So, I'm out and about today, at Microsoft's Get Virtual virtualization launch event in Bellevue. Just had lunch after a lackluster morning ra-ra event and a ho-hum presentation, following a cursory review of the obligatory yet limited vendor booths. I'll put up a more comprehensive review later on, but if you want to follow along through the day, I'm blogging as I go over on my own site. Given the limited network access here, even that is bound to be rather un-illuminating, however.

Lest you think this is just another Microsoft bashing post, however, let me say that most of what I am negative about today is more to do with the presentation than the subject. So far, I'm pretty impressed with the actual technologies that I've seen, and I think VMWare may have something to be scared of in some markets (which no doubt is the primary goal of this event, shrouded as it may so far be).
