Guest theeldergeek Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 Sorry to say it's the first I've heard of it. Wouldn't mind going, but too short notice I fear.
GrumbleDook Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 Trying to sort out going on 29th, but doubtful. The smoothwall stand is safe from me raiding it again for Smoothies.
mb2k01 Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 I registered to attend last year but managed to break my foot! That put pay to my travel plans so didn't go. Be warned though, you will get a whole host of cold calls following your registration... unless I have been mega unlucky!
Guest theeldergeek Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 Trying to sort out going on 29th, but doubtful. I'd say, it's only on till the 28th...
GrumbleDook Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 I'd say, it's only on till the 28th... It usually runs for the same period as InfoSec and you can use your ticket to get between them. Obviously not this year ... I like going along to harrass some companies for not giving Edu discounts as they think "local government discount should do you fine" and "I know that you probably haven't heard of ITIL but our support desk solution will allow you to meet all your needs for it." (yes ... 2 quotes from suppliers last year). At least at InfoSec you get met with "You work with schools? They are too hard for us to work with ... just think, a few hundred people trying to break your network from the inside (shudder)" (and yes ... another quote ... this time from an IDS provider).
mjs_mjs Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Service Desk & IT Support Show 2011 - Welcome - anyone going this year?
GrumbleDook Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Should be there this year ... not sure which day as we have some service reviews on at the same time.
witch Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 I wish I could go as it looks really good - but the schools won't pay and I can't afford to go on my own
zag Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Yep I'll be going on the wednesday. Girlfriend is working there I think and she says they are sponsoring the bar! I also write a helpdesk piece of software so would be nice to get some ideas from the show.
X-13 Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 I wish I could go as it looks really good - but the schools won't pay and I can't afford to go on my own It's free... or are you on about travel costs? I'm trying to get the HT to let me go both days. That way I can do Service desk on one day and Infosec on the other.

That way I can do Service desk on one day and Infosec on the other. Yes - the train etc from the South Coast ain't cheap...unless anyone is driving up and would like to share the fuel?
X-13 Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Yes - the train etc from the South Coast ain't cheap...unless anyone is driving up and would like to share the fuel? Would if I could, m'dear... But I'd be on a train from the ghetto. [if I'm going.]
witch Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Would if I could, m'dear... But I'd be on a train from the ghetto. [if I'm going.] ....and you said you wanted to be one of 'Witch's' Men' !
X-13 Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 ....and you said you wanted to be one of 'Witch's' Men' ! I don't/can't drive. So the chances of getting a lift are slim at best. Unless you're open to the idea of a chav powered rickshaw.
witch Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 OK - I'll let you off! Anyone else going up from roughly this way?
zag Posted April 13, 2011 Posted April 13, 2011 Hey I'm going from Reading. I have a spare VIP ticket as well if anyone wants to join me.
