I used to say I was a drummer first and a technology guy second, but who am I kidding? I play probably 8-10 times a year and practice only when the band does, which is only slightly more than we actually gig … so I’m not improving, I’m just in maintenance mode. So, l guess [...]
Thanks to Robert from our office for this visual walkthrough of the ESX4 patching process, when you don’t have Virtual Center. ESXi 4 hosts can be patched using the GUI tool VMHostUpdate.

I get asked enough, I figured I better tell the story (actually I did elsewhere, so I’m being lazy and just copying and pasting the details here).

Someone on Experts-Exchange asked about modifying/extending one of the SharePoint 40 Fantastic templates, to add their own column (Business Units) and then modify the ‘New Request’ form.
