Technical Learning Center  Reviews
Technical Learning Center (TLC) logo
"Ability of the instructor (Rebecca) to provide real-world experiences: An example of this is when we were covering workflow creation in Visual Studio. I had trouble really understanding the difference between sequential and state machine workflows. She provided very good examples. It was wonderful to be able to ask nearly any (barely) related question and have very intelligent and concise answers."

Quick Tip
Outlook 2007 Distribution Lists
When addressing an email message to a distribution list, don't expand the distribution list by clicking the plus sign.
 
Expanding the distribution list makes it harder for others to read. More importantly, it may also cause your email to be delivered to the wrong folder if a recipient has created rules for organizing their email.

Virtual Desktop - Is it real?
Free Seminar - Thursday, September 9, 2010
In this session, we will define terms, describe real-world scenarios that desktop virtualization can and can't address, and separate vendor hype from reality. We will be discussing and comparing the strengths and weaknesses of VDI, Terminal Services, and Citrix, and how each of them addresses striking a balance between IT control and user happiness.
