Brian Huneycutt
Brian is currently a developer (more a jack-of-all-trades really) on the Configuration Manager Sustained Engineering team. He started as a Support Engineer handling consumer desktop support issues at Microsoft in 1999. After having his fill of "No, there is no double right click, just a double left click" and "I'm sorry sir, I cannot help you with your ISP's login password issue" he escaped transitioned to the SMS team, where he quickly learned the value of the SMS logs. Once firmly entrenched in the SMS world, he worked through all levels of support, ending up as an Escalation Engineer ("What do you want to debug today?") prior to moving to the product team. These days he still partners with CSS (current acronym for Support) on problem investigations, along with development work on hotfixes, service packs, and generally anything that needs either fixing or a very long email. Those fleeting moments of free time are split between family, tooling around town in a little Triumph Spitfire, or making sawdust in the garage / workshop.
Ted Sendler
Ted is a Support Escalation Engineer on the System Center Support Team at Microsoft. He is primarily focused on issues dealing with MOM 2005, Operations Manager 2007, Service Manager 2010, System Center Essentials 2007 and 2010 , and Opalis.
Wally Mead

He has then been involved with all versions of SMS, and now Configuration Manager, from developing and delivering training, or assisting customers on newsgroups and forums, or directly with them through the TAP program. He now is a Senior Program Manager in the Configuration Manager Product Group, responsible for community efforts, such as forums, managing the MVPs, presenting at conferences, and working with TAP customers.
