Microsoft Usability study
I’ve been chatting with Siddhika on Microsoft’s User Research program.
Right now, immediately, Microsoft is looking for users willing to participate in Microsoft’s System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) research group.

Listed below is a short blurb that was forwarded to me moments ago:
Usability study for System Center Configuration Manager Users (Puget Sound Only)
Microsoft Usability is conducting a study focusing on the on design ideas for the next version of System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) from July 21 to July 25, 2008. Sessions are limited, though we do have openings we are currently scheduling into. This is a great opportunity for SCCM users who have experience working with System Center Configuration Manager to provide feedback and help improve the user experience of SCCM’s next version.
The study will be conducted in a lab setting on Microsoft’s main campus in Redmond, Washington. It is important for you to know that you do not need to prepare anything for this. We want to learn from you, the experts, to determine what needs to be improved in our software. As a token of our appreciation each participant will receive a gift item they select from a list of some of Microsoft's most popular hardware and software titles.
If you are interested or know someone who could be interested in participating, please email us at itusable@microsoft.com with SCCM in subject line.
