I decided a few weeks ago that I would like to get a Jeep Wrangler. So far so good. I went online and requested quotes. In return, I got 40+ emails from dealers which included emails from non-Jeep selling companies that tried to sell me their competing products. No problem with that. Of the Jeep dealers, none of them provided me a quote based on the parameters that I put in for my request. None. They all requested to know: Year Model Trim Package 2-door or 4-door Auto or Manual Color Oddly, the above parameters are ones that I had already entered in my quest for a new Jeep. In my responses, I provided the information again, and I made it a point to say that I would be interested in other colors, trim packagets, etc, and I also said I would be interested in a used Jeep Wrangler as well. Of the 40+ responses, 5 came from Jeep dealers. Those five all received the same information from me. So, the responses I got were: See our website, it has all the ...

I hate to see Cutler being traded. I keep hearing how he is immature and needs to grow up. However, I have been trying to take the big picture view of all of it. First off, we need to remember how good the offense was last year, and that was with 100 running backs on the DL (actually, it was like 7 or 8). So, Shanny gets fired, which was deserved with the inability for him to get a good defense in place despite it being a weakness for a few years. In comes McD to save the day. Myself, I am thinking this was a stupid hire. The Broncs need a good defenisive mind. The offense needed no work. What does McD do? He signs another 100 running backs, all second or third stringers from other teams when Hillis showed that he was a super stud before he got hurt and a couple of other RBs already on the roster are also thought of as really top quality. To address the defense, he signs a safety that is 70 years old to a four year contract, and then spends over a million on a long snapper ...

I started a new blog on the MindsharpBlogs.com site. So far, I am just having a little fun, but I will be adding lots of new content there in the next few weeks. Make sure to add it to your feed list. My plan is to discuss Unified Communications in general, OCS 2007 and OCS 2007 R2, and hardware such as headsets and phone devices. I have a few headsets that I need to review, so I will post those reviews there, too. For those that hate links, here is the URL: http://unifiedcommunications.mindsharpblogs.com/RussK/default.aspx

It seems like I am hearing more questions about certification in recent months than I have in a few years. I have been seeing lots of job ads with a requirement for an MCSE in Windows Server 2008. Let me make it clear, there is no such thing. Never has been, and it appears that there never will be one. I think this deserves discussion, but to me, it makes sense that Microsoft has changed the program. The products have become more and more specialized, and the MCSE just didn't do justice when it comes to these specializations. Microsoft explains why they changed to the new generation of certification here: http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/newgen/why/default.mspx. The big discussion in the last few weeks has been around the new Master certification. You can read more about it here: http://www.microsoft.com/learning/mcp/master/default.mspx. What it really comes down to is that it is a super depth program that requires three weeks of class attendence with long ...
