  "Today, there is a broad spectrum of vendor selection requirements
that depend on the size and geographic scope of a user organization, it's attitude towards
IT (Information Technology), its ability to manage the hardware base, and the criticality
of resources on the desktop (i.e., mission-critical C/S applications). Many large
organizations are struggling with how to manage the acquisition and deployment of PC
hardware across national and international boundaries. A number of vendors are taking
steps to help multinational customers streamline PC acquisitions and deployment through
multinational and large-account support teams, international re-seller programs that
provide single points of contact, and standardized pricing. Smaller organizations (many of
which have more-limited resources) may have different sets of requirements, which are also
attempting to reduce the complexity in the installed base as well the administrative and
support burden."

Teamwork. Cooperation. Synergy.
Collaboration. These words remain our continued focus and goals
for Amigo! Communications as we continue to chart our course into 2007 and plan for 2008. The Small Business owner continues to have
their share of challenges to maintain service levels, keeping technology refreshed and still provide
profit for the bottom line. Amigo! Communications understands those challenges and continues to respond to the calls.
With so many technologies available to end-users and industry dictating timelines and business issues, successful integration will
require timely and cost effective solutions. Only through developing strong business affiliations
with the expertise in these varying areas of technology can the SMB (small to medium business)
remain competitive and meet the business issues of our customers. Companies continue to downsize,
rightsize, consolidate and do whatever it takes to make the bottom-line. This means past months represented
lost wages to some, which is very unfortunate. In our opinion, keeping abreast with change means keeping current with
technology while avoiding the "cutting to the bone" syndrome, which always results in losing good talent among the ranks.
Systems Integration, Network Engineering and Data Communications are becoming more and more standard technologies
and Amigo! Communications, though our business affiliates continue to remain up
for the challenge. Diversity is the key to any successful endeavor. Application design is another area we can help your business. For a peek,

Through offering a diverse mix of services within the Amigo! business portfolio, it is our continued goal to maintain all of our Amigos! as we move towards 2010 and beyond.
The Gartner Group clearly outlines the need for external resources for technology procurement
and the reasons why companies are doing so. With this, coupled with good leadership
and great Amigos! on our team, I believe the most exciting times are yet to come.
