This “test” was well above the 48″ most laptops are drop tested and much higher than the 72″ that the X1 had been tested for. The truth is ThinkPads are probably not going to be subjected to this kind of brutal exercise but it is satisfying to see that if we do have a mis hap that the product is durable.

It’s light, powerful and durable, I’d like to introduce you to my next laptop the Lenovo Thinkpad X1.

The files were .ncc files which are programs for CNC machining. This particular client has been using our remote backup services for close to ten years. We were able to recover the files they needed from 2005 saving them hours of labor and lost production to manufacture these parts. There response was not intended to be a public message so we’ve hidden their name to protect the innocent but these are the exact words in their email we received after sending them the files in .zip format:

“Joe that is it dude. You are the man!!!!!!!!!!!”

You really can’t make this stuff up, it’s honest and real. I wanted to share it with anyone who happens to follow us or is curious about the types of work we do.

This Email absolutely made my day. I asked her for permission to post it on our website as a testimonial and I did not change a word because the message is wonderful as is:

“I want you to know Mike saved my bacon again this am, within minutes. I’ve been trying to think of a way to verbalize how much  we rely on Managed Solutions and how much we trust and appreciate you. We feel you guys are not just one of our vendors but also part of our team, not only interested in us doing well but oddly enough, our success becoming your success also. We see you as just one of us, but named Joe and Mike. Anyway, I’ll come up with something when my thinking cap is on.”

Toni – thank you for this wonderful endorsement. We are very happy to work with you and thrilled that you think of us this way.
