Good Morning! Wow was this ever a busy week for us…or should I say month. I’m sorry for not doing the blog but things have been very busy.


On Tuesday Co Host Andy Marken and I were joined by Charles Klinker of Verbatim. Charles did a wonderful job of bringing us up to date on what is going on at Verbatim. He spoke to us about external drives as well as their current NAS. Charles then explained to us about the modifications of their new NAS that should be ready for the Holiday season. I look forward to meeting and talking to him at CES.

Second half of the show I was joined by Phil Libin of Evernote. Phil brought us up to date of the neat improvements to Ever Note since we last had them on. If you are looking to organize yourself take a good look at Evernote.

On Wednesday Ceazar…Rover and Rich did a How To show and it was great. Please make sure you download this one and listen as they cover a wide sweep of technology.

Thursday Martin Feuerhahn of Friend Caller joined me in the first half of the show. Friend Caller is a peer to peer telephone service and I will tell you very stable and very clear.

Today I was joined by Steven Leonard and Jonas Svensson of Microsoft. We talked about Windows Home Server. Steven gave us an overview of Home Server and all its wonderful capabilities.

Jonas who I was very fortunate to meet with Ceazar and Christine at the smbNation conference a few weeks ago brought us up to date on the Home Server Community. Like we have been saying Microsoft feels like it is on a new beginning and is really paying attention to the customer base. So with that in mind the team set up a community and offers beta testing and then sits back a listens to the feed back.

This show is a must download if you want to learn about Home Server opr if you are already a user to expand your knowledge base.

Good Morning! Wow was this ever a busy week for us…but a week that brought us to two trade shows that were just fabulous.


First was our Tuesday show with Tim Hites – President and Mark Moeller – VP Business Development – ICC Global Hosting. They are the First and Leading Provider of Hosted Virtual Desktops. ICC Global Hosting provides cloud-based virtualized desktop hosting services to commercial enterprises, academic institutions, and public sector entities.

Wednesday and Thursday we attended IAITAM ( International Association of Technology Asset Managers) at the Green Valley Resort – Henderson, Nevada.

The show President and Founder is Barbara Rembiesa. Has she ever put together a wonderful event as well as an association that is so very important to the industry in helping organizations manage their assets. Please take the time to listen to the interviews posted on our web site.

Friday and Saturday we spent time at the Riviera Conference Center, Las Vegas, Nevada.

The conference was the SMBNation founded by Harry Brelsford – CEO. In a time of a recession that our nation is going through the participants at the SMBNation were working together to help SMB companies survive what the tough times they are facing.

SMB Nation conferences, seminars and workshops bring forward-thinking IT consultants, technologies and vendors together, sparking new opportunities in the SMB space. . Please take the time to listen to the interviews posted on our web site.

Today our JAVA show was with David Henry – Netgear. It was all about home entertainment and the ease of it with Netgear equipment.

We first spoke about Home Theater Internet Connection Kit (XAVB1004) and how this sets up the ease of connectivity.

Then we spoke about Digital Entertainer Live (EVA2000) and the ability to tap into a new kind of TV viewing.

Next on the list of entertainment equipment is the brains of the operation RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N Gigabit Router (WNDR3700). This robust multi band router is the finest that Netgear offers and I will tell you it is just wonderful and full of features.

Now we talked about connection…viewing and the brains to get it to your HDTV here is the final leg in this win…win…win…win entertainment solution from NetGear. And it is called Stora (MS2110) and it provides a web based NAS (that means you can access this unit from anywhere in the world YEAH Netgear) that stores all your information in one drive in it’s two drive bay case. The second drive bay provides a mirror image of the first drive…so just think your data and all the pictures and music you like is now backed up on your computer…the first drive bay where you chose to store it for HDTV viewing and the second drive bay in Stora…again Netgear you just continue to amaze me
