VCF Midwest update?

To be clear, Hans and a few others said that of the event, and I was just trying to point out how successful it was for a first time event. Despite the 'small' number of exhibitors, we did fill up 21 tables and could have expanded that by at least another 4-5. Also, since we collected donations instead of charging admission, there were probably a dozen or two people beyond that 70. :) Pat Pat -- Purdue University Research Computing - http://www.rcac.purdue.edu The Computer Refuge - http://www.computer-refuge.org -----Original Message----- From: Patrick Finnegan <pat at computer-refuge.org> Date: Sunday, Jul 31, 2005 1:04 pm Subject: Re: VCF Midwest update?

Everyone I talked to seemed to think it went fantastically, especially for a first time event. We ended up with 12 exhibitors (including 1 that showed up at the event with no warning), and all 8 vendor and consignment tables will filled up. The estimated head count for the exhibits was about 70 (paid) people, which was a little less than expected, but still a pretty good turnout. I think we had a slightly smaller turnout (~50) for the speakers. Pat -- Purdue University ITAP/RCS --- http://www.itap.purdue.edu/rcs/ The Computer Refuge --- http://computer-refuge.org
