Epic’s Extreme Technology Makeover

Hi folks, as you know in this economic downturn, it’s hard to think about upgrading your network. Even if you are the network admin and you know of all the issues, it can be hard to get the executive to approve your IT roadmap when times are tough.

In light of that, Epic thought it would be a good time to hold an Extreme Technology Makeover contest. The contest rules are on the web site, but the gist of it is that you submit your “case” as to why you think your company needs an Extreme Technology Makeover and then Epic will choose the winner. The value is for a $50,000 solution.

You can apply to the contest here. Good luck!

Epic Technology Day!

Hi folks, as you may know I work in the IT consulting field. One of my most favourite times of year is when Epic Technology day comes around. It’s held twice a year here in Winnipeg and is considered one of HP’s largest partner held events in North America.  It is completely free to attend this event. This time it’s on October 21st, 2008. At technology day we talk about all sorts of different kind of technology and how it can help you in your daily lives. This is the kind of technology that I use in my everyday business to help out my customers.

I’ll be presenting at Epic Technology Day on virtualization so if you are interested in coming to see me or even any of the other presenters, come on down!

Some of the presenters are HP, VMWare, Intel, Citrix, Novell, Red Hat, and Data Domain. There is pretty much something to be had for everyone. This isn’t your normal boring vendor conference where you come to visit a bunch of booths and get a lot of free stuff. I’ve been told countless times by visitors to the event that people come to this and genuinely come out with more knowledge having learned of new and interesting ways to do things in IT. If you can make it, make sure you come down.
