EMC World Day 0 In Review

This morning is Day 1 of EMC World, so it's a perfect time to review yesterday. Day 0 is all about getting to the show, and getting checked in.  And of course the party. The food was pretty good, as was the beer.  The band sounded ok, but the sound guy wasn't all that great. I'll be...
