I want to say what a great training course StayLinked delivered: one of the best I’ve ever taken and one of the most difficult. John Haller's command of the material was impressive, and anyone who can make terminal emulation funny is a genius! I enjoyed the entire week in Irvine, thanks to his impressive skills as a technical instructor.
