Sometimes the Gods just tend to be against you,
I’m due to do a presentation tomorrow, my laptop has just died and on my second machine a VM that has worked fine for 2 months now fails completely.

Here’s two sites that you should check out.
The first one should make you feel better

The ten worst presentation moments

And this is Don Box on technical presentations

Best not to follow all of Don Box’s advice tho!
I saw Don at TechEd2000 he spent the whole talk behind the presentation podium wearing a long black TechEd t-shirt he had been forced to wear.
A the end of the talk he stepped out and revealed that to protest against being forced to wear it that was all he was wearing.

cheers,
