JavaZone in Oslo is a really good conference, and I’ve been there 3 times now. The last two years I’ve only been able to attend one day, but it’s been good anyhow.
You can find slides/podcasts/videos from the sessions here.
One of the sessions I attended that provided the most hands on info I can use in my daily work was Jonathan Purdys presentation on The Top Ten Ways to Botch an Enterprise Java Application.
This application enables you to share your keyboard and mouse across numerous computers in your network in a flexible way. It supports both windows, Mac OSX and “Unix” (Linux, Solaris, Irix and other variants).

Setting up XRadar these days. Should probably complement it with some of these tools too.
