I've been to 2 of each. Each has it's strong points. Share certainly has
many more sessions presented, which is good and bad. Its good in that there
is a lot to choose from, but thats also a bad point. You often get 5
sessions that you'd like to attend, but can only go to one. Also, both
Share's I've attended I found several slots where nothing really interested
me. The IBM Expo seems to be more focused. Almost all of the sessions are
ones that interest me. Also, the IBM Expo presents most of the sessions
twice, making it a lot easier to get to more of the ones you really want to
go to. It also starts at 9:00 A.M., making it easier to get up in the
morning after partying the night before. The sessions are longer - I think
1hr. 15min compared to 55 minutes.

Funny you should say that, since 99.9999% the sessions at z/OS Expo are
also presented at SHARE.
Hmmm.... 999,999 out of every million....
I've never been to an Expo, but I doubt that there have been anywhere
near million sessions there in it's entire history.
