After a great week in Bellevue and Redmond I arrived Sunday afternoon in Switzerland. This was my first Microsoft MVP Global Summit and it was great to be part of this. I cannot really talk about the content because of the NDA but besides the sessions it was great to meet a lot of Microsoft employees and of course other Microsoft MVPs.
Microsoft did a great job and especially the Hyper-V and System Center group.
If you ever have the chance to visit the MVP Summit you should definitely take the chance and visit Redmond. And if you should get hungry und you like steak I can recommend Daniel’s Broiler Steak house.
This happens if you build your datacenter based on the Microsoft Surface Pro. I just saw a tweets from Jeff Woolsey and Ben Armstrong about how you install Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V on the Surface Pro and are running some Live Migrations of virtual machines.
Checkout the blog post or the short video:
Only a few days left until I catch my flight with Marcel Zehner (MVP System Center Datacenter & Cloud Management) to Redmond for the Microsoft MVP Global Summit 2013. Microsoft invites all MVPs worldwide (approx 4000) for a great week of learning, sharing and networking on the Microsoft Campus. For this week I had to pack some stuff for the flight and the days we will spend and work there.
Btw. I really can’t wait to pick up a Microsoft Surface Pro in one of the Microsoft Stores in Seattle or Bellevue.
2012: A Year of Microsoft Milestones
Paolo Bonzini found something funny in the Linux kernel support code for Microsoft’s Hyper-V. There is a constant in the Linux integration drivers which gets passed through to the hypervisor and it called “0xB16B00B5″ if you are common with the leetspeak you can read the words “BIG BOOBS”.
Now I always knew that there was another advantage of Hyper-V over VMware
Microsoft not only announced the release date of Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 at WPC 2012 they had also an “one more thing”. Steve Ballmer announces the acquisition of Perceptive Pixel at WPC 2012 as Jefferson Han takes the stage. If someone has so money left, he could by me one of these for Christmas.
