Don't Put Your Business at Risk
According to researchers, unpatched Windows PCs connected to th Internet will only last about 20 minutes before systems are comprimised by malware and spyware. The problem that most small businesses face is that there is no central managment of patches, virus protection and spyware blockers. Instead users are relied on to do thier own updatesand patching.
The Launch Pad RevITup Business Care Managed Service Program offers complete, managed protection for all security aspects of your network including antivirus/antispyware licensing and centralized monitoring and management of Windows updates and patches. We test each path and only approved patches are applied that will work in your environemnt.

TechRec Tip - Split View in Excel Need help viewing endless amounts of data in Excel without losing sight of your headers?
Excel’s Split and Freeze Pane option allows you to freeze columns and/or rows. This enables you to continuously view your data’s headers without the hassle of having to scroll to the top!
Let’s say you would only like row 1 to stay fixed (frozen) on your screen while scrolling down… On the Excel tool bar, select "Window" and choose “Split.” This will create horizontal and vertical split bars in the middle of your spreadsheet. These split bars can be moved and/or deleted. Newsletter June/July 2008
