I am looking forward Interop Las Vegas next week at the Mandalay Bay convention center. Microsoft will have a large footprint in the expo hall and will also be featuring a keynote on Wednesday by Bob Muglia and a few other session speakers (including yours truly). All the Microsoft activity at the show can be followed on our interop LV page at http://www.interop.com/microsoft_ilv/, and here on this blog.

This event represents the culmination of a great year of interoperability activity and focus across Microsoft. But this is just the beginning. I am really excited about having the opportunity to meet thousands of IT Pros over the course of the week and learn more from them about the challenges that they are facing today. Our goal as an IT vendor is not only to provide strategic business value to our customers, but to make the lives of IT professionals easier in the process, allowing them to focus on higher and higher value activities. We will continue this mission, working tirelessly to solve interoperability problems so our customers don't have to.

Please stop by booth #1548 and say "hi".

See you in Vegas!
