Welcome to the Fencepost Software website and blog. Here you’ll find a variety of information relating to software development, IT consulting, computer support and other items related to our business. There’s a bit of coverage of computer hardware, accessories and tools, particularly in areas that we’ve found ourselves educating customers on or that we use in supporting customers.
