No longer. Here on one page are all the publicly available fixes ready …

I thought an updated review was in order! In case you’re not familiar with these devices, they connect to your PC via …

CU3 for Skype for Business is in some regards a doozie! Microsoft has finally relented (much, I’m sure to the chagrin of various software vendors) and baked “Busy on Busy” into the product. “What’s that” you ask? Read on & follow the links, or wait for my next post on the subject. This update takes …
