Virtual Office With Used Cisco

Friday, August 28th, 2009

Integration of high quality video, audio, and wireless as well as data services makes it a point for the efficiency and high level solution capabilities of the Cisco products. Commensurate to such capabilities the Cisco is now moving towards the virtual office for its customers.

Virtual office is a new concept of the business enterprises world over. It allows the businessmen to expand their links to somewhere beyond their current spheres of activities. Another advantage of virtual office is that it brings the office the employees, and you carry on your office along with you when you are on the move. The best part of it is that not only with the help of existing and new Cisco products but also with the used Cisco such achievements can be made.

Cisco supports the efforts of the entrepreneurs by providing the infrastructure for the purpose of setting up effective virtual office. The concept of paper less office is almost identical with the concept of the virtual office. It makes the proverb truth, “the office in your pocket”.

Such used articles provided by Cisco for the purpose could be the products that have become bit older and stacked for sell or the current ones that might have completed a couple of months only and yet got damaged somehow. These are the products that have undergone the Cisco repair refurbishing the products in manner that it will be as useful as the new ones for any purpose.

My Boss Donated the Used Pseries Server

Thursday, August 27th, 2009

The local library was looking for a used pseries server to use in their computer lab. I guess that they had been given a grant to purchase twenty more computers but did not have the money for a new server. I started looking in the paper to see if I could find anything like that but only found used bladecenter servers.

I called and spoke with the head librarian to see if the used bladecenter server price would be feasible for them. She explained that it was a little more than they were able to spend on a server. So, I went back to the drawing board. I then found a used bladecenter server online but it was more than the one in the paper.

About a day after I stopped looking for a used pseries server that the library could afford, I found one. My boss sent out an email that explained how our computers would be down over the weekend because we were installing new servers. I was shocked to find out that our old ones were for sale, and they were the used pseries servers that the library was looking for. When I told my boss, he donated one to the library free of charge. I knew that they could afford that.
