      Your more than welcome to dive into https://issurvivor.com/ and search his archives. Those are free but I don't know if he explicitly has many articles on charge backs.

      I went through his CIO.com archives and could only find things that supported bill backs, not that were negative towards them or pointed out an alternative.

      Like any good model, it still needs good "everything else" around it. But it fixes more than just "trends", it fixes actual things that are impossible without it. It's the only model (of which we know) that aligns IT to the business, and the departments to the business, allowing the organization to act in its own interest. Any alternative actually encourages departments to fight against the company itself, they are antagonistic to the organization.

        His only mention of MSP is from Nov, 2000 when he discovered the term. And he talks about ASPs as well. I had started my first of both, over a hear before he heard the terms 🙂

        It really was a new term at the time. But he acts like the concept was new. It was very tried and true in the 1990s. It's an ancient article, just funny that in late 2000 he was thinking that MSPs were some hot, new thing, lol.
