VMware EXPLORE is approaching fast. Why 7 sessions only you might ask. Well, considering you have 3 days of VMware EXPLORE, you don't want to “supercharge” yourself to with sessions, when you know that they'll be available for watching later.
A seven sessions leaves you with 2-3 daily sessions (which is already a lot) and the rest of the time you can do other things (meet other vExperts, bloggers, pass the certification exam (with 50% discount) or hang out within Solution Exchange.
Update: VMware Schedule builder is now available.
