You are then presented with a discounted purchase list for the Product you chose and the relevant and CALs. Below is both SBS 2008 standard (from SBS 2003 standard) and EBS 2008 standard (from SBS 2003 standard):

Over the next month I will be part of the team that travels around the country visiting SBSC User groups with the aim of delivering training and readiness on WESS. More details can be found here..

Just to wet your appetites there will also be some prizes too which if you want more info you can check out here.

Myself and James Senior will be presenting on the business values of SBS and EBS 2008 and the opportunities for Microsoft partners. We'll give particular attention to how you can idenify sales opportunities within the current economic climate, using WESS to help address the needs of your customers at this critical time. Its going to be great fun, and living out of a suitcase for a few weeks plus getting to expand my UK geography knowledge. Hopefully see some of you there....
