Where is David?

Hi everyone

You might have noticed that the posts have slowed down over the last few days.  Well there is a reason ... and it is not that I have run out of ideas.

I have lots of topics to discuss, including more Report Writer articles that Mark Polino loves.

The reason is that I am travelling. I am currently in Seattle, WA, USA for an internal global support engineering summit.

After a 30 hour transit from Perth (via Sydney and San Francisco) I finally arrived in Seattle. After a sleep in, I had a chance to do a little bit of shopping (well the Aussie dollar is strong against the US dollar at the moment). 

What was really cool is that the Bellevue Square shopping centre has a "Microsoft Store".  This was the first time I have seen a Microsoft Store and it was great to see all of the cool technologies from Microsoft and its partners being showcased.

Windows Phone 7, Xbox with Kinect, Microsoft Surface, Windows PCs in multiple form factors (Desktop, Laptop, Slate, All-in-One), accessories and software were all on display with helpful friendly staff to answer any questions you might have.

Check out the screens that wrap around the entire store.

I will post some more technical articles soon.
