		<description>Vlad, good luck with your quiet time, I normally escape to the mountains west of Calgary to do the same thing.  Even at $6.00 a gallon for gas here in Calgary, it is worth the hour drive to clear my head and totally disengage.

Tough times are coming our way here in North America, the days of business falling in our laps is over.  You need to have a creative edge to really make an impact.  Although we are NOT a partner of yours, I agree that hosting and solutions that you offer will be required and all the guys that purely focused on MSP and Break/Fix good luck.  I really hate the term MSP.  I have been doing it for 10 years and it was just the way to do IT services naturally for me here.  

Having a myriad of services to offer was also a key success strategy.  Vlad, some guys just don&#039;t understand.
