For example, where I work, I consider myself an “expert” when it comes to desktops, our memberships database, Access, end-user support and training, SOHO networking, etc. I’m not…
Thanks to Microsoft Watch we now have a pointer to a KB article listing apps that they know will have problems with SP2. Gee Symantec Corporate edition 8 is on there. That’s one of ours, although the work-around seems simple enough. Guess I’ll find out for sure soon enough. Follow these topics: Uncategorized
Saw this over at Mike Sanders blog today: “Three observations after reading current blog entries: 1) The logic and intelligence a person has in one area does not usually transfer to other domains. 2) Personal bias, not intellect or logic, is the number one determinant on the conclusion a person will reach. 3) Blogging is…
