Progress OpenEdge a Review by a Developer
Ok. After about 6 months of using Progress OpenEdge (This includes SEVERAL products and languages all kind of balled up into one) I will attempt to take a moment to review what I think so far. Let me start off with something that kind of blew my mind. Progress is a Database system as well as several programing interfaces all balled up in to one.

The Mysterious SSH Proxy (and the people who love them.)
Nothing raises eyebrows more than personal security. Setup your own ssh Tunnel and be the curiosity on the block...
Recently the company I work for has decided that I will be traveling. They provide me with a wonderful laptop. (I have named Lappy386 in honor of Strong Bad.) They also provide me with a wonderful VPN connection, that helps protect all of our company data. (A very important thing.) But I don't...

So you want a web proxy for your home/office?
I have an old computer lying around (I think it is a 233 mhz? with 256 mb ram? and a 15 gig drive? stats are fuzzy sorry...) and decided to see if I could build a nice proxy for my hand held game console. (a nintendo dsi) the browser works (kinda) but it has limited memory and functionality.
