      Agreed!! Had a fantastic time and great to see you all - and to see some of the guys (and gals) behind the scenes at Smoothwall, Adobe, Dell, etc

      And, by popular demand here is the Star Trek text alert that was the unexpected hit!

      Great to be able to attend in a virtual sense, much improved system from last year and even the sound was even good once I found out I needed to be using a much more powerful machine. Thanks to those that set it up.

      Had a great day at the conference on Thurs and enjoyed listening to all the talks, chatting to everyone, and drinking too much coffee so when it was my turn to talk, I no doubt sounded like I was wired Thanks to all the organisers!

      Will the stream be formally archived at all? There are a number of good sessions which would be handy to show others.

      I think when i spoke to Shaun about that i think his reply was that it wasn't very good when he checked, or could not get it.. not 100% sure but i don't think they were any use.

    Unless I forget my password or get killed there won't be a need for anyway to ring Microsoft but I'm sure in that type of situation they would help out

    Office 365 with SSO in 2 weeks

    I admit, much of the time I spent on it was getting the SSO to work correctly. Doing as mentioned above would be much quicker! You can then fine-tune
