10 best download-only games
Michael Plant
Michael Plant is chief editor and writer of gaming ezine and blog GamesCatalyst.com, as well as editor of 'The Independent''s games review printed in the Saturday supplement 'Information'. Established in February 2011, Games Catalyst endeavours to bring its unique brand of fact and satire to the videogaming community and, in tandem with 'The Independent', hopefully turn a few non-believers on to gaming while we're at it.
Monday 02 April 2012
With Thatgamecompany's Journey clocking up perfect scores on gaming sites around the world, it seemed only right to look at alternative download-only games worth your time and hard earned cash. Just to clarify, that's anything not available on store shelves so long as it's an original game – that excludes the Wii's back catalogue, etc., so stop sharpening those knives over the lack of Mario 64 et al. Other than that it's fair game, so if we missed something, tell us about it.
Frozen Synapse
Format: PC/Mac (Steam)
Publisher: Mode 7
Mode 7's top-down game of planning and strategy has been compared to all kinds of classics, from Counter-Strike and Laser Squad to the granddaddy of all tactical games that is chess. Set in a futuristic online world where factions vie for control of sectors, you're presented with a squad of soldiers and pitted to plan their every move in a bid to destroy the opposing force. The gimmick is that as you draw up you next move the opposition is doing the exact same thing but – and here's the real kicker – both teams move simultaneously so demonstrating exactly who has the superior stratagem; brilliant.
Sine Mora
Format: Xbox 360 (XBLA)
Publisher: Microsoft
Classic style shoot-em-ups don't come much more rewarding, or better presented, than Sine Mora, Grasshopper Inc.'s take on the 'bullet hell' genre. An unfathomable plot which depicts of rebels – who might have just stepped off the island of Dr. Moreau – rising up against a corrupt regime plays second fiddle to the action which will soon have players conducting thumb gymnastics. Central to gameplay is the notion of time which not only represents your remaining health – each shot suffered diminishing vital seconds – but can also be manipulated in Matrix-like style when the going inevitable gets tough. Imaginative, pulsating and satisfyingly tricky to master, a must for fans of the genre.
LostWinds: Winter of the Melodias
Format: Wii (WiiWare)
Publisher: Frontier Developments
The WiiWare section of the Wii's online store has, on the whole, been woefully represented with only the odd title raising an eyebrow – Swords & Soldiers, World of Goo and LostWinds amongst them. The sequel to the latter however, is the best of the bunch, a beautifully animated side-scrolling, puzzling platformer which makes brilliant use of the seasons – the lay of the land changing depending on whether it's winter or summer. That Winter of the Melodias features some of the most subtle yet brilliant motion controls – quickly shaking the wiimote to make a tornado for example – only adds to spectacle.
Format: PC (Steam)
Publisher: Alientrap Games Inc
I stumbled across Capsized when scouring the Steam Store updates and there's just something about the way it looks that makes it stand out in a crowd. Once up and running those visuals are even better, a curious combination of the retro and cutting edge as its otherworldly vistas are brought vividly to life. The minimalist plot sees you taking the role of an anonymous survivor of a spacecraft crash who, having jettisoned to a nearby planet, sets out to look for a way off the bizarre and alien rock he finds himself on. Perfectly handled physics allow the wily astronaut to lasso rocks, boulders, etc. with his energy whip, make gravity assisted bounds to traverse chasms or else attempt to get the drop on the planet's inspired but deadly fauna.
The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile
Format: Xbox 360 (XBLA)
Publisher: Microsoft
Ska Studios staffed by just two designers, lead developer James Silva and art 'unicorn' Michelle Juett, have made a few well received games in their time with the likes of I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES 1N IT!!!1 (2009), but it wasn't until they won the 2007 Microsoft Dream-Build-Play game development contest with slasher The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai that their name was cemented well and truly on the gaming map. The sequel The Dishwasher: Vampire Smile continues along the same vane of large quantities of ultra violence but hones the combat system allowing for choreographed blood-letting perfectly balanced with free-running ninja stylings, all wrapped up in painstakingly animated clothing as Yuki takes her blood-spattered revenge.
Super Meat Boy
Format: Xbox 360 (XBLA), PC, Mac (Steam)
Publisher: Xbox Live Arcade, Windows, Mac OS X, Linux
Is it a bird? Is a plane? No, it's a hunk of rotting meat bounding over your TV screen – eww. Super Meat Boy might split opinion for being a tad gross, not to mention as difficult as hell, but there's no doubt it takes the standard platform formula and turns it up to eleven. Thankfully the game's controls are so responsive that guiding SMB through any number of spikes and saws remains – just about – on the right said of fair; yes you'll die (lots) but the frustration rarely gets so great that the payoff upon finally winning through isn't worth the hassle.
Format: Xbox 360 (XBLA), PC (Steam)
Publisher: Team Meat
There are moments within Braids' myriad time-based puzzles that provide real ' eureka!' moments, as the tortuous route to a particularly bafflingly placed pick-up finally appears in your mind's eye, as if by osmosis. The time shifting powers are hard to define, and much grater in scope than say the latter day's Prince of Persia's similar time manipulation, but it's how these powers are used in ever more elaborate ways throughout the game's length that is truly impressive – well that and the fact the graphics and gameplay combine in an emotive, emotional way – timeless (get it?).
Shadow Complex
Format: Xbox 360 (XBLA)
Publisher: Microsoft
So good at 'doing' Metroid that it made the subsequent Wii title, Metroid: Other M, seem decidedly bereft of ideas and graphical finery by way of comparison. It tells the standard ' girlfriend captured, rescue girfriend' story, but it's in the way main character Jason Fleming is spoon fed enhancements that the title's true genius shines through; that and the awesome backdrops you'll play through in its almost-3D-but-not-quite side-on perspective – thanks Unreal Engine 3. That's not to mention the bosses which never fall short of spectacular; roll on the inevitable sequel.
Format: Xbox 360 (XBLA)
Publisher: Microsoft
Isolation, separation, obligation, and many other kinds of ' ations' are expolored in the heart-achingly poignant Limbo, the tale of a boy descending into well… limbo, in search of his sister. From the affecting use of greyscale to the very bleakness of the barren landscapes, it's a tour de force of understatement while practical but inspired puzzles and platforming draw us in for all of its three precious hours of gameplay. If Darren Aronofsky made a game, Limbo surely wouldn't be far from what he'd come up with; staggering.
Format: PS3
Publisher: Sony
And so, our summary of what's best and brightest of the download-only market ends, perhaps inevitably, with Flower; Thatgamecompany's petal blowing on the wind simulator that somehow defied all odds to become at once one of gaming's brightest stars and went straight to the top of the list of all those who would hold up games as art. Its premise is simple, guide a petal through various glowing flowers, so gaining an ever increasing trail of petals. There's no real challenge, no time limit, no end of level boss, just a stress free journey through meadows and eventually urban cities, as nature is restored to the environment all at the whimsy of the summer breeze.

Chaque année au Canada, des dizaines de milliers de bébés phoques du Groenland sont tués pour leur fourrure.
Today, we had our second flight to search for seals. For three days all of us have been wondering where the seals are and what was going on. What is unusual for this season is not only the absence of seals, but also the weather.
Many years ago, Masha Vorontsova, from the International Fund for Animal Welfare's Russia office, suggested to Oleg and Marina Prodan to create a seal watching program on the White Sea in the Russian north. This idea was met with enthusiasm by the couple. They built deep in the forest a high-level ecotourism hotel called the Wildlife Discovery Club.
Everyone at the International Fund for Animal Welfare is deeply saddened by last week's news that the 50 seals found earlier this week on Prince Edward Island were beaten brutally and left to freeze to death.

Janet these new water based paints seem to have a plastic- y consistency when they're dry . I've noticed when I take the lids off there's sometimes a long stretchy thread of it where it's dried round the lid. I've got a bench here which was left by the previous owner and it's exactly like you describe. I'm going to strip it all off with a paint scraper then re treat it. It may have been originally done with an oil based paint as Bob says. Perhaps you'd have to do the same with yours, and maybe sand it as well before you re paint. That might be the best solution. All the new wood I've painted recently seems fine but at my last house we spent ages painting a new run of intricate trellis with Ronseal paint and it looked quite poor after a few months. We think the paint didn't get time to cure properly before the wet autumn and winter.The oil based paints are far better but most of them seem to be water soluble now.
I asked the same thing earlier Bob! Thought it was a new fashion
You can update us all re your troubles tomorrow Stacey . Perhaps GG's MOB rants thread needs pushing up the board.
Tina and Stacey - you both sound like you need to post on it
Verd - I like the idea of comical hollies
wb -that made me laugh...not because you were ill I hasten to add! I can just picture you all with the dodgy Uri Geller cutlery
chick...or three
Stacey that's a beauty. Verdun loves his hellebores! He may forgive you
Gggirl I was wondering about Woody this morning because the 4th Test match started today and they were talking about it on the news. He's not been on for a while. Perhaps he's having a nice holiday.
GG glad you had a lovely time at your wedding.
MrsG- I've never like them...sorry
nowt to do with me Stacey...honest...
Although... since I don't like fuchsias......
Girls are suggesting curry MrsG- but won't be going near any pubs! Don't you be going down there after him -not after last week when you were a bit tipsy
BLizzie- re your pic from last night- does look like E.Violette. Do the backs of the flowers look silvery grey when they're opening? Flowers are smallish -about 3".
It's beautiful anyway even if it's not EV!
Looks like Hibiscus to me Jet but I've never grown it so I may be totally wrong!
MrsG -we're doing the same- a little takeaway! Well it is the first day of my holiday
Can't be bothered cooking as I want to go out and cut the grass now that it'll be dry adn I've been concreting so I'm weary.
Fidget- you're too good. Apple and blackberry pie for me please! Is destrigging the proper name for taking all the 'bits' off? Not heard that before.

Get to know a draft pick — Elias Lindholm
Jun 27, 2013, 3:53 PM EDT
Leading up to the 2013 NHL Entry Draft in New Jersey, we'll be profiling top prospects who may hear their names called Sunday in the first round. Nothing too in-depth. Just enough so you know who they are and what they're about.
Elias Lindholm (C)
Height: 6'0 Weight: 181 Shoots: Right
Team: Brynas IF Gavle (SEL)
Country: Sweden
NHL Central Scouting ranking: No. 3 among European skaters
What kind of player is he?
He's a versatile, two-way forward that's known for being highly competitive. Lindholm already has experience playing with men in the Swedish Elite League where he recorded 11 goals and 30 points in 48 games in 2012-13.
He's the product of a hockey family, with his father, Mikael, enjoying a lengthy career in Europe and Sweden in particular. Mikael Lindholm also had a 18-contest stint with the Los Angeles Kings during his career. His cousin, Calle Jarnkrok, was taken by the Detroit Red Wings in the second round of the 2010 NHL Draft.
Lindholm has been compared favorably to Peter Forsberg and Mike Richards.
"He's a great leader. Even though he's very young, he's still very mature. He plays in the Elite League and has a big role there and he came into (the WJC) with a lot of experience. He communicated a lot on the bench and in the locker room." — Anaheim Ducks prospect Rickard Rakell (per Yahoo! Sports)

Four Year Old Helps Raise Money For Cancer
Submitted: 05/05/2013
Shardaa Gray
Photos By Shardaa Gray
- A local four year old made one of the biggest sacrifices a four year old can make to help his friend.
When Hank Kowieski learned his friends dad had Leukemia, he told his parents he wanted to sell some of his toys to raise money.
So Saturday they had a rummage sale to do just that.
"A four year old coming to tell you he wants to sell some of his toys that he has for people, I'm so proud of him, I'm proud of his brother Brody and his friend Carter and just people that have helped out," Hank's father, Brad Kowieski said.
"Four year old's are showing the adults of what we can do as people and it warms the heart."
What they weren't expecting was for the word to spread so quickly.
Many donations came from out of town.
"We got a lot of support from people out of town, all the way from Marquette to local people around Rhinelander that were just touched by the fact that they knew we had a son that was doing this," said Kowieski.
"They had people who had lost to cancer. So they sent checks. We had checks from Florida, we had checks from Michigan."
Hank raised more than five hundred dollars.

Wisconsin governor's race remains dead heat
Submitted: 08/28/2014
- The latest Marquette University Law School poll shows Gov. Scott Walker and Democratic challenger Mary Burke remain in a dead heat.
The latest results released Wednesday show little movement in the race with 10 weeks until Election Day. Polls in May and July also showed the race to be essentially tied.
The latest poll shows Walker with 47.5 percent support among registered voters, compared with 44 percent for Burke. That is within the poll's 3.5 percentage point margin of error.

Students help incoming freshmen feel comfortable about starting high school
Submitted: 08/28/2014
- Starting high school can be scary for incoming freshmen. One Northwoods high school wanted to help freshman before they start school.
Rhinelander High School held their freshman orientation Thursday. New students got the chance to do team building, get their Chromebooks and tour the school.
Juniors and seniors were there to help the freshmen.
"I think it helps them feel a little bit more comfortable with the high school surroundings," says Junior Emily Ditzler. "You know, walking in on the first day of high school you're not sure where to go. But orientation helps them know exactly where their classes are 'cause they get their schedules right now, and they can become familiar with the teachers and with their homerooms."

White House: Obama to be in Milwaukee on Labor Day
Submitted: 08/28/2014
- The White House says President Barack Obama will travel to Milwaukee on Monday to speak at a Labor Day event. It gave no specifics about the event.
A spokesman for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mary Burke said she will attend Laborfest on Monday. Burke won't take the stage with President Obama.
Burke spokesman Joe Zepecki says it is not appropriate for Burke to speak at the rally Obama is attending because it is an official White House event and not a campaign rally. Zepecki says Burke has invited Obama to return for a campaign event before the election and is optimistic that will happen.

School District of Antigo loses 18 teachers to retirement, could face a similar problem next year
Submitted: 08/28/2014
- The School District of Antigo will see a lot of new faces this fall.
The district hired 26 new teachers this year.
They lost so many teachers last year because of retirements and teachers leaving for bigger districts.
The district can't always pay as much as larger ones.
Especially specialty teachers like special education or science.
"We've tended overall on average to be in the middle of the pack but at some levels we're falling behind," says Antigo School District Interim District Administrator Don Childs. "Particularly in areas of high need and specialty. You'll find there are districts that are willing to pay premiums for and that sometimes draws people as well away from another district."

Bill Vaughan Quote
Picture Quote:
Bill Vaughan
Born: October 8, 1915
Died: February 25, 1977 (age 61)
Nationality: American
Occupation: Journalist, columnist
Bio: William E. Vaughan was an American columnist and author. Born in Saint Louis, Missouri, he wrote a syndicated column for the Kansas City Star from 1946 until his death in 1977. He was published in Reader's Digest and Better Homes and Gardens under the pseudonym Burton Hillis. He attended Washington University in St. Louis.
Quote of the day
"A house without books is like a room without windows. No man has a right to bring up his children without surrounding them with books, if he has the means to buy them. It is wrong to his family. Children learn to read by being in the presence of books. The love of knowledge comes with reading and grows upon it. And the love of knowledge, in a young mind, is almost a warrant against the inferior excitement of passions and vices."

Found July 26, 2013 on Fox Soccer:
PLAYERS: Gareth Bale
Tottenham have completed the £7million signing of Nacer Chadli from FC Twente after the winger passed a medical and agreed personal terms. The 23-year-old, who spent three years in the Eredivisie with Twente and scored in both Champions League ties against Spurs in 2010, is with his new club on their preseason trip to Hong Kong and could feature against South China on Saturday. Chadli has 14 international caps for Belgium after initially representing Morocco in a non-competitive fixture. Although utilized as a striker by his country, he has played most of his club soccer on the left wing and could fill the position vacated by Gareth Bale following his move inside at the end of last season. He becomes the second major acquisition of the summer for Andre Villas-Boas following the arrival of Brazil international midfielder Paulinho from Corinthians.

A NPR report "Unfit For Work" notes the startling rise in those on disability. Here are some interesting facts from the article.
People who leave the workforce and go on disability qualify for Medicare, the government health care program that also covers the elderly. They also get disability payments from the government of about $13,000 a year. This isn't great. But if your alternative is a minimum wage job that will pay you at most $15,000 a year, and probably does not include health insurance, disability may be a better option.Going on disability means you will not work, you will not get a raise, you will not get whatever meaning people get from work. Going on disability means, assuming you rely only on those disability payments, you will be poor for the rest of your life. That's the deal. And it's a deal 14 million Americans have signed up for.Disability has become a de facto welfare program for people without a lot of education or job skills.
When you are an adult applying for disability you have to prove you cannot function in a "work-like setting." When you are a kid, a disability can be anything that prevents you from progressing in school. Jahleel's mom wants him to do well in school. But her livelihood depends on Jahleel struggling in school. This tension only increases as kids get older. One mother told me her teenage son wanted to work, but she didn't want him to get a job because if he did, the family would lose its disability check.Kids should be encouraged to go to school. Kids should want to do well in school. Parents should want their kids to do well in school. Kids should be confident their parents can provide for them regardless of how they do in school. Kids should become more and more independent as they grow older and hopefully be able to support themselves at around age 18.The disability program stands in opposition to every one of these aims.
A person on welfare costs a state money. That same resident on disability doesn't cost the state a cent, because the federal government covers the entire bill for people on disability. So states can save money by shifting people from welfare to disability. And the Public Consulting Group is glad to help.PCG is a private company that states pay to comb their welfare rolls and move as many people as possible onto disability. "What we're offering is to work to identify those folks who have the highest likelihood of meeting disability criteria," Pat Coakley, who runs PCG's Social Security Advocacy Management team, told me.The company has an office in eastern Washington state that's basically a call center, full of headsetted women in cubicles who make calls all day long to potentially disabled Americans, trying to help them discover and document their disabilities:"The high blood pressure, how long have you been taking medications for that?" one PCG employee asked over the phone the day I visited the company. "Can you think of anything else that's been bothering you and disabling you and preventing you from working?"The PCG agents help the potentially disabled fill out the Social Security disability application over the phone. And by help, I mean the agents actually do the filling out.There's a reason PCG goes to all this trouble. The company gets paid by the state every time it moves someone off of welfare and onto disability. In recent contract negotiations with Missouri, PCG asked for $2,300 per person. For Missouri, that's a deal -- every time someone goes on disability, it means Missouri no longer has to send them cash payments every month. For the nation as a whole, it means one more person added to the disability rolls.

- Foreign affairs April 14
Just like the classic game of Telephone, President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin have two very different takeaways from a Monday phone call.
According to TIME, the White House said that Obama expressed "grave concern" over Russia's presence in Ukraine, and "emphasized that all irregular forces in the country need to lay down their arms." He also urged Putin to use his influence with armed pro-Russian groups to request that they leave buildings they have captured.
Meanwhile, a press release from the Kremlin stated that reports of Russia interfering in southern Ukraine are "based on inaccurate information," and that ongoing protests in the eastern provinces are the result of "the Kiev authorities' unwillingness to take into account the interests of the Russian and Russian-speaking population."
Earlier Monday, leaders from Kiev asked that the United Nations send peacekeepers after pro-Russian protesters seized more government buildings. During Monday's phone call — the second between the U.S. and Russian presidents during the past few weeks — Obama reportedly commended the Ukrainian government for its management of the crisis and for holding an election scheduled for May 25.- - Catherine Garcia

Good service scares off bank robbers, FBI says

Seattle Times staff reporter
The state's biggest drop in bank robberies in nearly 20 years isn't being attributed to fancy new security technology, but to enthusiastic handshakes and smiles.
Nearly 100 fewer banks were robbed in the state last year compared with 2006, said the Seattle FBI, which credits its program designed to train bank employees to be nice to would-be robbers.
FBI Special Agent Larry Carr says the training program called "Safecatch" — developed 2 ½ years ago with First Mutual Bank and later launched among regional banks — teaches bank personnel to unnerve potential robbers with good customer service.
By focusing attention in the guise of good customer service on all who enter a bank, Carr says, bank employees can unnerve robbers, who generally try to remain as anonymous as possible when approaching a teller.
The program also trains bank tellers how to respond after a robbery has occurred. Because many bank robbers are repeat offenders, arresting one can prevent several robberies, he said.
Washington state's banking industry lost more than $700,000 in 176 robberies in the state in 2007, according to statistics released Friday by the FBI. It was the first time in 20 years that Washington, a longtime hotbed for bank robberies, had fewer than 200 bank robberies, according to the Seattle FBI.
"We implement this strategy, and numbers go to a 20-year low," Carr said. "Is it a coincidence?"
Bank of America, which started the program last year, had fewer than half the robberies in 2007 it had the year prior, Carr said.
Washington ranked 11th among the nation's total bank robberies in 2007, dropping from fourth in 2006. The state with the most robberies last year was California, with 801, Carr said.
Seattle recorded the most bank robberies in the state last year with 42, followed by Vancouver with 13 and Tacoma with 12.
The vast majority of bank robberies in Washington were carried out by men. The majority of bank robbers in this region are heroin users, and many are transient, Carr said. Two assaults occurred during 2007's bank robberies, and a weapon was displayed in 18 instances.
More than 20 banks participate in the Safecatch program, the FBI said.

Third-gen iPad unboxed: 1GHz processor, 1GB RAM
A purported third-generation iPad unit has been unboxed and subsequently benchmarked by Thailand-based Tinhte.vn. As shown in the unboxing photos (Translated Link), the third-gen iPad box will feature a metallic iCloud stamp on the bottom, with the normal capacity and wireless network markings on the back—in this case, 16GB and 4G—and multiple markings that show it to be model number A1430. Otherwise, the device's packaging appears to be quite similar to that of the iPad 2, including the same accessories inside the package. As for the benchmarks (Translated Link), the site found the third-gen iPad to deliver a Geekbench Score of 756, with a processor speed of 1 GHz—same as the iPad 2—but 1GB of RAM, or twice that of the prior unit. The unboxing video appears in embedded form below.

So we get 4X the fill rate for the screen but only 2X the RAM even though we're talking the price of a cheeseburger at McDs difference to have put double that RAM (or probably more with the volume Apple works in)? And the processor remains the same, yeesh.
See, said there was less than 50/50 based on past choices they'd get it right ;-).
The only upshot is that if app devs are forced to work with that sort of RAM constraint for retina class apps on the iPad 3, it is unlikely the iPad 2 will see the sort of nigh instantaneous obsolescence the iPad 1 did. In fact, there's a very good chance it will actually perform much better.

Desktone, Inc., the pioneer of Desktops as a Service (DaaS), today announced that the Desktone Platform is now available to service providers in the U.S. and Canada via the Ingram Micro Cloud Marketplace (www.ingrammicrocloud.com), a transactional, online marketplace where solution providers can shop, procure, provision and obtain invoices for their cloud services directly from Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE: IM). This announcement represents an expansion of Desktone's channel program, making its virtual desktop platform more accessible to a broad network of service providers, and meets service provider demand for innovative virtual desktop offerings that are cost-effective, easy-to-use and deploy.
The Desktone Platform is the industry's only virtual desktop solution built specifically for delivering desktops as a cloud service. Using the Desktone Platform, service providers and telecom companies can deliver DaaS at a much lower price point than traditional virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) technology. The platform provides true multi-tenancy while complying with Microsoft licensing. Under the terms of the agreement, Ingram Micro's cloud sales team will actively market, sell and support delivery of the Desktone Platform to its growing base of cloud-focused channel partners.
"Desktone has seen substantial interest from service providers as many realize how quickly and easily they can provision and manage virtual desktops for their end user customers from a central platform," said Peter McKay, CEO, Desktone. "Inclusion in the Ingram Micro Cloud Marketplace makes it easy to deliver robust DaaS solutions on top of existing cloud offerings while giving service providers the ability to deploy Windows desktops on any end user device without any of the hassles or costs typically associated with VDI."
"This alliance validates our approach to selling DaaS through service providers who use our platform as a foundation for their own proprietary desktop management services to further grow their own revenue," concludes McKay.
In the past six months, Desktone has significantly expanded its list of service provider partners. Most recently, NaviSite a leading provider of cloud solutions, partnered with Desktone to offer cloud-hosted virtual desktops. Desktone also powers Dell Desktop Virtualization Solutions (DVS) Simplified DaaS, full-featured virtual desktops delivered from Dell's state-of-the-art data center. Other notable service providers delivering DaaS through Desktone include Fujitsu, Netelligent and Quest.
"Ingram Micro has a proven track record for successfully enabling our channel partners to sell and support cloud-based services and solutions," said Renee Bergeron, vice president of Managed Services and Cloud Computing, Ingram Micro North America. "Interest and demand around full virtual desktop solutions is on the rise, which is why we're pleased to announce this new distribution relationship with Desktone and expand our cloud services portfolio to further enable MSPs interested in hosting and delivering desktop virtualization solutions to their end customers."
MSPs, solution providers and IT cloud integrators who are interested in becoming an Ingram Micro partner, please contact the Ingram Micro Services New Partner Team at (800) 456-8000, x76229.
