It is rather strange that our faith in answers posted on the internet are taken as "Gospel Truth"
. We generally pick up the first few answers returned by a search engine, implement it and then figure out that was not the best possible
;. We need to spend more time in figuring out, by going through the other search results and figuring out which would be a possible solution.

"have you tried switching if off and on again" (the last one is a joke, of course).
That does work sometimes!

Did anybody ever tell you that if you Drop the Master dbs, you'll no longer have *any problems* with your servers?
mainly because you won't be working there anymore...
If we don't find out WHY something works, the pros and cons of it, etc, before implementing in production, then yeah, we definitely need to change our patterns.

Twitter, #sqlhelp hashtag. Some of the folks who wrote BOL might respond and clarify the issue for you.

I search to get a direction moreso than an answer. Thinking about it, you do the exact same thing within your own team of coworkers. Someone gives you advice and you act on it. The net is no different, it's just a little bigger.

Interesting article. I know I'm always searching google for technical information.
For those concerned with the AWE settings the following are some information concerning the memory settings on SQL Server.

Interesting article. I didn't quite expect something of this nature in an editorial. This was a good read.

This type of thing is where I really see value in the MVP program. I usually give the benefit of the doubt to advice/tips/explanations as when I see MVP by the name of the person offering it. That's not to say I disregard others, I just approach it a bit more skeptically until I am convinced of its accuracy.
