My take on Azure Virtual Desktop in 2025.
🚀 AVD has evolved! AVD now rivals the experience of it's competitors, without the CapEx headaches. The real game-changer? Nerdio.
⚖️ Simple auto-scaling
💾 Simplified image management
💻 Windows 365 integration
Things I loved about the #Microsoft AI Tour:
✅ Learning about some of the new exciting features coming to AI services
✅ Hearing about some of the new capabilities in Copilot for Microsoft 365.
There’s going to be more than enough to keep you busy!
Things I didn’t like:
❎ Avanti West Coast trains
Gutted, can’t get it in the uk 😞
I'm looking forward to "LinkedIn VideoTok Enterprise E5" with the option for a Gold add-on subscription
I’m not sure I’m ready for “Microsoft LinkedIn TikTok 365 Copilot for Enterprise E5 Gold”
I think I’ve found my new favourite RFC! 😃
Maybe it might encourage them to put some half decent processors in them to make them half bearable! Experience of smart TVs to date has been woeful. They get far too slow, too soon 😕
I 100% endorse this. Also provides sufficient network features (VLANs etc.,) to create lab/enterprise scenarios. And a kids SSID that switches off at 2000hrs 🤗
Late 70’s and 80’s films are better than any film that will be made today. Notably the Superman series, and back to the future.
There’s no wonder in modern films, everything’s just “computers”.
That’s normal. I’m doing the same for my new bread maker. 🤣
Spot on that. But I’m running a bit behind and only on 2nd breakfast.
This is a feature in new Outlook on Windows. Ability to manage PSTs!
I know this is a feature a lot have been looking for, and been a deal breaker for moving!

Since we don't have polls:
Repost if you want _less_ generative AI in your tech in 2025.

Don’t rub it in. I’ve got a whole day to do yet 😂
Only a 3 hour print of maker world!
And if you have wrapping to do this time of year, this is amazing!!!
I 100% agree. Searching is awful 😞
I hope everyone can remember their Office app URLs this morning. 😱
#Microsoft365 #Office365
It is 100% a pre-release beta, that has neither gone through OAT or UAT,
I would much rather OpenAI make chat GPT good and respond with clearly wrong stuff, despite a perfectly articulated prompt, rather than release half baked shiny new things 😒
Future next development will include:
- Add-ons
- Business SKUs
- easy repeatable updates
New Microsoft 365 Licensing Mind map.
I've needed an updated "what's included with what license visualisation", and I know there are already excellent resources out there.
It's a very early incarnation at the moment, but will be developed further.
Feedback welcome!

Infosec: Tim, you need to do the phishing training again
Me: why?
Infosec: You didn’t acknowledge the phishing test.
Me: I’ve got 3000+ unread, I don’t do email
English breakfast tea. Does that count?
Every phone I’ve had since my Lumia 1020 has been a downgrade.
I seem to use:
“Just because you can, it doesn’t mean you should”
An awful lot!
Pleasantly surprised by the discover feed. I never used the for you feed on the other platform, because it was well, not for me! 😕 give it a try!
I’ve always used my favourites for that. “Oooh I’ll read that later”.
Never get round to it! 😔
Surprised nothing has been mentioned at #MicrosoftIgnite about Microsoft Recall 😔
