Meeting Garry Kasporov !!!

Today I went for a seminar conducted by IBM via IDC on their IBM Software Day in Dubai 24th May 2011. IBM is celebrating their 100th year in June 2011.

Had told my son also that I may meet him and take a photo. Lucky I was to get a photo with him and an autograph to show him.
