How To Use Signatures in Outlook 2010

Microsoft provides some great resources to help users learn how to use their products.  From simple How-To documents to videos and even live training.  I will publish some of these resources on this blog. 

In this multimedia training module you will learn how to create and use professional (or not) looking signatures in Outlook 2010.  The concepts are similar for earlier versions of Outlook but may be slightly different.

One note I would add to this session.  Outlook, Outlook for Web Access and Outlook mobile do not use the same signature template.  You must create a signature in each of these Outlook modes.  The session does discuss setting up a signature in Outlook for Web Access.  You will need to use your mobile phone email application to create your “mobile” signature.

No More Pre-Installed Windows XP on New Laptops/Workstations/Netbooks

Today is the 1 year anniversary of the release of Windows 7.  And it is also the first day that Microsoft is no longer allowing Windows XP to be preinstalled on any workstations/laptops/netbooks. 

For the most part, our Clients have been switching to Windows 7 when buying new workstations and laptops.  We have seen very few issues.  The phase out of Windows XP has been publicized for quite some time now, so it should be a shock to no one.  It’s time to move forward!

Largest Windows Update Release Ever

On Tuesday, Microsoft released its largest set of security patches ever.  Patches for 16 security related issues were released.  10 of these patches are rated critical, 5 are rated important and 1 is less critical.  We have begun our testing process and will start releasing the updates to our Monitoring Plus Clients on Monday October 18th.  More detailed information on these patches can be found here.
