Ready Summit presentation

The Ready Summit tour wrapped up last week with our final event in Canberra (thankfully I didn't fall asleep during the UC session - find out why at the end of this post). Thousands of people attended and learnt about our latest technologies, and overall the tour was a huge success.

So why was I lucky to be awake? Catching the red-eye from Darwin to Sydney overnight, with a connecting flight to Canberra at 7:40am can do strange things to you. My flight was actually diverted to Canberra due to early-morning fog in Sydney, and Qantas were nice enough to let me off the plane and unload my luggage there, so it actually wasn't too terrible. However I do agree with Mitch Denny that it is possible to get jet-lag on a domestic flight.

Exchange 2007 training

jkruse — Sun, 26 Nov 2006 18:11:00 GMT

Only a few spaces are left in our exciting 2-day Exchange 2007 training course.

Topics to be covered include:

What’s new in Exchange Server 2007
What’s different
Installation & setup, management
Role-based configuration
Anti-spam & antivirus technologies
High-availability & redundancy, and client connectivity & mobility.

The two day session will provide a mix of presentations and hands on labs, with the focus being on giving the attendees the opportunity to use and experience this exciting new release.

We have had a massive response from customers following the Ready launch of Exchange 2007 in the past few weeks, and they are all asking about partners who are trained in Exchange 2007.

These courses sold out in October, and are close to selling out in November so register now and don’t be disappointed.

Melbourne: 27th - 28th November
Sydney: 30th November - 1st December
