What issues are of deep concern to the Microsoft IT professional community? Feel free to ask about product directions, hackers, training, the value of certifications, spam, Linux, what it’s like to work at the world's largest independent software company, what is Bill Gates really like?

Send your questions, along with your name, title and company to [email protected]. And while you’re at it, feel free to tell us what you like and don’t like about magazine, newsletters, and Web site.
