You going to be a commuter, or stay at the hotel? I can't seem to get my
arms around the concept of a $10 per day "resort fee" that includes
wireless
access that I wouldn't use (Sprint card), 2 bottles of bottled tap water
(Dasani) that I wouldn't drink and newspapers that I wouldn't have time to
read.

I sent a note to COMMON asking if I could get my money back if I returned
the water and newspapers to the front desk upon checking out. I haven't
been
given a response yet.

That would be really lame since it's just around the corner from where I
live. Guess I'm just having one of those Can't-Make-Myself-Understood
days. I thought the operable words were "outside of" and "warm." But
then (sigh) I knew what I meant.

I guess one of the things that will be interesting is the "size" of each
portion.

And by "size" I mean two things:

* The number of IBM presentations and other stuff (expo, etc.) for
each system, and
* The number of people attending/patronizing each system.

Not being able to personally attend too many seminars, etc., outside of
COMMON and the LUG, I'm holding out for the System i Developer thingie
this Fall - if they choose to have it some place warm (wink, wink,
nudge, nudge). But, then, they'll probably use that as an excuse/reason
to hold it in Fairbanks. .-)

IBM POWER Systems Technical Conference featuring i5/OS (formerly
IBM System i Spring and Fall Technical Conferences)
Date/Location - TBD

My understanding is that there will be a single conference this year
- not two as in the past - and that it will be a combined Power
conference -i.e. System i and System p.
