I'm Rob Marshall, a consultant who specialises in the Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager product. I like to share, i do so by blogging and helping out when I can in the MS SMS newsgroups and participating in the ConfigMgr MVP program.
I was awarded and joined the program in 2009. It'd be an understatement to say it has to be one of the best experiences an IT engineer can have, if they really enjoy specialising in a product.
My biggest weapon for troubleshooting is, my formidable knowledge, no, only joking, you, the community. I find if I cannot answer a question, then I can usually find the answer from using Bing\Google, pouring over the documentation, and if that doesn't work, tinkering in mine or someone elses virtual lab.
The blogs pretty much about ConfigMgr, but it is also a platform for me to express my random urges to display something I've stumbled across, and that I imagine would entertain you or what not as equally as it did me.

Rather short notice, but I've lined up Shavlik to demonstrate their SCUPdates tool. This takes place today at 6:30PM GMT (15th of April 2010). We'll be recording this one, so plenty of opportunity to catch up with it post-session, as it will be hosted in the usual spot on myITforum's WebTV.
Check out the Shavlik SCUPdates tool here:

If you're at MMS 2010 this year, so are the Shavlik team, and they would love to see you. So, if this session generates any questions you cannot get answered in the Q&A, feel free to drop in and say hi.
