Down time this weekend

With the first semester almost on it's last legs, we won't overwhelm you with too much information - only the small, easily digestable bites. This is also our last newsletter for the quarter and we'll resume our informative duties at the end of July.

This weekend we'll be doing some major house cleaning and consequently there will be no network access over the weekend. This is the perfect opportunity for you to ignore your e-mail and enjoy a technology detox.

If you're going on holiday and driving, be safe and enjoy the break.

Tech greetings, The IT crowd
