Upgrade update

My original prediction, of course, was a month and 4 meetings. The President got the memo yesterday, had a short meeting with my boss, and sent me 4 different emails with questions and suggestions for possible changes. My boss is now trying to schedule a meeting for us to discuss options with 3-4 other people, from which we are to make more suggestions and meet again with the President. (Neither of these meetings is likely to happen until after next week’s “event”) So we’re still on target for that prediction.

I told you this wouldn’t be simple. 🙂

It’ll be interesting to see if this catches some market share or if…

    One of the things I’ve constantly mentioned to people about working in a small office is that it really gives you the opportunity to know your users, and tailor your message, so to speak, to their technical abilities.

    After further review with that PC this afternoon, there is obviously a very serious problem, maybe even a hardware issue with the network card.
