Seems like a rough ride for an unknown amount of time with the economy the way it is. What does this mean for your technology needs?
Does your website wait 3 years for an upgrade?
Does your contact database still make your office inefficient for 3 more years?
Do your desktops computers continue to run slow and not backed up?

We want to share with you some options you have even in these tough times to still move forward with your technology needs while not having to purchase new software, brandnew hardware or for a programmer to build you a website from scratch.

With the release of Vista by Microsoft and the new Office you are going to have to 'learn'. New icons New workflows New error messages etc... You are going to have to buy new hardware to get the fancy theme it offers etc. But you have other choices. Some may say buy a Mac? But that would be one more blow against the local economy. So why not try Ubuntu Linux. A user friendly system for your computer to get all your work and fun done.

This site had a good list of alternatives. It is attached to this page as a pdf as well.
