Okay, where, I have to see what prompted this.
Oh, it's not on the forums. Sean sent me an email promising to review my articles "soon" so I thought I'd just mess with him in a public place. @=)
Brandie, you are terrible...
Keep doing it!

I wish I had a better answer, but I cling desperately to Visio 2010. I've evaluated some other ER tools but they all seem too expensive or not enough features :crazy:

Actually I already reviewed both of them and returned them to her. π It helps that Brandie does a lot of writing already so even her first draft is far cleaner than many articles that are actually published.

+1 They haven't pried Visio 2010 from me yet, no matter how much they wanted me to upgrade. Everyone knows I have an old version and they all know why (I complained pretty loud).

Is a 200GB storage or less common for productive db servers? I know that I have a lot more in my laptops which obviously use cheaper storage, but it doesn't seem right to have such a limited space as the thread that wants to free 6GB of space because they run out of disk (and it's not the first time I see a thread like that).

In my experience, it's not common. Then again, I may be spoiled because my network team really takes care of me where space is concerned.
Then again, I have seen when scenario A is budgeted, planned, purchased and set up. Then scenarios X, Y, Z and AB^2 are implemented on the same server, problems do arise as hardware limitations are reached.

I suspect a lot of time these threads are people still using a Win2000 server as their primary database server and they are running sql2k along with it. I am shocked at how many people still are using sql2k. For that matter I am shocked at how many people are still creating new applications in VB6, Delphi, VFP and classic ASP.
