My VMWorld 2010 Photos
I finally got all the photos from VMWorld 2010 off of my camera and phone and uploaded to Google Picasa. Enjoy some pics from the various parties, the Keynotes, a Giant’s game, and a trolley ride to Pier 39!

VMWorld 2010, vPower, Rap Videos, and Milli Vanilli
VMWorld 2010 has come and gone. I’m definitely still recovering and trying to catch up on a lot of stuff I missed while working the Veeam booth. One of the first things I wanted to see that I heard so much about was the “vSpecialist Delight” video. This is definitely an awesome production from the team at EMC. Check it out, but please keep reading for the Veeam vPower video afterwards …
Mad props guys! BUT, I have a few observations I want to point out.
From what I can tell, although Fred and Nick wrote the lyrics, it appears that the vSpecialists are lip syncing to still yet to be signed Blaze1 actually rapping (Updated 9/5/10) Blaze1, a relative of the studio owner in Atlanta where the song was recorded, is the rapper in the song.
Here’s a screen shot from the credits at the end of the video.

Am I jealous? Sure. However, what really inspired me to write this post was when I read the lyrics available from Nick’s blog post. This rhyme especially got my attention:
Now I ain’t trying to start a backup race
Data Domain and Avamar will win that race
Fred, Thanks for the ride from the SFO airport, but “Holy 2Pac and Biggie Batman!”
That brings me to the “I Got vPower” song and video the Veeam Teeam made for VMWorld 2010. Like the guys in the bowling shirts
