SunRay on TV
Well, my oldest was not feeling well this morning, so he and I spent some time sitting on the couch in front of the TV (a rarity for us these days) just relaxing a bit. As is the case for many kids his age, he is obsessed with everything Thomas and Friends. You know, Thomas the Tank Engine.... He absolutely loves the wooden train sets (OK - I think they are pretty fun too....)
Wouldn't you know it, but UNC-TV had a Thomas marathon on this morning supporting their fund drive. So, as I am sitting there reading the paper - my son wide eyed at the programming - the cutaway for the pledge drive came on.
It took me a second (I was short a couple of cups of coffee at that point) and several doubletakes, but I finally caught on. In perfect frame, right behind the nice lady standing next to the big yellow featherd Big Bird being created with all the new UNC-TV Kids member names - was... yep - SunRays! A big row of them, with smart cards even!
How cool is that? I have had more customer interest in SunRays in the past six months than I have in my entire five years at Sun. POCs, presos, talks about integration, pilots - long distance SunRay implementations... you name it. Good stuff!
