Establishing a baseline for the computing environment enables your organization to develop a standard configuration for deployment, simplifying operation and helping to lower the operating costs. The Business Desktop Deployment (BDD) Workbench is a fundamental component of the Microsoft Solution Accelerator for Business Desktop Deployment that enables you to create a repeatable, automated reference computer image that you can use for deployment. This webcast examines the components of the BDD Workbench from the user interface to the underlying directory structure and supporting scripts, and shows you how to extend the BDD Workbench to fit the needs of your organization.

“The only difference is MS is quite transparent to community through blogs, channel 9, msdn events and communities.”

Translation: MS’ marketing team works harder than their developer / management team?

P.S.: See the “website” field in the comments form? That’s where any links to your blog-spam go. Not in the message itself.

True that Apple also misses the shipping dates.

The only difference is MS is quite transparent to community through blogs, channel 9, msdn events and communities. So every tom dick and harry hears bout beta releases, shipping dates, scrapped features etc. etc.

Apple talks ’bout a product once it is released. So no one gets to know what actually went behind it.

In no way, we wud want MS to turn that way… I enjoyed the whidbey days and learning winFX while still in beta.

Or how about c) none of the above?

“Allow me to buy (or download) beta copies earlier. That way I don’t have to wait for the final version.”

Don’t worry. The final version will be beta quality.

The local time in India is called “Indian Standard Time”, but for some weird reason xp thinks that it is “India Standard Time”. Can you do something?

Question. When Vista slips into a mid 2007 / 2008 timeframe, do all the suckers who signed up for “Software Assurance” get their money back?

Curt: that’s an awesome idea!
