Virtualization administrator holiday wishlist
Posted by: Texiwill
Everyone has a holiday wish list. Some include the latest toys, gadgets, games, and other useful devices. But what do you get the virtualization administrator for the holidays? This rare individual has a need for gifts as well! Here are some useful suggestions:
- Any book or reference from the Virtualization bookshelf
- A subscription to any number of magazines or ezines references on the Virtualization bookshelf
- VMware Workstation or Fusion licenses (if they do not already have one) for virtualizing at home
- VMware merchandise (gift cards, apparel , golf balls, mugs, mouse pads, etc) from The VMware Store
For those who want to purchase hardware for their virtualization administrator:
- Any system on the VMware ESX Systems HCL
- Memory upgrades for servers, workstation, or laptop
- Fully loaded HP 8730w laptop (Great for running ESX within VMware Workstation)
- LiveScribe Smartpen — never miss a note/conversation again
- The iPhone, for oh-so-many reasons
Enjoy the holidays and I hope this helps you shop for your virtualization administrator!
