Read moreI always thought of HP as one of Microsoft's biggest partners, so seeing this news is pretty surprising.

Read moreChris Lanier posts a blog about a new website dedicated to the awareness of Softsled and it's reasons. Personally, I don't see the point in such a site. Microsoft is aware of the demand and not sure what yet another group of forums is going to help with. One thing they do have right is that Webguide is as close […]
