I felt a little embarassed at the end, when people began getting into some 
heated political debating and Ted was just left standing at the front while 
they bickered back and forth across the room. It seemed very inappropriate 
for the situation and I hope Ted wasn't too put off by it...

I really enjoyed the talk though. I thought what he said about people getting 
complacent because Microsoft hasn't been releasing any really major 
technology was very astute;

For those who didn't attend, his point was that we should be worried rather 
than pleased that microsoft OSs haven't been making huge leaping changes in 
the last five years or so, because they certainly haven't been 'sitting on 
their hands' to use his phrase. He thinks that the upcoming changes which  
Wulf mentioned are going to make some very large anti-exit barriers to those 
who choose to use microsoft products.

It was a fun evening, I'll be watching out for future UKUUG talks...
