The WCF 4 revision continues...
Another 50 pages waded through by 7.30am this morning (daughter up lots in the night coughing!), Juval's 3rd Edition of his book Programming WCF Services and the Azure App Fabric Service Bus is spot on as ever but after not an awful lot of sleep it was making my head hurt!!! :(
Time for some lunch then I might give some WWF exposed via WCF a quick bash, something a little more funky for an hour or two and then back to the books... :)

A very, very, very wet outing at Lydden Hill circuit
Shared my brother's Westfield Megabusa at a track day at Lydden Hill on Saturday, you would be amazed how quickly you can get completely soaked with no roof, no windscreen and lots of speed! Race suit was soaked all day, nothing worse that putting wet stuff on and then going back out into the cold:(
Car was faultless with it's new taller differential ratio, new wide track and flat shift kit (quite a few flames on up shifts down the hill from the hairpin, sweet!), exhaust etc. the car has been in bits so well done bruv for getting all that back together in time! :)

WCF 4 Exam (70-513)
After searching and searching for something to help me along with my studies I have eventually found a practice exam up on Self Test Software, there's gotta be people other than me out there looking for this so I hope this info helps someone!
Nearly there!
Adaptec 2405 card now in the second Hp MicroServer so the storage side of things are sorted. LG Blu Ray / DVD drive turned up today so that's been fitted and seems to be working OK, although to be fair it hasn't had to do too much yet, need to give that a bit of a workout later! Have ordered a couple of Intel NICs which will occupy the remaining x1 slot in each of the machines, whilst the internal NIC seems to work OK in general and in vSphere they are not, IMHO(!!), in the same league as a good Intel card, I'm tempting fate I know! ;)
What did we do before virtualization? To be able to conjure up entire new machines in a little home lab within a matter of minutes is just so useful, having used VMWare workstation for a good while now and thinking that was good I even more impressed with VMWare's vSpehere offerings, the tools just make life easy. And that's what I want, just want it to be there and working and no hassle for little me;)
