The VMguy

So the first day of keynotes at Partner Exchange is finishing up now.  Rick Jackson, Chief Marketing Officer at VMware, Tod Nielson Chief Operating Officer at VMware and Boyd Davis, General Manager Server Platforms Group Marketing at Intel all spoke.  Some very good information to kick off the event.  Rick really got everything going, Tod delivered the vSphere story and the overall direction of VMware and Boyd really talked details on the new Xeon 5500′s and all of the virtualization advantages in them.  Here’s a quick pic of Tod (on left) and Boyd on stage(sorry, I’ll try to sit closer tomorrow):
