Sorry it's been a bit quiet...

The lack of posts recently is down to my laptop being in the repair shop.....

No fault of mine just general wear and tear. As soon as I get it back then I'll have some stuff on SQL Server 2008, more MDM bits and some interesting things I've been up to with SharePoint 2007, not forgetting the things that i've been listening to. There's quite a lot of those as we enter festival season and yes I will be making the traditional trip to the V Festival in Chemlsford if anything just to see McFly...! (If you know me you know the truth).

Just when I was about to carry on talking about MDM...

...Microsoft go and announce this.

Looks good for an end to end Microsoft architecture but it will be interesting to see what happens when it's working outside of its comfort zone.....
