Scottish VMUG – September 23rd – Glasgow

August 18th, 2010

VMUG_1

So it’s that time again, another Scottish VMware User Group meeting is upon us.  This time there is a slight difference, I’m actually presenting which I have to say is not daunting in the slightest?!?!

I’ve been asked to present on my experience at VMworld 2010 in San Francisco, an event I am looking forward to immensely.  I’ll be aiming to tell you all about VMworld, it’s format, what I did there and why you should invest both the time and the money to attend future events.

If you are interested in registering for this VMUG meeting please register soon, I have it on good authority that 50% of the places were snapped up within 24 hours of the invite going out. Hopefully I’ll see you there.

Scottish VMware User Group – January 2010

January 6th, 2010

I’ve just had an email through this morning for the upcoming Scottish VMware User Group.  The next event is due to take place in Glasgow on the afternoon of Thursday the 21st of January.

Interest certainly appears to be picking up, with over 200 registered Scottish VMUG users already. Though there is a long way to go before we reach the dizzy heights set by the Dutch VMUG which has over 3000 members of which 600 attended the most recent VMUG meeting.
