WOW, seems NYC still puts on the best show, even when MS is producing it! I attended the Philly launch, held at the Hilton, and it was very tame compared to yours, (Linda, were you there?) We only had 5-6 MS Partners, consisting of some schools, couple of developers and HP and Compaq if I remember well. Lots of food! We got t-shirts, voucher for Office 2003 and a 120 day eval package. Things started at 9am and finished about 5pm. ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe" (without the quotes) in the subject line.
