Server vs Client - Comic Strip.
Well, Nectarine have done it again. I want to adopt this company, raise them to be the sons & daughters I've never had and marry them off to rich merchants as this latest round of comics is art unto itself.
After the much regarded success of their previous comics and no doubt after featuring me in it (surely that's what got them their real fame, not the splendid artwork) we, Microsoft have supported their talent by getting them to produce some more comics focused around Windows 2008.
I'd argue that they not only have done it well, but captured the ITPro within us all quite well. I mean after all, isn't being an IT Pro about clicking on "Next.." these days?
*runs as Jeff, Deeps, Michael come after me with knives*
I'm kidding, I know at times you also have to click on the "Back.." button as well, it can be exhausting work! heheheh
(NOTE: Jeff and Michael do more then wizard stepping and I'd like to give a shout out to our local IT Pro folks as without you folks doing what you do, us developers would no way of navigating the hurdles that we face within security, network and so on.. You are more than Next/Back Button clickers to me and I want to celebrate that out loud and proud... you guys/gals.. complete me..)
