Steve Fiddles While Redmond Burns

If this video about Microsoft Songsmith is any indication of the complete lack of focus in Redmond these days, then it's truly time to cash out of MSFT and invest in a Linux company, though it might be too late already...

The # 1 Question This Holiday Season

The Question

I'll bet you can identify with this, you're at the post office or a coffee shop and you can see the intent in someone's eyes, they're going to ask you "that question", ie:

"I need a new computer, what kind should I get?"

I used to have very long conversations with people, spend lots of time discussing the merits and demerits of the various operating system choices, application alternatives and in general giving away a lot of free consulting.

Note: If they preface the question with the statement "Hey, You're a Computer Guy" it's going to be a rough one, guaranteed.

Selling to a Small Business Part 4: Building a plan and a proposal

The great thing about working with small businesses is the lack of formality that is so prevalent with larger enterprises. After all, you're not expected to turn up to the customer site in a three-piece suit, and the last time you had to wear a tie was to your nephew's wedding.
