We're liking it here, aside from it's little, erm, annoyances* - SCCM and a little bit of the old SneakerNet™ to spread it round our offices
* out of the box: you can't book rooms with Exchange 2003. Once a room has been…

Andrew Rogers replied to Elizabeth Ayer's discussion 'Exchange 2010 -- voice your opinions'
We had problems with 2010 beta too - it wouldn't play with other existing version of Exchange (nothing for 2003 and needed a service pack for 2007 which wasn't out yet, IIRC). The final version sits okay with 2003 in our brief testing so…

Andrew Rogers replied to Graycat's discussion 'Deploying Desktops'
We're starting to use SCCM - previously relying on ghost images per model, the number of which has recently ballooned!

Same here, it's a bit far out to know what will be happening that day! I hope it'll be recorded and available for later viewing though?

Andrew Rogers replied to Matt Simmons's discussion 'Guide to Compaq Servers?'
If you're sticking with HP for a bit, you might want to find a reputable distributor. They'll have access to the HP SalesBuilder tool (something you can get if you run a couple of online tests to become a HP partner I believe) which lets…

Andrew Rogers replied to Matt Simmons's discussion 'Unpopular subject: IPv6'
I'd agree with your comments - it's going to be another of those sleeper problems where the first someone hears of it is when someone goes out the office on 3G or something, tries to VPN back in and can't..
