Friday, July 30, 2010 at 5:20PM The availability of Windows 7 presents a great opportunity for you to consult with your customers and grow your business. With higher levels of reliability, security, performance, administration, and support offered by Windows 7, you can make a strong business case for the Windows 7 operating system.
Friday, July 30, 2010 at 4:20PM Scott has noted that if you are updating XP and have selected IE8 as one of the downloads, you will most likely get a run.dll error after you reboot and you will still have IE6/IE7 on your system.
You have to do yet another update and reinstall IE 8 again and this should resolve the error.
This does not happen if you run IE8 from a standalone install, only through Windows Updates.
Hope This Helps

Thursday, July 29, 2010 at 6:46PM This is just a quick note to let you know that I will be concentrating in August on discussing our Security Camera, DVR and IP MegaPixel Camera solutions. There are a lot of things you need to consider while designing a system and I’ll be presenting some of the solutions that we have come up with and providing you with some talking points with our staff to help you develop the right plan for you. I plan on having Jude and Nick who have so much work on these projects of the past two years to share some of their ideas and insights to this exploding market. With the increased need for security of your homes and businesses, protecting your employees and loved ones and tracking employee work habits and other problems these products will help you save money and give you peace of mind. We are also working with our new Gemini Imaging Server system. This is a breakthrough product that is a godsend to any IT department that has to maintain groups of systems and repurpose them every so often. We developed this system in house to solve a need for cloning a workstation image for our K-12 clients where we would need anywhere from 10 to 1000 machines imaged with the same configuration or slight variations. Our Gemini Server does this and much more. This product is perfect for schools, medical facilities, manufacturing and large corporate entities that buy systems in bulk and need to get them in place. It is also useful for small and large disaster recovery situations as well. This any many more ideas will be delved into so be sure to subscribe to this site so you don’t miss out on any of this information as we post it.
Thursday, July 29, 2010 at 4:47PM August 18th is the release date for this new version in the Amazon Kindle product line. This new Kindle will only be WiFi enabled but most of will not be unhappy with that. It is purported to have better contrast, up 50% over the current models. The unit is physically smaller and lighter but still sports the 6-inch screen. And if you are a speed reader the screens are turning 20% faster as well. Storage has doubled, and battery life is said to be good for up to an entire month. They have even included new custom fonts that should make the work and letters more crisp and natural looking.
Sunday, July 25, 2010 at 1:41PM One of the things that I am constantly doing is making adjustments to my computer to make work better and have available all of the application tools that I use day in, day out. This involves loading the right software on a system that I am going to use as well as adjusting that software when necessary to the way I need to use it.
Sunday, July 25, 2010 at 9:22AM With so much video available from so many sources how do you choose what you are going to watch? I know it’s hard but I keep up with most the content that interests me by using iTunes to collect the Podcasts or going directly to the content provider’s site to access the information. Microsoft has created several “communities” that contain information about products, how to use them and discussions of projects and events surrounding the software giant. Channel 9 is one of those communities. One way of keeping up with new content coming from this site is to subscribe to its RSS feed. If you are new to RSS and the ability to have site postings sent to you automatically then you are in for a real treat.
