Salmon Bay Technology

I had a project where I was working with a manufacturer's website that contained a bunch of data which I needed to access and get into a "useable" format. I happened to mention it to Erin at SBT and he told me that he could easily "write a script" that would pull the necessary information I needed and extract into a useable excel/CSV format where I could edit and fine tune (in lieu of the current process where I was copying and pasting from the website or a PDF). Within a matter of hours he sent me the file--saving me countless hours, days even months of pulling 10's of thousands of lines of data in the manual fashion I was attempting. From here on out, I'm going to make sure to consult with Erin for my database or technology needs in the interest of saving time and money. He allowed me to work smarter, not harder. Thanks Erin! more

If you have a serious computer security matter go elsewhere. Advised him that I had just that due to multiple reinstalls and new computers and hard drives with all reasonable precautions taken. His response was "I'll do it as a challenge." I had told him that I thought something was inherent in the motherboard because of frequent reinstalls I had done. One month and about $250 later after he provided "security" services the security problem again arose again resulting in the crash of a newer laptop. My last communication to him via email was "Your Arrogance Belies Your Ignorance." And in that communication I sent him a link to a March 2009 article entitled called "Researchers Aim Low for Root Kit Hardware." The article concerned insidious BIOS virus root kits and commented on just how difficult detection and removal of such viruses is. (Now I know that minimally a BIOS has to be flashed to even begin to be successful against such a beast and it apparently takes about five minutes to do that. This article was found by me in an on line search about security about three months after he provided his "security" services in September, 2010. Advice: Don't be a victim of false arrogance. more
