The post you've been waiting for...

I'm very happy to announce that every attendee of our SMB Servers day at TechEd Australia 2008 will receive a free copy of the soon to be released Small Business Server 2008 Standard. Not kidding. Yours to take & use to make your first sale on the new platform.

You can register for TechEd + the SMB Servers pre-day, or just the pre-day by itself. You will need to select the session titled "Windows Essential Server Systems day Ticket - Tuesday 2nd September" - see pic below.

The agenda is set (still some minor tweaking based on the feedback I'm receiving), speakers locked in & prizes ordered for giveaway throughout the day. Those of you who I've spoken to about this day will know that we're looking at it as the major Community kick-off for both SBS & EBS in Australia. Thus I want to see as many partners there as possible & the free copy of SBS is designed to help you cover your costs - for the conference, the flights, accommodation & importantly, a day away from your customers.

I'm also announcing this on the blog first given that most readers are SBSCs, SBS User Group members or both & I want to ensure that you have a chance to get in before the masses. We will be putting up a website & driving awareness out to the wider partner community later this week & so sign-up now if you don't want to miss out.

Cheers & hope to see you there,

Robbie

PS - given the timing of SBS's RTM, we may not have the actual product to give to you on the day & so reserve the right to send it out as soon as it is available.
