The release was official February 2008 and the new server improves on some basic features while greatly implementing new capabilities. Microsoft takes of lot of shots about Linux and Open Source but there is no question they provide a platform that has value. When your next server upgrade comes it will be beneficial to hear how the new features will improve your business while hiding the complexity of what the server is doing for you.
Servers are the heart of the business network. All computers access and share files from the servers with some dedicated to specific needs like accounting or marketing. We work with all the top vendors for Servers. Dell, HP, Compaq, IBM/Lenovo and powered INTEL or AMD.
We used to always recommend Dell but found that by purchasing INTEL direct you get a 3 year warranty out of the box without an extra charge. Dell and others usually buy INTEL direct and charge extra for a 3 year warranty at a cost of couple hundred extra dollars per server. We now compare the current offers available from Dell, HP, Compaq, Lenovo to see what is the best value. We deliver custom INTEL servers, the industry standard. Superior server solutions at a value price. By using INTELor AMD you are buying the industry standard server components and steering clear of proprietary issues.
You won’t have to spend 4 hours trying to figure out the glitzy name brand website and 30 minute offers. We are INTEL Product Dealers and AMD partners giving you a wider range of choices so your company benefits with the very best solution to your server needs. We will clearly show you the best value and then follow through with installation and staff training so you have a reliable computing environment!
The market for servers is moving into multiple core technology which is really good for buyers. What is Dual Core or Quad Core? This can best be explained by thinking about a car. A single engine car is fine but if you could stuff 2 or 4 engines in the same space under the hood then your car would be much more capable. That is the essense of multi-core processor technology driving servers. Stuffing more engines in the same space! This results in a production cost savings so buyers get more power in the same footprint in the computer room or data center.
The opportunity provided by the advances in processors and Windows Server 2008 means your business can consolidate and simplify your network environment while getting the latest software to run your business! Stand alone or virtual servers are just a call away.

One big happy dysfunctional family called ATT is continuing to wreak havoc on users. It is not clear if they were hacked and won’t admit it or if the system imploded and they won’t admit that either.
What is clear to users is if you run a business and use an address like professionalemail@mybusiness.com and access the internet using ATT DSL you will have more trouble than you bargained for. We assume you have already changed the SSL ports which is why you were able to progress to the 553 relay error. All ATT DSL accounts have an address like myname1234@sbcglobal.net but go to sbcglobal.net to actually login using the button at the top of the page you will get an error 100% of the time. No need to switch browsers from Firefox to IE that is not the problem.
Here is the error:
You can go to my.att.yahoo.com using the same information and login successfully with webmail. I realize you are reading this because you need your Outlook to work and like many don’t want webmail.
This link will help some with basic outlook settings http://helpme.att.net/article.php?item=285
Searching you may find your self reading the following useless article.
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/manage/sendfrom-09.html
Here is a screen shot, and this info is wrong but keep reading.
In order to stop the error from happening you will have to login to the att.yahoo.com with your sbcglobal.net
account. Click on the Mail icon to go to your inbox. On the right will be an “Options” Link.
Next click on “Mail Address” in the center column.
Step 1. Click on “Add” the next prompt is to put in a friendly name. Click “Continue” which is almost hidden in the left corner under everything else but now you know where to find it.
Step 2, add the corporate email account. Click Continue.
Step 3. This the most important step. DON”T ENTER ANYTHING, click “Skip Shis Step”
Step 4. get ready to check your corporate email with Outlook. Click send verification and start checking your email address you entered in step 2. At the bottom of this email you will find the confirmation code. Copy and paste into the browser which is still on the confirmation screen. You will be prompted to enter the att password again and you are done.
Mail will now be allowed to go out under your corporate mail identity. Happy mailing!
