Better pack light. We’re bringing more swag!
The sponsors for SQLCruise have really gone off the deep end. I can’t thank them enough for not just helping get more SQL Server people trained, but giving out tons of cool stuff, too.
Each day is sponsored by a different vendor, and during their dinner or lunch, we’ll be giving away an official SQLCruise netbook!
And yes, I’ve already taken the time to preload SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer Edition and sample databases for you, so as soon as you win it, you can jump right into testing out your new-found knowledge. I’ve also bought a copy of Jimmy Buffet’s classic Songs You Know By Heart for each netbook and preloaded that too, so if you’d rather veg out with a margarita while you listen to Margaritaville, hey, that works too. Or you could do all of the above.
Of course, the cruisers also get Amazon gift certificates for books, signed copies of my book, t-shirts, Hawaiian shirts, SQLCruise towels, a beach bag, and much more – all courtesy of our sponsors:
- SQLSentry – who not only sponsored the cruise, but gave away four free cruises too!
- Quest Software
- MSSQLTips.com
- Red Gate Software
Want to thank ’em for giving so much to the community? Copy/paste this into a tweet:

Or of course, if you’d rather edit that tweet, fire away. See you in less than two weeks!
