Free whitepaper – Hands on with Hyper-V 3.0 and virtual machine movement

Those readers who find there simply aren't enough hours in the day to get stuff done are advised to check out Continental Airlines' return flights to the US of A: now complete with in-flight meal, a choice of entertainment and some bonus time in New York to catch up on that vital work:

That 28-hour stopover in full

A good effort: four short hours extended to a comfortable 28. No doubt Ryanair will soon respond by offering a cut-price "extra-30-hour-day" deal, while Virgin Atlantic business-class customers will certainly enjoy an executive 100-hour solar cycle in which to quaff the finest champagne. ®
