We Launched MOM and Virtual Server today in New York City at Microsoft’s new spacious Rockefeller Center office with about two hundred in attendance. The event was very well run; the young woman at the check-in desk knew my name even though we hadn’t met in over a year! There were two great presentations by Craig Lieboff and Donnie Hamliett on Virtual Server.
I was recalling the first presentation Donnie gave on MOM about two years ago at Microsoft’s west side office. During his talk there was this deep “awooga” sound that kept him spinning around like a teacher looking to see who was the trouble maker in the class calling out “awooga”. He didn’t say anything but he kept eyeing a few of us to see who was messing with his mind. When we broke for lunch I had a look out the window with a view of the Hudson River and New Jersey and there at the pier at 46th street was an ocean liner setting sail for some exotic clime, “awooga”!
