I'm trying to impress my boss with Windows 8

Good luck - I'm not sure I'm impressed too much. As far as Metro apps go, there's a number of little widgets in there for things like news and weather that constantly update themselves, along with a Reader app. Just wondered if anyone was able to integrate any of them into their productivity routine.

@Dominica I can't speak to the OP - our problem really isn't about paying, well other than with time. The app can be replaced by another solution we already have in place, but our docs have to read the patient education material in the new system and approve it for our patients before we'll give it out. They currently only approved the material in the old system. If they'd read the new stuff and sign off on it, we'd be done.

I'm lucky I'm past all of that. I've been telling them for a year that we need to replace all of the XP machines (40+) and they have approved it... so the purchasing has been happening with some help from Danielle.

Awesome, good to know that NTG is able to help out!

I incorrectly started my GPOs in the default GP 10 years ago... like you I've moved away from this practice completely allowing me greater flexibility where needed.

Pertino is what we do.... full mesh VPN / Software Defined Network. Every device is on it. So every server, every desktop, every laptop and soon NAS devices and iOS devices as well (as soon as they get on the iOS bus!!) But you can do other things too like Cisco IPSEC VPNs, OpenVPN, etc. Lots of options.

Ah I think that I knew that. Although I don't feel like I've seen his alter ego much either.

@ChristopherO I do believe drinks are in order for this man!
