Another MDSN Subscription for Drawing

Microsoft MVP Dan Freeman of P+W Software has generously donated another MSDN Premium Subscription, bringing the total number available to seven. Altogether there is over $91,000 worth of prizes for drawing, including software licenses from Red Gate Software, SourceGear, ApexSQL, xSQL Software, and the German FoxPro User Group.

Registrations heating up, so are prizes

My day started with some sweet news I wanted to share with everyone. Just in case you have not read the news on the Southwest Fox site, I wanted to let you know that Tightline Computers has donated three licenses for Microsoft's Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Suite and MSDN Premium Subscription (1-year), valued at US$11,000 EACH.

That means we have six licenses to give away! Imagine yourself returning to the office on October 20th with one of these licenses. How good would that feel?

Thanks to Andy Kramek and Marcia Akins for this fantastic contribution to the conference.

Not long after I read Marcia's email, six registrations dropped in the registration email box. Looks like it could be a very busy day.

Door Prizes: Special Announcement

The three organizers (Rick, Doug, and Tamar) from Geek Gatherings are each donating one copy of Microsoft's Visual Studio Team System 2008 Team Suite and MSDN Premium Subscription (1-year) as give-aways for Southwest Fox 2008. The subscription retails from Microsoft for US$10,939.

Three lucky attendees will walk away from the conference with all of Microsoft's top-of-the-line "everything package for developers", which includes all the Microsoft developer tools, server products, operating systems, Microsoft Office 2007, Microsoft Dynamics, SDKs and more.

You must be registered for the conference to be eligible to win, and present for the drawings. More details to be announced closer to the conference.

125 days until some lucky person has a lot more developer tools in their toolbox!
