Last fall, I had the honor of going to visit Cal State University Monterey Bay. Neil MacDonald, who runs the the EVA lab (among other things) asked if I would go with him to do an internal video to celebrate the 100,000th EVA shipped. Well, who wouldn't jump at a chance at going to Monterey Bay AND visiting a customer. That visit was one of the highlights of 2011. Of course the fantastic lunch Neil and I had at Phil's Fish Market in Moss Landing sure helped make the day memorable.
But really the star of the day was visiting Steven and Paul and hearing about what a work horse the EVA5000 had been and how easy it was to get the P6000 EVA up and running.
I had previously written a blog about this visit but kept it anonymous because I didn't have everything I needed in place to name CSUMB. Well, lucky for me because today we also did a press release highlighting CSUMB as the 100,000th EVA customer.
Here's the video that I did on my visit - 99.9% the same as I did for the team celebration we have. The only change I made was to remove a slide that said "Thanks team".
You can learn more about the P6000 EVA at www.hp.com/go/P6000.
I'd love to do more stories like these and am working with my customer reference team to do that - if you're interested in being featured on ATSB in either a podcast or a video, drop me an email.
