Happy Monday -- I'm catching a plane out to the Altiris ManageFusion conference in Vegas.

This should be a good show -slash- gathering for Symantec's Altiris community. I'll be working the floor with an eye toward virtualization news and chatting up Altiris customers to see how folks are working "Lifecycle Management" in their P and V worlds.

I have a pretty full vendor and customer interview schedule lined up for the show, but I'm always interested to hear real-world stories of joy and woe. Drop a note to jhernick@nwc.com if you happen to be in Vegas this week and would like to get together to chat about VM'ing ...
