The Dutch VMUG conference which took place at the Nieuwegein Business Center today turned out to be a great success. On the 12th of December over 600 enthusiastic VMUG members have enjoyed a day full of virtualization, with lots of sessions and workshops. I really enjoyed presenting the PowerShell session and I’m glad all the demo’s worked. Just uploaded the first pictures to a newly created flickr group at http://www.flickr.com/groups/dutchvmug2008/

Dutch VMUG 2008 | First picture’s online
Eric Sloof presented “Managing VI3 with PowerShell” at Dutch VMUG
This morning I presented my “Managing VI3 with PowerShell” session for an audience of 300 people at the Dutch VMUG event in Nieuwegein. The total number of attendees is over 600!!! This presentation focuses on the tools that are currently available for PowerShell. It also gives you an insight on the VMware PowerShell extensions and presents a short introduction to PowerShell as a scripting language. You’ll get an insight look at PowerShell integration in the viClient and a lot of other tools like AdminScriptEditor, PrimalForms, PowerGUI, PowerShellPlus, PowerScripter and PowerGadgets.
Dutch VMUG Event 2008 | About to kick-off
I’m ready for it. Today the Dutch VMUG event will take place at the Nieuwegein Business Centre. In a short time over 600 attendees will pick up their badge and are going to enjoy several sessions divided into three parallel tracks. Like always I’ll capture some video footage here and there and at Saturday the 13e (my birthday) most of it will be online at Vimeo. At 11:30 I’ll deliver my “Managing VI3 with PowerShell” presentation, by 12:30 the presentation will appear online.
The voice over in "Dutch VMUG Video Trailer" is done by the famous Dutch disk jockey Jeroen van Inkel who recorded this jingle for my radio show “The Twilight Zone" which was broadcasted for over 10 years on a few local radio stations in the Netherlands.

Richard Garsthagen should win Dutch VMUG sticker action
When you sign-up as an attendee for the Dutch VMUG event on the 12th of December you will receive an envelope which contains a VMware sticker. When you place this sticker at the most original place you are eligible to win a Nintendo Wii. At a Tech·Ed EMEA TV Interview VMWare's Richard Garsthagen discusses their Hypervisor and their accessibility offer – which includes the software sitting on top of the product. Hear how this is an important aspect which allows you to work with the tools once set up.
At the end of the interview Richard places his VMware sticker at the back of a Microsoft guy ;-) You can also take a peek at the photo’s from the other contesters, but Richard Garsthagen should defenately win the Dutch VMUG sticker action.
