    Got the following messages when I tried to use it:

    Promotion not found (when I tried it as a Promotion) and
    Voucher number is not valid (when I tried it as a voucher number) :(

    Too bad :(

    The Virtualization one worked for me. Said that I'll get my voucher by mail in the next 48 hours...

    Hope it goes through, I was planning on passing the Hyper-V exam in the next week or so (just need to register for it).

    Let's hope it's not another fiasco like the recent Technet one

    TBH, I don't think the Hyper-V exam will be all that hard...

    Granted, I haven't taken it yet, but what I've seen so far looks to be a relatively simple to pass.
    I have some experience in various virtualization technologies, I've read a book on Hyper-V, I've installed Hyper-V in ServerCore and full versions plus I'm now fiddling with VMM, and it all just kinda "makes sense" to me if you see what I mean.

    Time will tell of course.

    Yeah, it all seems quite intuative so far. I have been enjoying deploying in our network. We have 13 and counting servers running under Hyper-V so far. About half of those were from P2V conversions. Our server room is slowly getting quieter as we switch off some of our older servers. :)

    Free, only for today, an opportunity to come and wash my car. Send me a PM if interested! :)

    I have taken good few MS and Comptia beta exams. MS beta exams, I've found, are better than the Comptia ones.

    Got mine too. SWEET! Could this be a move by MS to attempt to gain ground on the VCP certification? Increasing the number of MCP's with a Virtualisation cert?

    Does anyone know if MS plan to create a specific cert for Virtualisation?

    I wouldn't be surprised if they came out with something like the MCITP: Virtualisation Adminstrator, MCITP: Virtual Systems Administrator or the MCITP: Hyper-V Adminstrator, something along those lines.

    I mean they already have the MCTS for Hyper-V (70-652) and for SCVMM (70-403). MS is currently going thru the process of developing a new MCTS for Hyper-V in r2, so all they'll need to do is to develop the Pro exam. That's my opinion anyway...

    Hopefully I'll hear back from a few people and then let you guys know :)
