Rantings of an IT Pirate

As a pirate is passionate about the open sea, such is my passion about technology. I am the first "ethical" IT Pirate.

Windows 7 Deployment Deep Dive – Take 2 was a success!

Last night, we put on a second instance of the Energize IT Windows 7 Deployment Deep Dive.

We called it:  Windows 7 Deployment Deep Dive – Take 2.

Pierre Roman had a stellar performance!  Thanks Pierre!

We also hosted a 30 minute demo from Ottawa Local company Rove IT with their remote administration solution using Smart Phone technology.

This was a great showing by Jennifer Steinberg and Jason Gallagher of Rove IT.  I linked their website below:

http://www.roveit.com/

We may see more from the Rove IT folks in the near future as they seemed very interested in becoming more involved with our community. :)

Here is a point of note:

Typically, when we host events we take the registration number (those who RSVP to the event) and allow for anywhere from 25 – 40% drop off rate since not everyone who registers actually attends.

We use this number to decide on the quantity of food to order.

Last night, we had 100% attendance!

Regretfully, we ran out of food.  I am however hoping that this showing is a reflection of the work we have been doing and will continue.

Strictly speaking, we will make adjustments based on experience but this was a terrific turnout!

PS:  As a reminder to our attendees, if there were elements of yesterday’s presentation which you feel you would like more info on.  Please E-mail me at: brad@bradbird.ca.
