As many of you may know, I am directly involved with the Microsoft Windows Mojave Experiment. For more information on this project, please read my posts titled:

On September 6th and 7th, The Microsoft Windows Mojave Experiment came to the Best Buy in Lynnwood, WA (about 20 minutes north of Seattle). The mission was simple, show average retail customers what Microsoft Windows Vista was all about. The mission was dangerous, after all Windows Vista doesn’t have the greatest reputation out there, but armed with our trusty Windows Vista laptops, we were ready to face the challenge!

The purpose of the event was to encourage consumers to “decide for yourself” about Windows Vista, and not base everything off of rumors, commercials, early horror stories, etc. The event was a tremendous success. As a matter of fact, plenty of people who had just finished purchasing their new Windows Vista computers came in to learn how to use their new computers. More than that though, the event took great strides in connecting customers with Microsoft and Microsoft with its customers.

Well I am happy to say that on September 27th, the “Decide for Yourself” event is coming to the great city of Hot Dogs, Deep Dish Pizza, and ‘Da Bears”, Chicago. The event will be held at the Evanston Best Buy, located at: 2301 Howard St, Evanston, IL 60202. So if you are in the Chicago area, stop by and say hello!
