TODAY'S TOP STORY

Plug By Plug
James Gaskin, ITworld.com

Power issues usually mean the increasing demand for power in data
centers. But power issues can be as simple as turning off remote devices
without asking an untrained user to climb around your computer
equipment. I saw a couple of advanced new plug strips at the Data Center
World show in Dallas last month.

Seven Ways Top-Performing Companies Get Ahead of the Pack

All leaders want to be part of a top-performing company. All employees
do, too. And partners and customers seek out businesses that are at the
top of their game, as well. It's natural to want to spend our working
hours engaged with dynamic organizations that flourish, not struggling
ones that flounder. But have you ever wondered what makes a company a
top performer? Rick Lepsinger has, and when his company did a research
study on a related subject, he discovered some surprising answers.
