Podcast: Bandwidth management with Ron Barrett

Sometimes the best tools to help create “A Better Windows World” are the ones that help keep the underlying infrastructure running well.

In this podcast I provide tips for bandwidth-management service providers to help organizations successfully deploy these solutions.

After all, users with a quad-core CPU and 4GB of DDR3 memory in their computer will see no difference in data movement to and from their system if the bandwidth is being eaten up by most of the users in the organization listening to my podcasts.

Just joking! Podcasts are good… Especially mine -- it is everything else you want to block out. In fact, I think a good strategy for bandwidth management is one that includes users' being given access to my podcasts and blog posts and everything else being blocked. What do you think -- a little over the top?

I don’t think so but either way, enjoy the podcast. You can listen or download it here: Broadband management with Ron Barrett. I hope it helps to make your world A Better Windows World!
