As people look for ways to cut costs and save money, one of the results in
the computer industry is that fewer people will buy new computers this year,
according to a recent forecast by Forrest Research.

“Purchases of computers and peripheral equipment will actually fall by
about 4 per cent from last year, but increased outlays for software,
services and communications equipment will power modest growth,” reports
Simon Avery in the Technology section of the Globe and Mail.
Jonathan Lyster, CTO of Tugboat Enterprises, the publishers of Selkie
Software, says this can only be a good thing for companies providing
software and services that assist people with older, or unreliable, computer
equipment. “The expected decrease in purchases of computers means that
companies will be using older equipment – equipment that's wearing out,
equipment that's more likely to fail,” Lyster says. “We have already started
to see an increase in sales with questions related to older hardware
models.”
Selkie Software is an essential part of any computer user’s toolkit. It’s
a powerful break-through technology that by-passes broken Windows systems to
access and recover data. Selkie Software uses Intelligent File Sorting to
identify and prioritize files for recovery or migration, providing
guaranteed successful retrieval or migration of all desktop data. Selkie
Software works over a network, from a USB memory stick or
computer-to-computer via cable and gives users the choice of push or pull
capabilities. Selkie will recover all desktop files and migrate them to a
new desktop in exactly the same order as they existed originally.
Selkie Software was designated an Emerging Technology for 2008 by
Computer Reseller News (CRN) because of the valuable opportunities it
provides home users, IT professionals, and large companies to save money,
time, and data.
