FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Millennium Technology Consulting LLC Provides Free Software Options to Small and Medium Businesses

Millennium Technology Consulting LLC has been recently organized to provide free software options for small to medium sized businesses that struggle with the need to upgrade their computers in a time of shrinking budgets. The company provides the highest quality consulting and training services to assist small to medium sized companies realize significant cost savings, improved computer and network security, and significant performance benefits by upgrading to Open Source solutions.

Company President David Both says, “Due to the current economic downturn we beleive that many small to medium sized businesses are trying to extend the life of their current computer hardware and that small business startups want to maximize the value for each IT dollar spent. High quality Free Open Source Software (FOSS) can minimize IT costs while allowing both new and existing companies to acquire new software and increase their level of security and protection from malware such as viruses and the recent Conficker worm.

“Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols in his recent Computer World article, 100% cure for Conficker says, ‘The sad truth is no matter what you do with Windows, whether you’re running XP, Vista, or the Windows 7 beta, you’re not safe. Now, however there’s a patch that will stop Conficker, and almost all other malware programs, in their tracks. It’s called Linux.’”

Linux is the best known example of Open Source software as the no-cost operating system replacement for Windows. Other Open Source software includes complete Office suites, double-entry bookkeeping, and the Open Source software most people have already heard about, the Firefox web browser and Thunderbird email client.

Millennium Technology Consulting LLC provides assistance with making the switch to Open Source Software, training for users and administrators, and continuing services to monitor and maintain computers running Open Source software.
