Drupal 7.x

Hi

After running some pretty big Joomla sites for the past 4 years, I'm getting really interested in Drupal and in my planning, I've run into this question:

Should we really use a forum-module or could we do it all in nodes / CCK anyway?

One thing that really strikes me as a huge advantage in Drupal, is the nodes - in Joomla, we're used to having so many different content types that doesn't work together.

Is there a reason why Google is not crawling and indexing comment subpages like:
http://devbee.com/drupal_seo?page=1 and
http://devbee.com/drupal_seo?page=2

We have found some developers so no more applications please

Is it possible to run the Drupal cron as a back end demon process with out loading apache (web server).
Generally cron is run by hitting http://www.mydrupalsite.com/cron.php, but is it possible to run a cron by directly invoking the cron script using shell, like (php /var/www/html/drupal/cron.php) or something.
If this is possible, i believe this can provide lot of extra breathing space to the web server.

Hi guys,
Any one who has tried Drupal plugins for eclipse?
I came across this link(http://xtnd.us/eclipse/install), but would like to know how good it can help development.
Is there any other plugin that is available, preferably something that is free to use.

I have embedded video and plays fine. My problem is that I can not get it to the right side of my page with text on the left of it. Please if anyone can offer some advice (what the tag should be and where to place it) I would be very appreciated.

Here is the embed code:

Thank You
Brian
