This NetApp one presumable contains IT types, who should know better than reply all, especially once the tsunami started!
We had a variation in our office the other week, a couple of hundred tenants got spammed by a gritting contractor who'd left a distribution list able to be replied to from outside the organisation so when a few recipients started replying with unsubscribe/remove etc...
One of my fav aircraft...
But back to reality, its seems its a very cost effective one too:

$17K per hour vs £70K for the combat ready F22... I suspect the F35 will be in this ball park too once its deployed. Even if it reaches the deployment size of the F-16 ($22K per hour), it will still be more per hour...
Keeping it on staff is money well saved!
You know, the watch that I already own, thats already made of Gold/Steel/Titanium etc, the one that already tells me what date and time it is... the one thats made by a suitably subtle manufacturer that only certain types will recognise and appreciate, the one thats thinner than a £1 coin yet doesn't need a battery...
yawn.
"I don't understand how an IT professional can fall for a such a trick. (Note the word professional)."
Because there's a lot of IT run by the guy (or gal) in the office who "knows about computers". They then get another job "in IT" because they "ran" the last company's IT.
He/she is now an IT Professional. Q.E.D.
I had an Orange phone soon after they launched, it was cheaper p/min than the BT payphone in halls (once you'd bought the handset, but Radio Rentals (remember them!?!) did a nice deal on that) and it was almost half the price p/min of Voda and Cellnet. It was great 'till the French bough them, out went the great customer service, out went the free this, free that, in came the price gouge for everything and duff billing - I paid a bill over the counter and they (to this day) never applied it to my account!
I'm now on Three who has much the same ethos of the early Orange (Hutchinson's hand?) and soon will have O2's network to play with ... O2 the only network I have never been on.

So BT will be:
34% of Fixed line Internet (next biggest: Virgin 205)
37+% of Fixed line telecoms (Plus EE's share) (next largest: Virgin 12%)
33% of Mobile comms (EE's share) (Next largest VF/O2 @ 26% each)
So BT is now dominant in all three markets... and we know how well they play with others when in dominance!

I'm a recycler/refubisher.
MS does W7 and Office 2007 licences charities etc for $6 USD each via its Citizenship licenses.
We just bought some ex corporate Lenovo X61 laptops (Core 2, 2Gb, 80Gb HDD) for £20 each
So for £1000 plus labour, you could have a W7/Office equipped core 2 duo for each user. WAY cheaper than a go faster Server 2012 piece of tin!
Contact your local MS Registered refurbisher....
