicas are just backups and NEVER require a license. Hyper-V Replica doesn't require any special licensing and you just need to license the VM to power it on, right?

                      The thread is exploding and I feel like I'm explaining basic English. Am I missing something? Every reference he produces supports my point, from that I can tell.

                                    Heading to Menards to get insulation for the attic above my office.

                                    I do not like 90 degrees in my office. With the air running...

                                            This field seems to attract a lot of weird people with a lot of hubris. It's not a great combination.
