I have updated Buzzword Bingo to add some new terms for 2008 - I cannot believe it has been a year since it was last posted (Buzzword Bingo). You can download it here: http://www.jasonslater.co.uk/resources/buzzword2008.pdf
This time last year my favourite two buzz words were Virtualization and Unified. This year they are Web 2.0, Zero Carbon and Green IT (ok Green IT is three words!).
The game is simple, print off the sheet, fill in your chosen buzzwords and cross them off as they come up during a seminar.
You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Using Terminal Services through an RDP connection typically makes things such as CTRL-ALT-DELETE trickier than using a dedicated desktop or thin client terminal.
