Why not set a forward filter based on the subject on your end?
Been doing that for years...

Have you considered virtualization? Before adopting OSX, I went the virtualization route myself 4 years ago. I know it works on vmware (at least for me back then with vmw player running on Dell Linux laptop).
It probably depends on your requirements. YMMV
If you're going through this to save a few hundreds, get a mba refurbished.

Re:Pricing Principles

But then you dont get data about how much someone is willing to pay. Why not at least have your pricing table and underneath each pricing package, a signup for free call to action button with their own href anchor ( /signup#gold ) to track within google anyltics or something? This way even though people so sign up for free you'll gain a bit of knowledge about which package they clicked on and as a side effect the potential intend. Not perfect but better then no metrics.

How can this be harder than creating table with Word? Word always gets in the way. Word appears to be easier but down the road, it always end up as a painful process.
For me just the benefit of being mergable and delegating styling at the end of the tool chain is just plain great.

A BNF grammar would be nice to start with.

Btw if you're interested in a complementing piece of code, I have a small library [1] would give you the country for a given phone number (e164), so it could be used to prefill a default country value. It's not returning ISO code but I was planning on adding such feature.

We use ec2 within our telecom infrastructure which manages peaks of several thousands of calls with full duplex call recording on (think IO here) We are using the elasticity of ec2 to scale on demand.
This kind of instance is a nice addition for us as far as our auto scaling is concerned.

It's nice to have access to such UI components from the command line.
One of my favorite is pbpaste/pbcopy.

To put the car analogy straigth I would compare changing the tires with replacing the power adapter. I'm not interested in adding a turbo in my outback like I'm not interested in adding more ram in my laptop.

Re:Why my company doesn't send automated email from a 'noreply' address
on Wednesday April 04, 2012 @10:40PM (#3801029)
noreply@ adds friction because it doesn't invite to communicate. I don't know about you but I, for myself, want to communicate with my customer to get feedback as fast as possible. 2 real life example:
* I once sent a email to my customers about an upcoming maintenance window informing them that our platform would not be available for a certain time period. I got one customer quickly replying "next time, please let us know 1 week ahead" Point noted. Now I send my maintenance notice 1 week ahead. Happy customer.
* We have this automatic billing system which sends an invoice through email following payment. I had a customer once replying saying "Hey. That amount should be x+y instead of just x". Point noted. Shit happens and I wanna know.
Yes those customers could have reached us through our website or something but my point is, why not offer them the chance to hit reply? It's so close!
Also, If you don't have a good ticket system to skim through those incoming replies quickly, maybe you should get one. It pays back rapidly.
Your milage may vary.

on Wednesday April 04, 2012 @09:16PM (#3800782)
Because you want frictionless feedback with your customer. The less friction the more feedback.
Have this address forwarded to your ticket system.
That's a no brainer.

More specifically CouchApps [1] which can handle not only the DB part but also side things like serving ressources, authentication, validation, replication,... No silver bullet but interesting nevertheless.
