| Source: PCS Edventures!.com, Inc.
BOISE, ID -- (MARKET WIRE) -- November 9, 2006 -- PCS LabMentors, Ltd., a division of PCS
Edventures! (OTCBB : PCSV ), today announced a significant upgrade of its
infrastructure including hardware, software and data center services. The
upgrade was implemented on November 1, 2006 to the new infrastructure and
was successfully completed without any major issues.
The new infrastructure was required due to PCS LabMentors' web-based lab
product's increasing demand. "We are probably going to significantly
increase our revenue this year and adding the additional capacity and
further planned improvements will enable us to scale on demand while
maintaining the same quality of service for our valued customers," said
Joseph Khoury, President of PCS LabMentors. He added, "The rollout of our
new infrastructure went off without a hitch because we have a very skilled
technical team spearheading the implementation, and we have partnered with
an equally talented organization in RKON technologies to get the job done
right." He went on to say, "Anytime you undertake to commit to wholesale
migration of infrastructure as we have, while remaining in business and
without any major issues, you have to look at your team and realize what a
tremendous job they have performed."
PCS LabMentors has been working with RKON since July 2006 and is currently
planning more changes and upgrades on all levels. John R. McCreary, VP
Strategic Accounts and Managed Services for RKON, said, "We are very
excited to be working with PCS LabMentors. They have a couple crucial
elements required in business: A very robust and effective product and
knowledgeable, personable staff to support it. We have found their people
great to work with."
