started becoming more active on linkedin and been slacking off on my blog, lol. The DC trip was fantastic, being on a strict budget all we paid for was gas for travel, hotel and food. Since all the national monuments and most museums are free, it's great! We saw the Smithsonian zoo, capital, supreme court, botanical garden, Smithsonian native american museum, Smithsonian air and space museum, Lincoln, WWII and Washington monuments, and NASA Goddard space visitors center and NSA's cryptologic museum. All in less then 3 days.. Super busy!
The most surprisingly best part was the cryptologic museum, even my wife was interested :). The most disappointing was sadly the Goddard space visitors center, I was thinking it would be more like the Smithsonian air and space but it was much smaller, I'd much rather have visited the real NASA Goddard building! Actually I tried but got turned around at the gate:).
Still, all sites I highly recommend seeing especially the zoo and botanical garden, they were fantastic!
NetBios is finally dead
I'm sure everyone already knew this, but its new to me. Starting with Vista, NetBIOS is officially not recommended! It can be disabled in a Server 2008, windows vista/7 environment. It has been replaced with Link Local Multicast Name Resolution, which is compatible with IPv6, unlike NetBIOS. WINS is also thrown out the window, no pun intended. LLMNR does not use WINS. LLMNR only works on the current broadcast domain, like NetBIOS, but because LLMNR doesn't use WINS, there is no way to use it outside the broadcast domain, which is fine since you should be using DNS for that.
