Spent the day at the Microsoft 2003 server launch. Some interesting stuff. definitely pro microsoft. one annoying thing, they kept saying this is a new feature of 2003. My return thought was do I have to have a complete 2003 enterprise installed before I can use that feature? One thing that is bugging me is that large corporations are buying up interesting companies and making their products a cisco only or a symantic only solution. I am seeing that with microsoft as well. I saw some cool ideas but I think the only way to get it to work is to only use only microsoft’s products, when dealing with security it has to work across with our networking infrastructure as well.
I am now hanging out at the daily grind close to Court House in VA. No point in returning back to baltimore for a couple hours
