Desktop Virtualization to Kick into High Gear 

In addition to tomorrow's Desktop Virtualization event, where you'll get some exciting news about the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack (MDOP), stay tuned for the next edition of TechNet ON for all the new resources to get you up to speed on new MDOP capabilities.

If you are not familiar with MDOP, check out TechNet Magazine this month, where Joshua Hoffman's Empower Your Business Systems with MDOP provides a walk-through of the MDOP suite of technologies available through the Microsoft Software Assurance plan.

Speaking of announcements, Windows Intune, Microsoft's cloud solution for PC management, will be available on March 23, 2011 for purchase or a free 30-day trial. For more on the 30-day trial, sign up for Windows Intune notifications. If you're still getting up to speed on your cloud strategy, senior IT pro evangelist Yung Chou provides primers on cloud services and Microsoft's cloud computing model in his new six-part series Cloud Computing for IT Pros.
