Small business computing isn’t just about low cost - it’s about sustainability and self-sufficiency, that’s how you need to talk to "small business" owners (Thanks David) […]

I recently passed the big quarter-century milestone and had a nice three days of celebration. My mother and sister visited Saturday, bringing my present from the both of them.
