Some of you may already know that we’re participating in Intel’s Software Innovator Program. This has been a great experience so far, as it has helped us tremendously in many ways, including providing early access to Intel technical information, general help and advice with Intel’s broad portfolio of software and hardware, and sometimes even product samples!

I’ll share a bit more about what was in the box, and what I did to earn the award, in a future post. Stay tuned!
