I've met extremely arrogant people in every sort of trade show I've attended, even the consumer oriented PC Faires (What? You don't own a PC-AT with at least 20Mb hard disc and a 80287? You must not be serious if you don't own GOD's gift to computing.) Anyway, someone sent me mail to the effect that SIGGRAPH '85 cost $4,000,000 to produce. Is this number accurate? Anyone out there know how much it cost, or why? Maybe we should think about the cost also, as I for one may have to pay my own way next year. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Name: Robert Skinner Mail: Saber Technology, 2381 Bering Drive, San Jose, California 95131 AT&T: (408) 945-0518, or 945-9600 (mesg. only) UUCP: ...{decvax,ucbvax}!decwrl!saber!skinner ...{amd,ihnp4,ittvax}!saber!skinner
