As a valued customer of Sun Microsystems and Technologent, we are pleased to invite you to participate in a unique Sun Executive Briefing experience on Thursday, September 18 in Missoula, MT.

We would like to gain more insight into the challenges facing your business and provide a collaborative exchange between you and Sun at the executive level. This EBC "On-the-Road" Summit has been created for you to spend quality face time with Sun executives and subject matter experts in your own backyard:

* Exchange ideas, issues and solutions for driving standards in your datacenter

* Understand how Sun's modular design architecture across our product portfolio benefits you

* Discuss your IT challenges — compliance mandates, maximizing return on IT assets, managing the lack of energy and space in your datacenter, etc. — with Sun experts who can help

1-Sun is announcing Gold Service in Western Montana. That's access to 24x7 support!

2-AMD will be at both locations and available for 1:1 time.

3-SAP will be at both locations and available for 1:1 time.

4-VM Ware will be at both locations and available for 1:1 time.

So let folks know if they want face time with any 4 of these vendors. They can get direct face time with SUN, AMD, VM Ware and AMD if they like. That's pretty rare and darn cool.
