I love the IT Grand Prix, the teams are just fantastic and I can't wait to meet them at TechEd!
Meanwhile, we're making our way to TechEd on The Bus. We're talking about Windows 7, Office 2010, MDOP and Training and Certification. Yesterday, in New York, one of our attendees shared a fantastic story with us. Working in a retail store, he decided to invest in an MCTS credential and two weeks ago he passed the exam. He received a 20% salary increase and I really look forward to hearing about his next steps in certification. Today, in Philadelphia, I met John who attended our first bus tour. John told me that since that day he took and passed 7 exams.
These are challenging times for many of us, still the current wave of products is very promising. Windows 7 for instance is our fastest selling Operating System ever. That's an opportunity for many of us in IT and for many companies that use IT or that offer IT services. It's a great time to update your skills.
