Linux and Open Source Strategy and Support - Illinois

print this article 
 

Transparen Corporation provides advanced technical support to companies using Linux. We provide this support in two ways. For companies in Surrey, British Columbia; in Toronto; or in the Greater Toronto Area, we provide on-site and remote service. For companies far from our support locations, we can provide remote support using SSH.

The Linux kernel is only one of many open source software projects, some of which have reached a level of quality equal or superior to their proprietary counterparts.

What does Linux mean to your organization? Transparen's consultants can:

  • Guide you through an assessment of current technology requirements
  • Provide insights into what technologies are available to meet needs
  • Demonstrate how to introduce and integrate Linux solutions into alternate technology frameworks
  • Answer questions about whether and/or how Linux-native technologies may satisfy your unique requirements

The services that Transparen Corp. provides in relation to Linux include (without limitation) the following:

  • Consulting packages - Unlimited 30 minute calls to Transparen to ask our specialists about problems related to Linux. Available in 3 month, 6 month, 1 year, and 2 year plans.
  • Support packages - Unlimited on-call support for Linux-related problems, based on the number of servers to support. Available in 3 month, 6 month, 1 year, and 2 year plans.

 Boutique Firms Well-Positioned in Current Economy
While some boutique firms have suffered serious blows from the economy, many are seeing distinct advantages over larger competitors when it comes to weathering the storm, say boutique leaders and law firm observers. Boutiques generally have much lower overhead costs, little to no major debt, and more flexibility when it comes to costs and billing rates. One boutique chairman likens the difference between big firms and boutiques to the difference between driving a Lincoln Town Car and a Ferrari.
 
 Networking Success for the Single Attorney
Previously, the American Dream meant getting married and having kids and a suburban life, but now many people are savoring their unmarried lifestyles. For single attorneys, being unattached doesn't have to negatively impact networking. They can leverage the freedom of being single to creatively develop their business networks. With the benefits of being single, though, come some drawbacks, such as having to deal more with drawing the line between professional and personal contacts.
 
 More Americans Foregoing Lawyers and Representing Themselves
The number of people serving as their own lawyers is on the rise across the U.S., and the cases are no longer limited to uncontested divorces and small claims. Even people embroiled in child custody cases, potentially devastating lawsuits and bankruptcies are representing themselves, legal experts say. Court systems are clogged with filings from people unfamiliar with legal procedure, and many states now offer self-help Web sites or other services to alleviate the problems.
 
 Financial Crisis Especially Hard for Solos, Psychiatrist Says
Lawyer-turned-psychiatrist Elizabeth Tillinghast says that the current economic crisis is "a second 9/11" in which lawyers are "worried about generating money, collecting money and holding on to their jobs." And Tillinghast suggests that for solo and small-firm attorneys, the personal toll can be higher than for other attorneys, because they are more immediately affected. Such attorneys also tend to become more personally involved with their clients, which can also have an impact, says Tillinghast.
 
 How One Small Firm Is Coping With the Economic Crisis
In 23 years, Los Angeles firm Richardson & Patel had never let anyone go. Even during the dot-com bust, the firm, which focuses primarily on corporate and securities work, had continued to grow. But in September, the firm laid off five associates and six staff members. "It was the hardest thing I've ever done," says partner Nimish Patel. Back in August 2007, the firm took some steps in response to a perceived slowdown, but things didn't improve. Eventually, Patel realized he'd have to do something drastic.
 
 Sanctions Upheld Against Lawyer for Informing Client About Trade Secrets
A California appeals court affirmed sanctions of almost $44,000 against an IP lawyer last week for informing her client that trade secrets, which the opposing party intended to be filed under seal, were in the court's public file. The court ruled that attorney Joanna Mendoza should have known she was violating a protective order even though the document was publicly available, noting that 250 of the document's 800 pages were marked confidential and the front page said it was filed under seal.
 
 Titan of Torts Loses Contract Dispute Over Associate Bonus
Robert I. Reardon has won so many multimillion-dollar settlements and verdicts for plaintiffs that he's a veritable titan of torts. But in his long-running contract fight over a former associate's bonus, Reardon suffered a recent loss before the Connecticut Appellate Court. Not only did the court affirm an award of a $50,000 bonus to the former associate, but it remanded the case to allow the lower court to determine whether Reardon's contract breach required him to pay double damages.
 
 First Trial Under Landmark Fla. Tobacco Ruling to Begin
The widow of a smoker who died from lung cancer brings the nation's biggest cigarette producer to court this week in the first trial spawned by a Florida Supreme Court ruling that decreed smoking is dangerous and addictive and causes disease. But before Elaine Hess can benefit from the landmark decision in the wake of the death of her husband, Stuart, plaintiffs lawyers must prove that he would have been part of a class of sick Florida smokers that was disbanded by the 2006 court decision.
