Hi,

How many people have actually entered that contest? I've only seen my entry on the group. I have been keen to see what others are blogging about.

I just learned this contest

I have been busy and not able to log in Connect for a while... and now I just learned we have this contest!  I hope you can extend it for another month since people were probably busy (or on vacation) and did not have chance to participate.  Thanks a lot!!!

Including Recovery Solution?

Swathi,
Would the Altiris Recovery Solution be included in this, or only the former Veritas product line?

dv_cv:  You'd be better off posting a new Forum thread for BE DLO than asking your technical problem on this blog post.

Thanks,
Kyle

Well done Craig! Though it is

Well done Craig! Though it is a bit disappointing that there weren't more entries. Does this mean that next time the competition will be open to employees as well? Or perhaps have an employee-only section as well, to encourage more entries but not leave yourself open to criticism from those that claim the comp is 'rigged'.

Cheers,
Vijay

Hi VSingh, I haven't won

Hi VSingh,

I haven't won anything yet...
The competition was open from August already...it has been extended twice I think, and I don't know why anybody else didn't enter.
It's always better that way anyway.

Laters!

Zahid, this is a very old

Zahid, this is a very old thread and the contest has been closed long back. I don't see a great need for reviving back this thread with your comment. Please refrain from reviving old threads in the future. Thanks!
