About Windows Live Admin Center
Whether you maintain a website or just own a domain name (A unique Internet address, such as wingtiptoys.com. It is your personal or business address on the Internet.) , you can use Windows Live Admin Center to create personalized e-mail addresses for your domain name.
Shout to Jim Dempsey for passing this info on to me a while ago ... yes, I sat on it a bit, and literally just stumbled upon it again while clearing out my mailbox ;-)

One of the horde (employee) where i work, Arthur Chan, is really in to his Club motorsport. And tonight he sent me a few links to videos he took at a recent event (12th July 2009) hosted by the Farnborough District Motor Club.
Looks like they had a really fun day, some great driving :>

Arthurs friend Ian http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCDMopDa_MA and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQVLlBc0olY
Here's a forum thread of other folks videos from that day, and more of arthurs once he sorts them out.

I had Package preload failure on a 64-bit Windows 2008 Secondary site server the other day. The preloader would generate an exception and not function.
The long and the short of it was that we had the Preloader executable from the SMS2003 Toolkit still, and not the latest one. Once corrected the preloader functioned and did it's work.
You can down the ConfigMgr 2007 Preloader version here (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=c36fcda8-9336-4d44-9568-5530ff7635dd&DisplayLang=en)
Old version: 1.0.3025.1000 (byte size 589,824)
New version: 1.0.3025.1100 (byte size 668,696)
Like us no doubt you will have toolkits on various network resources, and if like us you are a pure ConfigMgr environment then now may be a good time to purge the SMS2003 toolkit tools binaries and replace them with the ConfigMgr 2007 ones.
Wally Mead deserves a shout here for getting in touch with the developers to figure this out one for me. So obvious once the solution is staring you in the face

We're very close to Windows 7, can you sense the disturbance in the force yet?

John Nelson (MVP ConfigMgr) has turned out a really cool SQL query, which converts a byte value in to a given unit of measure such as MB or GB. This is useful if you want to express a byte value in GB form for example.
If you write SQL queries for your ConfigMgr reports, this is one useful function to have.
Check it out here: http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jnelson/archive/2009/07/06/139462.aspx
Another query from John that I used recently was to convert Bytes in to a human readable form (whatever the byte value represents, MB, GB etc), this one is dynamic and turns out KB, MB or GB values so you don't get to choose the resulting unit of measure.
