One note, the NetIQ party seems to quite exclusive. In past years, they have done quite large parties (San Diego, Jessica Simpson concert at the San Diego Zoo). When going to the NetIQ booth last night, there was an instant crowd around the booth to try and get tickets (not sure if it was because they all got E-mails or because of my blog). My apologies though, it appears that they only had 30 tickets available. So, no, I don't even get to go.

I say we all boycott NetIQ, uninstall it from all our servers, cancel all maintenance contracts, and go out and buy their competition. Oh wait, not going to their party because we couldn't get a ticket isn't reason enough to behave like this. Bad, IT pro (smacks own hand). Keep using their great tools and if you aren't check them out and see if they can't help you and your organization.

If any NetIQ person reads this and wants to be nice to me, I need 3 tickets (for the 3 of us from my company I am here with - after all, one of them was the one who got the E-mail from you to come to the party in the first place). OK, the sucking up is now over.
