VMworld 2009: Hey VMware / Moscone WTF?!? My Rant

First off, I want to say that this is my first time in San Fransisco. It seems to be a great city, but I don’t have time to do any site-seeing.

VMworld 2009 – Blogging, Tweets and the “Ask a vExpert” Booth

August 29th, 2009 Dave Convery No comments

Well, VMworld 2009 is almost upon us! I have an ungodly schedule for next week. I start the S&M with a nice refreshing VCDX Design Defense bright and early Monday morning at the VMware San Fransisco office. Then, its off to the SF Mariott for a relaxing sit by the VCP 4.0 Exam engine. Of course, I’ll round that off with a healthy dose of VMware View in the Advanced Configuration Lab.

Most will be techie notes from the breakout sessions, but if I hear anything that I deem noteworthy from any of the keynotes or from the floor, I will be sure to post that as well. I have loaded heavily on the VMware View sessions this year to try to force feed myself on the Desktop Virtualization part of the Cloud. I have always resisted this part of it because it brings back those lovely times where I lived in the times of hearing the whiners saying: “I can’t print!” or “I forgot my password!”. Anyway, resistance IS futile and I WILL be assimilated. If you’re looking to meet up, I posted a shared Google Calendar along with a screen shot of my VMworld Schedule below.
