Today, I really have learned that more monitor space you have, more productivity you get. I was working on mu 13" notebook PC and finished about 2/3 of the work in 10 hours. Other person with 4 monitors finished the rest within 1 hour.

I know it is not just the number of monitor ... but I would have increase my productivity if I had two monitors.

Think Big or Small!!!

Here are some numbers I learned at DELL WORLD 2012 this week about BIG DATA.

5 Exabyte of data were stored globally in 2002
1 Exabyte = 1 billion gigabytes

In 2010
Enterprises had more than 7 Exabyte of new data on disk drives
Consumers stored more than 6 Exabyte of new data on PCs and notebooks

But in the last few years, the amount of data we create and use every day has exploded

As of 2012, 2.5 Exabyte of data are created each day

In 2011 there were 780 million smartphones that generated more than 600 petabytes every month

Data generated by mobiles will reach 11 Exabyte per month by 2016

The information you see above is important to a storage provide like DELL but what is that mean to small business? No matter how much data you have about your customers, nothing beats you saying "Hello _____" when the customer walks in the door. Data storage can't do that.

Storing data is one thing. Sorting and grabbing the data you need are more essential to your business success. As small companies, we do not have IT budget like enterprises to do many things. But small businesses know customers more than enterprises do.

@PSPINC, we help you maintain that business edge by providing the right amount business tools without breaking the bank. PSPINC is a small business IT company for small businesses.

Opt-Out

12月

15日

I receive too many emails, many are just plain sales email so I try to opt-out from many. One was from the restaurant. I signed up to this email to get discount at the restaurant in Las Vegas many years ago.

I just got too many from them since they have no location in Seattle. I click on "Unsubscribe" and this is what I got. Their unsubscribe is not working. Not cool. One of the things that we make sure when we built http://www.newsmail.com was the opt-in and opt-out feature. I will double check to make sure this does not happen to our system.

Windows 8 PC/Tablet

Look I am a PC. No, I am a Tablet.
Look closely, your screen is upside down.

According to DELL, companies all over the world is moving to Windows 8 because of its security capabilities. The fancy interface and faster boot up are not the reasons why people should move to Windows 8. Very interesting.
