Is Your Vendor Too Busy ? Or Are They in Trouble ?

I deal with a number of suppliers and vendors. It’s part of networking. However, its becoming clear that some companies have people that are very busy because there isn’t enough people. Why ?

HP Network Tech Day – Summary View

hp-sauce-1

The HP Network Tech Day was a good introduction to HP Networking. Just like the first meeting with your Account Manager and Sales Engineer where we size each other up, talk generalities, and be nice to each other but there wasn’t enough time to get down to the details.

Show 17 – Big Hot and Heavy Switches – Part 2

A detailed look at the Big, Hot and Heavy Ethernet Switches with a large crew to talk about their practical experiences on design, selection and performance of Cisco Nexus switches. The result ? We don’t think the Nexus switches are very exciting.

Packet Pushers Unplugged – Show 1 – Lugging That Damn AP

This is the first podcast from the Packet Pushers devoted entirely to Wireless Networking.

Herewith, is the first episode of Packet Pushers Unplugged on wireless networking with our usual combination of wit and technical talent. Well, at least, some wit anyway.
