Thanks for the post Harold! I didn't have a chance to make it down to Irvine yesterday, but I was very interested in the Private Cloud slides- I really appreciate you posting them. On an unrelated note, do you happen to know if there is going to be another Technet subscription discount offer anytime soon? My company recently decided not to renew their EA, so I'm considering buying Technet Professional for myself- and I know I'd feel like a heel if there was another discount offer in a few weeks.Anonymous

Hey Harold....just wanted to let you know I did NOT receive the prize from that days event although I was contacted by an individual tasked with shipping it to me. Cool Blog about the MSFT Retail Store visit...sounds similar to the Apple Genius Bar...and I need to make myself one of those Xbox skins! Lol! Ok have a good day and thanks again for delivering a solid informative session.
