Tech chatting

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Kevin has the latest episode of his In The Trenches podcast up on his site. I quite enjoyed being part of the Tech Chat with Kevin, Kevin Mazur and Eric Maynard, chatting about the difficulties of dealing with dissimilar systems on your network. Eric put his show prep notes on his site, and I have some further thoughts on the frustrations of proving the cost-effectiveness of standardization when the only cost management sees is your time, which they’re already paying for, but those thoughts haven’t quite finished percolating in the coffee maker that is my brain. Hopefuly they will and I’ll post some more about it tomorrow. In the mean time, what do you have to say about it?

    Here’s the situation. We have 3 scanners in the office, hooked to 3 machines. Two are setup in offices of people who use them quite often, and get the scanning done for just about all of the office. The third is in my office, and rarely ever gets used. (I’m not even clear on why…
