All,
I am sitting in Phoenix waiting for my flight that has been delayed
for 3 hours. So, I thought I would write a note about the Spectrum
show that ended last night. To describe the event in one word,
"Excellent". I don't know the exact number but it appeared to me that
there were many more end users and VARS there this year than last.
For the first time in years, I didn't recognize the attendees walking
around. This is a good thing as this means that Nathan did a good job
of marketing. I had a short discussion with Nathan this morning and
congratulated him personally on a job well done.
For those of you not in attendance, you should rethink this for next
year. Nathan has some good ideas to put forth in the coming years and
I think you will all enjoy whats ahead.
I missed the first couple of days of the show because of scheduling
conflicts but for the 2 days that I was there I found the events to be
fresh and enthusiastic. The closing event was the highlight of the
show, a Casino Night. People were having such a good time that we
complained every time Nathan interrupted us with a door prize
drawing. And as usual Drew Conboy won the grand prize, this must have
been fixed (only kidding). Come to think of it, I won the first door
prize (and no, it wasn't fixed or at least thats my story).
Serious though, I thing all of you should serious think about
attending next year. This one was a blast.
Thanks again Nathan,
Rick
