What I'm more worried about is if they packed enough snacks to last until the end of the journey..

I have yet to find the consummate list of great things to do after hours at TechEd.. although a number of good blogs have hinted at certain events..

There's the ITHero fest for Technet subs/MCPs

Harry Pierson has mentioned the Architect Road Rally..


Anyone want to spill the beans on some activities which are already planned for TechEd?


As always there's the TechEd Bloggers site that has some good info so I'll keep checkin'

OT.. but why is Fedora so big? http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/1/i386/iso/

3CDs and it doesn't even play MP3s?

know nothing about the devices you mention, but was wondering what your take was on ISA 2000 (it could be gathered from your message that it's not stable or reliable) and if you've tried the beta of ISA 2004..

A farly good explination..

Darn.. your company must be seriously Anti-Fruit or something.. do you work for Meet-Is-Us or something? What's your company's stance against vegitables.. or kiwi fruit..

Please explain more the shortcomings of .Net enterprise abilities versus J2EE?

There's already a number of ways to have Java(TM) and .Net work together.. the easiest is through web services if you aren't concerned about object lifetime management and the like.. there's also a number of third party applications which blend .Net remoting and Corba and Borland's C# IDE has a number of features which accomplish this..

WinFS will indeed rest upon NTFS, read more about it:

And will definately be in Longhorn -- reports to the contrary (as those in businessweek) are greatly overestimated..

Doubt that WinFS has been in dev longer than Win2k as it's XML based which wasn't a standard until June '99 (although you're right, it could have been in development and they just switched to XML or used draft specs)

what do you propose? other than interoperability with less than 1% of the market (currently) what would a new, advanced FS bring to the table?
