		<description><![CDATA[I was reading an article on CIO.com today about Apple in the Enterprise: Breaking Microsoft&#8217;s Grip and found that while it was interesting, it sort of really missed the point.

Strangely, IT support never makes the top of my list. I know&#8230; I know&#8230; it seems impossible that the COO of and IT services business would say that. But, in reality, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the most common questions we get around IT coverage for smaller businesses is &#8216;what will it cost?&#8217; Signing up for IT is a bit like dropping the car off at a repair shop &#8211; scary.

Google was down for only an hour, but during this time millions of users of Google Docs could not access their documents.
Microsoft had it worse, with an issue that caused about 3 hours of downtime for their Office [...]]]></description>
