Actually, SCSI is an interface. Not sure who this bear is. Neither are Matt, Rich, and returning guest host Dave Seibert of managed service provider IT Innovators and the SMB TechFest event series.

One year after the launch of an all-new program for data center partners, Lenovo is making headway in its quest for greater market share.

The new functionality is one item on a long list of updates and integrations for the company’s RMM, PSA, security, BDR, and other MSP solutions.

The changes are designed to encourage electrical contractors, consultants, and engineering firms on the one hand and IT partners on the other to collaborate in pursuit of burgeoning opportunities in the data center and edge computing markets.

Version 5.1 adds a fully native iPad app and provides enhanced integration with Datto’s Autotask PSA and Splashtop’s remote control system.

Thanks to some last-minute complimacations, Matt and Rich have no guest host this week and no guest interview. But that doesn’t stop them from discussing Datto’s interesmating backup deletion defense and Azure continuity solutions, plus AMD’s latest server processors and the implimacations of last year’s PPP and EIDL loans for your tax bill.

Don’t recognize a few of those words? Technically, that’s because they’re not words. They just should be.
