I have never heard of these guys but now I know them not by their product(s)/quality of service but by the fact that they …
Fine post, Mr. Haynes. Am I wrong, December 23, 2009 by Dave HaynesFine post, Mr. Haynes. Am I wrong, or are these the same folks who issued a press release in April titled “Madonna Makes an Appearance on Noventri Digital Menu Boards at Minute Maid Park”?

I wonder when some Winnipeg business own December 21, 2009 by Dave HaynesI wonder when some Winnipeg business owners will wake up and realize the difference between “purchases” and “investments”.
