We would like to collect feedback from participants within five days after each video is posted. When we release the product, the 5 customers who provide the most feedback about the videos will receive Dell Management Console T-Shirts as a token of our appreciation.

These customers will be chosen based on early participation in Phase 1, size of test lab, diversity of geographical location, industry segment, and willingness to provide testimonial to industry analysts and participate in case studies.
