You are invited by the Chairman of the West Yorkshire branch of the British Computer Society to attend the inaugural meeting of a Leeds VMWare user group.

The venue is in Leeds town centre and only a short walk from the train station and local car parks. A big thank you to the Wellington for allowing us use of the room free of charge for this first event.

The primary goals of this event are:

• Discover techniques for troubleshooting VM performance issues
• Meet and exchange ideas with peers
• Develop the format and agenda for the next meeting
• Recruit volunteers to help with next meeting

If you wish to attend please fill in your details above to reserve your place. The room will hold 70 but only half of that is practical for the round table events due to the noise of other people speaking on the next table.
