It was great. I got to see all of my disreputable friends and even a few reputable ones. All of the usual suspects (Jaffe, Fagen etc.) plus some other guys you all know, John Ticic, Tom Schmidt, Wayne Driscol, Roland... probably quite a few more but its getting to be a blur after a solid week. Sorry if I left anyone out. You know who you are and I enjoy seeing you all even if I can't remember who I saw from one day to the next. Must be getting old or something. The venue and hotel were excellent. There were lots of sessions on subjects I found interesting and a few that were worth the price of the trip on their own. This was probably the most content I've seen at a share in a while. The trade show was very well attended too. My own presentation on Thursday afternoon was almost a disaster, when my laptop had a hard fail and refused to boot. I was saved by Mark Zelden who downloaded my pitch from the share site via the wi-fi in the room and I was able to give it using his laptop. Started 5 min late, but ended on time! (Phew) Oh yeah, and it was a pitch about availability <blush> ZELDEN ROCKS!!!! So let's all do it again in Seattle.
