I think this is a recipe for disaster. Marines should have unfettered discretion to protect themselves. Too many questions they're required to ask themselves. Thought that section was particularly ludicrous. Checklists before firing potentially creates more friendly casualties. And if the Taliban KNOW the ROE? Marines must be making some pretty good jokes and cartoons about this. Unrelated question. We have a guy ready to install all-Mac office, including server. Any reliability issues or tech assistance availability issues for Mac servers? Haytham wants us to connect our office Macs to a PC server because his "contacts" have told him that you can't find anyone to fix a Mac server and it's more expensive and you can't easily write new "code" to tinker with your software. He's a little resistant to change, even though his desire to go "all Mac" in 2008 was the reason we actually did. He didn't. I also think he's afraid that "law firms all have PCs so that's what our office should have, too" and he's trying to justify that by finding maintenance issues for the server or Parallels problems for time and billing software to operate. Just picking your brain on the potential risks of going all Mac in our new offices (yet to be located). We have more time now. Probably won't lease until 1 April. Neal Neal A.
