Question:
I have a limited budget, but I need to upgrade my computer.
What can I upgrade that will give me the best bang for the
buck?
Adrian says: One component that can give
a big boost to your computer is the memory, or RAM. RAM is
used by your computer to store parts of programs you are currently
running, making those programs respond more quickly. Generally
speaking the more RAM you have, the more programs you can
run at the same time more efficiently. RAM can be installed
in minutes and results are instantaneous. Happy Computing!

Hedgehog
Concept
“Are you a hedgehog or a fox?” You want
to be a Hedgehog according to Jim Collins’ excellent
book, “Good to Great”. The general idea proposes
that you focus your organization on one simple concept that
captures what your organization is passionate about, what
it can be the best in the world at and what it can be profitable
at. Combining these three ideas, or as Collins describes them
as ‘the three circles’, is part of the groundwork
for propelling a company that is good (read mediocre) to great.
The Smart Dolphins Hedgehog Concept is providing a standardized
and proven I.T. infrastructure for small businesses; or as
we call it, Technology with Porpoise™.

This
Month's Top Question to Ask Your IT Provider...
Can you communicate to me
in plain English?
Why
is this Important?
- Technology
is not simple. Most business owners don't have time to become
geeks, yet they need to comprehend at a level that will
allow good decision making. The really nerdy information
isn't necessary; Plain English is required.
