Dell EqualLogic User Conference

This should be great for Dell EqualLogic users.  The first ever Dell EqualLogic User Conference!!  I'd say EqualLogic has come a long way, especially in just the past few years.  I recall the days and talks of trying to convince my boss to purchase EqualLogic storage.  The bullet points still stick - Price, Ease of Use, Performance and the number of features that EqualLogic gave away as opposed to some competitors.

I had absolutely no storage background so obviously for me, something I could easily understand and operate along with my other essential job duties was really important.

Since our initial installation, our storage has grown to provide housing for VMware, Microsoft SQL and Microsoft Exchange data. We have two boxes at our primary office with a 3rd at a remote site replicating volumes across a 50mb link.

Unfortunately, I won't be making it to the conference this time around - switching jobs and asking the current guys for $$ aint happenin.

Back to the coffee and the snow.  Cheers.
