20 years is a lot
of networks...
I was there from the beginning of commercial PC networking...
using an early version of Novell's NetWare (1985) to automate
a medical transcription unit at a community hospital, consulting
to a regional bank during an acquisition when dozens of branches
needed new file, print and messaging servers; helping a small
college make over their network to provide better academic and
administrative computing services.
Today, networks are built to
help organizations meet their objectives. Formerly isolated
workgroup or departmental solutions must fit into a larger
picture. Aligning computer technology with organizational
requirements means hiring someone who has experience integrating
a diverse range of products. Attention to detail is critical.
Everything must work together. We are in the age of
post-Internet computing....
