Just a reminder that this is next month. My wife has explained to me that I am planning to attend on the Wednesday 16th to avoid interfering with some things she needs me for on the other days.

I managed to squeeze two days in. I was impressed by the numbers of non-geeks in the attendees and in the booths: Linux is definitely becoming mainstream.



The organizers said they sold out and are moving to a larger space next year. Unfortunately, that probably means the show will soon become too large for Boston, but at least I can enjoy it while it is still here.

A 10 x 10 booth runs $5,000.00, another sign of popularity.

I did a LOT of walking and my feet still ache a little bit. Picked up enough literature to keep me busy for a while.

Good show, I'm looking forward to next year.
