Prepping for my CFO/CEO VMware event

So I'm prepping for this VMware event I'm presenting in December. I'm pretty stoked about it, but a bit nervous at the same time. Give me a room full of engineers and I'll wax techy for hours without a nervous sweat or stutter. Now, place me in a room full of executives, which I've fostered emotions for in a special "place" in my heart, and I'm out of my comfort zone. To make matters even more foreign, I'll be replacing my comfortable khakis and polo for my suit and tie... ick. But I'm exciting about the opportunity to branch out my skills. I used to be a pretty good orator... 4th in state for speech and debate and all that.

SO, for the next few blogs you're going to be treated to a host of FUN topics like Return on Investment, Total Cost of Ownership, and other insanely cliche topics. Just so you know, I'll be cringing just as much as you at the industry buzz words... but I suppose most of you wouldn't be thrilled about how VMware optimizes page files in the memory, or how you can integrate multiple wireless access points with WDS and RADIUS. To each their own then.
