Louis Rosas-Guyon’s Summary

I believe we should work smarter, not harder. Isn't that what technology is for?

Chances are you aren't getting the most out of your computers. Did you know most computers are idle 80% of the time?

I can get your computers working as hard as you do. Don't spend more money on more equipment; get what you already own working harder.
