Posted on August 24, 2007July 2, 2013

The SAPIEN Technologies Story

Posted on April 4, 2007August 5, 2009

Companies and people can also have a back story. Maybe I’ll reveal some of mine someday. In the mean time, I came across SAPIEN Technologies back story…

Updated PowerShell Help Utility

Posted on February 19, 2007August 5, 2009

SAPIEN Technologies has released a new version of their free PowerShellHelp tool. This tool gets all the help information from your PowerShell installation and presents it in a nice GUI that now looks like Office 2007. The screen shot doesn’t really do it justice, but you get the idea. Not only will you get alias…

Windows PowerShell: TFM Out of stock

Posted on January 23, 2007July 2, 2013

Amazon is again showing that Windows PowerShell: TFM is unavailable. Apparently they sold out of the initial order of books. Last I knew, SAPIEN Press was waiting for Amazon to place a re-order. Given the time it takes to ship books it could be a bit before Amazon gets re-stocked. If you can’t wait, remember…

PowerShell TFM in stock!!

Posted on January 12, 2007August 5, 2009

Amazon finally has copies of Windows PowerShell:TFM in stock. The book now shows as available and shipping. I’m hoping it won’t take them long to get through the pre-order backlog.
