5 TAKTIK CERDAS BILL GATES SELAMA PROSES NEGOSIASI
TAKTIK 1 Biarkan pihak lawan menyebutkan harga lebih dulu. Saat berunding tentang sebuah harga, cobalah untuk mendorong pihak lain untuk membuat penawaran terlebih dahulu.

10 things you should know about open source before you use it
By Jack Wallen | May 18, 2011, 7:52 AM PDT I remember a day when the mention of open source in a business setting — no matter the size of the business — was unthinkable. The times they have changed, and open source is no longer considered a pariah. In fact, open source is often now considered first when a solution is needed. But when open source is being considered, certain things must be known. If you just dive in head first, there may well be some surprises waiting for you. To keep new open source users from losing their sanity, I thought it…

Even the datacenter is mobile driven
By David Chernicoff | May 13, 2011, 8:51am PDT When Unisys announced new additions to its Clearpath Enterprise Server line, the Dorado and Libra 800, the lead information provided about the new servers wasn't so much focused on the mission critical role that these servers are designed to play as it was on the fact that they can be accessed via mobile devices. Unisys makes some very interesting enterprise-class server products that reflect well on its heritage as a mainframe computer provider. They are in the process of moving their server…
Cooling management appliance a perfect fit for legacy datacenters
By David Chernicoff | May 12, 2011, 6:47am PDT With so many changes going on in the way that datacenters are built and equipped, the huge amount of new construction being done, and the wealth of new technology focused on building state-of-the-art facilities, it is sometimes easy to lose sight of the fact that the majority of datacenters in use aren't in a position to take advantage of all of the advances in facilities design and management.

Maximum energy efficiency may require single source datacenter
By David Chernicoff | May 11, 2011, 9:50am PDT One of the keys to building an energy efficient datacenter is to minimize energy wasting operations. This might seem obvious, but the ramifications of the process might not be. Beyond looking at power delivery, cooling solutions, and IT hardware that operates as efficiently as possible, there is the issue of managing all of these disparate elements and a single entity. The goal of delivering power, cooling, and computing power only when and where needed in many ways defines the focus for datacent…
10 pitfalls of rookie management teams
By Steve Tobak | May 10, 2011, 8:33 AM PDT I've worked with and consulted for hundreds of startups, entrepreneurs, and relatively inexperienced management teams. I also was an inexperienced executive myself, once upon a time. Lots of water under the bridge, I can tell you that. Now, I wouldn't begrudge anyone the unique growth experience of learning from his own mistakes, especially the wisdom and humility that only failure can impart on the executive ego. That said, savvy managers listen to the voice of experience. They may choose to …
10 reasons why you should give Slackware Linux a chance
By Jack Wallen | May 11, 2011, 11:37 AM PDT Slackware. You've either used it, thought about using it, or you're scared of using it. Slackware Linux is one of the most powerful distributions available. But that power comes with a price — it's not nearly as user-friendly as many other distributions. In fact, Slackware is typically bested only by Gentoo for level of difficulty. But if you avoid Slackware, you miss out on quite a lot. I can think of at least 10 reasons why you should give Slackware a try (or another chance). Before you…

Five tips for conducting webinars that work
By Katherine Murray | April 26, 2011, 2:45 PM PDT Picture this: You've been preparing for a big meeting all week. You plan to roll out the latest pitch for the products your group has been designing. All the top-level managers will be there and you really want to hit a home run. Minutes before the meeting, you walk quietly to your office and close the door.
