  • RE: About when will SQL Server 2012 be released?

    Both SQL Server Connections (Mar 26-29) in Las Vegas, and SQL Bits X (Mar 29-31) in London are listed as official "launch" events, so I would assume it is planned...

  • RE: BYOD

    We do have ASK.SQLServerCentral.Com if you really prefer posting to a place with a reputation system.

    The thing is, some questions lend themselves to that...
