PSPINC belongs to an organization called "Seattle Executives Association". This is the most valuable resource PSPINC has for everything from Payroll, HR, Asset Purchase, Building Maintenance, Electricians, plumbing, Car Leasing, Health Insurance, Flower Delivery, Funeral Service, Accounting, Auditing, Background Check, Telephone Equipment, Long Distance Voice, Dental Care, Optometrist, Eye Glasses, Coffee and Water service. I don't know what we would have done anything without this organization.

Made in USA

I bought shirts from Oregon. They are made in USA. It is so hard to find anything that is made in USA nowadays. Having Made in USA label alone is a good sales point ... at least for me that is.

First MSN Offer ...

4月

28日

I received the first MSN Offer in my email box this morning. I don't know why I want this or why there is only 30% discount. I'r rather see restaurant discounts. Anyway, Microsoft had to start what others are doing ... very lame. Come on Microsoft, you can do better than this. You are the largest software developer in the world ... I'd like to see something more technical from you.

Microsoft Office Live is Ending

4月

22日

Microsoft Office Live is ending at the end of this month and all are asked to migrate to Microsoft Office 365. We are working this Saturday to migrate one customer from Microsoft Office Live to our email hosting service. This customer decided they do not need Microsoft Office 365. Unfortunate for Microsoft, this is not the only customer indicated to leave Microsoft.

It is unbelievable for us to shut down the service that has many customers. But then again, Microsoft Office Live or 365 are not Microsoft's main focus. They should keep Microsoft Office Live and slowly migrate them to Microsoft Office 365.

Where did our 800 number come from?

4月

17日

Our toll free number is 1-800-232-3989 and this is where it came from.

When we started Pacific Software Publishing, Inc. back in 1987, we were located in Mercer Island, Washington. The area code was 206 but the prefix for Mercer Island (I do not know now) was 232. The first phone number Pacific Software Publishing, Inc. got was 206-232-3989.

So when we got the 800 number, we made it a same number. So, that is where our 800 number came from. This is a picture of our lobby area. We have collection of computers starting from Apple IIe.
