Microsoft has completed expansion of its facility in Fargo, N.D., with the opening of a third building that increased the amount of space available to 120,000 sq. ft.

INTACCT DITCHED 2009 SHOW
- Wednesday, 21 October 2009
- News and Analysis
- Written by mark
There had to be a reason Intacct didn't mention its user/reseller conference on its Web site and that’s because the company decided to cancel the 2009 rendition and plan on one for 2010. It also did not make any reseller awards this year. A spokesperson said the economy scotched the plan, which puts it in good company. The last show, Advantage 2008, was held in September last year. I guess it's safe to say there's no Advantage in 2009.

- News and Analysis
- Written by mark
It's not a major push, but AccountMate CEO David Dierke said at this week's Synergy reseller show that the company is selectively looking for new VARs. That's the first time I've heard that from Accountmate in a few years. There were a handful of invitees who carry other products and I ran into one familiar face whose organization carries competing products. AccountMate faces the same problem that keeps source-code companies small--its resellers tend to service the installed base and not make many new sales.

- Written by mark
Kids, you may have to ask your parents to explain some of these terms. But last month, Cyma Systems began offering what it called "aggressive upgrade pricing for legacy DOS-based accounting software clients" for the rest of the year. At Solider Field this month, some of us Intuit attendees were debating how much DOS is out there, particular in areas like Accpac Plus since the world did not come to an end on Jan. 1, 2000. (Well, I don't think it did.)

DELL OFFERS HUSH MONEY

- News and Analysis
- Written by mark
Some may remember how a tech support call I made to Dell turned into a data deletion episode. The tech rep solved my inability to log on to my Vista-based machine, but also wiped out all my data files, which I had carefully backed up before the call. I spent $134 for the privilege. I forced the tech rep to stay on the line for 40 minutes while I restored all those files from my nifty Click-free drive.
