Random Thoughts

Posted on March 26, 2009January 30, 2010 By Michael Kavka No Comments on Random Thoughts

Just some musings and thoughts for the day today.

1) Registry cleaning is needed, and I”m testing a bunch of the different cleaners right now, but what do you like to use to clean your registry.

2) Terminal Server, is it really the be all end all for any small business when Office licensing alone can cost more than the server itself? And will this be the area that Open Office starts to shine in?

3) SBS 2008, when do you think the best time to start to deploy it to clients is? I know I”m trying to do it with fresh networks, but what about migration from prior versions on existing networks, where you need to have minimal downtime.

4) Online groups and fourms, what do you use for your tech forums? Myself I don’t really use any one particular one, but I do love Experts Exchange jsut for the wealth of knowledge there.

Just some thoughts to be discussed. Once things settle back down in the office, I’ll get back to doing reviews of Server 2008 and SBS 2008 (although I am still figuring out how we can get it on its own subnet around the office so I can run the wizards and go through it properly).
