Two Events … One Goal
Virtualization has changed the way we think and do things. It saves us time, space and most importantly money.
If you’ve been waiting to learn about virtualization and what it can do for you here’s a perfect opportunity, two of them actually.
And did I mention they’re free?
Get Virtual Now — Microsoft Virtualization Launch
The first event is coming soon, as soon as next week actually! Microsoft is hosting the free virtualization launch in eleven cities in the U.S.
The first event is in Anaheim, California on Friday, October 10th and the last event will be held in Atlanta, Georgia on November 17th.
The Chicago event, which I will be attending, is on October 27th — so let me know if you’re going and maybe we can meet and learn about virtualization together.
The best thing — all registered attendees will get a free virtualization readiness kit which includes: product, training materials, product evaluations and learning opportunities.
Those of us in attendance will also get to choose from three seminar sessions, hands-on labs, expo booths — and a free lunch!
If you’re ready to learn about virtualization — and get some free stuff — don’t miss this opportunity. Here’s where you can get more information and register for this free Microsoft Virtualization event.
VMware Virtualization Forum 2008
VMware Virtualization Forum 2008 is only coming to two U.S. cities this year — Boston and San Diego — and both of the events will be held in December. For more information and to register for one of these events go here.
I was a bit disappointed when I saw that both coasts are covered, and us mid-westerners are out of luck. But then I found out that VMware did think about the rest of us!
So for anyone who can’t make the trip to Boston or San Diego you can still enjoy the benefits on this event online.
The online Virtualization Forum will happen on December 16th, at 8am PST.
And, as the VMware site points out, you will still have the opportunity to:
- Network with VMware experts, customers, partners and other IT Professionals
- Attend 30-minute presentations and get the latest info on VMware solutions, products and industry trends
- Access real-time information from industry leaders without the hassle or expense of travel
- Create a multi-media resource kit, including white papers, videos and podcasts
Here’s where you can register for the free online VMware Virtualization Forum.
Don’t forget, both of these events are FREE — so take advantage and learn about virtualization and what it can do for you!
Ok originally I wasn’t going to go, but since Kasia is going, I can gossip with her during the session breaks, so now I am definitely in!
You local Chicago people should come on out too!
Alright .. all signed up and ready to go. I guess we will take the train together, huh, Kasia? I will even pay for your ticket!
See you guys out there!!!
I attended the Dallas VMware Virtualization Forum and it was very good – lots of free stuff (the swag), great presentations, and many vendors. I highly recommend it!
Also, for all TST readers, I wanted to let you know that I completed my updated VMware ESX/ESXi Server video training course. The new course covers ESX 3.5, ESXi, Storage VMotion (SVMotion), running ESX inside Workstation, and much more. Train Signal is now shipping the course but it has not yet been promoted on the website. I hope you will check it out and recommend it to anyone you see at the virtualization forums!
Thanks,

Hey, if the VMWare video’s have been upgraded, what about people who have the older video’s? Will they get a discount or anything?
VMWare had a forum in Toronto over the summer. Great stuff.
Hi Dennis,
I’ll email you directly about this. We’re dealing with this case by case.
