Vijay,

Thanks for the feedback. We obviously need to continue to plug holes in the presentation. Having said that, people were previously unhappy with the basic product information, so to have moved the problem to the licensing questions is some progress. I will contact Louise, find out the questions and post answers asap.

thanks

David

I was at the EVO event at Reading on 16th Nov and there were still some "issues" mainly quite a few questions on the product versions of both Vista/Office 2007 and Licensing which could not be answered by the presenters. There were no Microsoft "experts" in this area to help Louise (who was presenting part of this) despite her pleas for help! She was left saying that the relevant answers would be posted up to the Blogs (not sure which ones or when?). I sopke to a couple of other SBSC Partners and their reaction was not great! Obviously, this is not a scientific poll but I think MS missed an opportunity to talk more the potential opportunity/strategy for partners.
