So it’s just business. I’m down here in Dallas, TX, on business. Got here Sunday late afternoon. Leaving for home Friday morning. That’s right, back here in the Lone Star State. I was in Houston in late December for work and now I’m in Dallas… what’s next you ask? San Antonio? Austin? El Paso? Well, I don’t think so, but who really knows?
I’m down here working at our National Sales Meeting. It’s one of the few times we get all of the field sales force’s laptops in one place at the same time. It leads to long hours and lots of work for us in IT, but it is worth it to update all the laptops. Our field sales laptops are now all on Windows XP Service Pack 2, MS Office 2003 Service Pack 2, the latest versions of the Zone Labs Integrity Agent firewall, the Cisco VPN client, the Symantec Antivirus client and virus defs, and our current version of the LANDesk client. It will make our support efforts easier as there are fewer versions of these items to support.
On a side note we did manage to make it to a Dallas Mavericks game last night. Things just worked out with the laptops so we were far enough ahead to be able to take last night “off” to watch the game. That makes three NBA games I’ve attended this season in three different arenas! Yeah, boy!
