(I know it's a bit late, but I just now found some time to put this together. Thanks to Tom Geiger for the excellent photos.)

The Raleigh best-of-launch event for SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 on November 8th was a smashing success!

Although we had lots of people and the lines were long, everyone checked in efficiently.

We even started a waitlist...but in the end no one was turned away. We accomodated over 400 people!
