Yes, the cost savings can be significant, and so can the simplicity it brings to [...]]]></description>

However today I want to point you to a specific resource that was brought to my attention a while ago. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So we&#8217;ve been talking about Windows 7, and how it can be a game changer for business.  And you, realizing that Windows XP is about 8 years old, are considering the change. You skipped Vista because you heard so many not-so-great-things about it, but early reports on Windows 7 have been extremely positive, so you&#8217;re [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today we&#8217;ll continue talking about Windows 7, this time with a bit of a focus on the transition from Windows XP.
When Vista first came out, there was a lot of fanfare about compatibility problems between XP applications and Vista. Vista was a big enough change from XP that a lot of applications didn&#8217;t really work [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For a few months now, we have been using the latest iteration of the Windows operating system, called Windows 7. And in all honesty I have to say that in my opinion, this one is a winner.
Does it have all the latest features? No, but it has most of them. It also brings mainstream a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m going to continue along the thread of Software as a Service that I started last week, and tell you about a problem that&#8217;s developed with one of the more common service offerings. The problem relates to online backup services, sometimes referred to as remote backup.
The basic premise is simple&#8230; as a business owner, you [...]]]></description>

Basically put, SaaS is when you pay someone for a service, where that service mimics a piece of software you can buy.

Yes, I mean recession. Whether or not there is a recession is something for accountants and other financial types to decide, not me. I&#8217;m just a [...]]]></description>

New PC&#8217;s that normally would have Vista installed can be bought with a Windows XP &#8220;downgrade&#8221;. And now that Vista Service Pack 1 is out the playing field will once again be covered in a foggy glow, and we can expect a rash of [...]]]></description>

Now I&#8217;m sure many business managers read that phrase and say &#8220;What&#8217;s to manage? You buy software and install it!&#8221;. End of problem, right?
Not so much. Especially for organizations over 50 machines, license management can become a [...]]]></description>
