can this be credible?
I am currently blogging about my Windows 7 Deployment experience. If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
After 20 years with the company I’ve been asked to officially blog. I should also say that I have not always been in favor of public blogging by staff about what we do as a company. However when I suggested we would consider an early adoption of windows 7 to the management team our Microsoft Practice Manager and Marketing Department jumped on it.
You’d have to question whether this site and the information contained will be taken seriously. And by seriously I mean factual and honest. That’s going to be your call at the end of the day but a little bit of company background may help. We are a technology company, we offer a diverse array of products and services, we have experts in many of these, we have been in this business for over 30 years, we make a living by selling , we are a public company, we have a responsibility to our shareholders, our customers, ourselves and I take it seriously.
We therefore have to be responsible in everything we do and this includes the technology we use internally. As the IT manager the pressure is always there to run the latest of everything and use what we sell. The fact is our product list is in excess of 500,000 products and it’s just not going to happen. Like all companies we make sensible calculated decisions based on sound financial analysis. (in case John is reading

One of the first questions I get from most new employees is if we don’t use it how do we know what is best for our customers? Like all experts we invest in our knowledge, skills and lab facilities to build our collective capability in order to offer expert advice.
So it’s your call if you check back in, I hope you do.
