Auckland, Greenlane Conference Centre, next to the racetrack. All the
details are here:

It's open Wednesday - but I take a break on the Wednesday to get work
done - and Thursday this week.

The worthwhile visit part, well it depends on what you do there and as
one of the exhibitors I'd consider myself somewhat biased in the field
of giving that kind of advice. Ethical dilema thing, so I'll leave that
bit to others.

Notable by their absence are Microsoft, IBM, HP and Compaq (deceased).
The visitors must be getting the feeling it's some kind of Linux shop
what with 4 Linux stalls, some of which are vending multiple
Linux-related products. The sight of a major corporate such as Sony (for
whom I'm doing some part-time consultancy) touting Linux as an important
feature is kind of knocking the socks off of some people.

If you do go, don't forget to ask those vendors who aren't advertising
Linux compatability or support "Why not?" And buy a beer for those who
are :)
