Re: Would you take a complimentary course on HTML from a company whose website looked like this?

I have found that the vendor determines how painful those seminars can be.
For example, I will be doing one for Penton coming up here and will only
digress into vendor software (www.rpg-xml.com) for the last 10 minutes of a
40 minute presentation. The first 30 minutes will teach about XML from an
RPG programmers perspective.

In the end it is a good way to give out free education, have the publisher
get paid, and have the vendor get their name out there.

Just my .02 as a vendor....

Well, to be fair, the company's website actually looks like this:

What gets me is being required to watch their "commercials" as part of the
seminar. It reminds me of those "free" vacations where you have to attend a
seminar about investing in time-share vacation properties. :-)
