Well, the first day was interesting. We a variety of questions from why do we do this, what's going on with RH, how come this is the first I've heard of you. And hundreds more. The good thing is that we've recieve a very positive response from everyone that visited our booth. Such a positive response that all our CentOS CD's are gone, and most of the cAos CD's are gone, and I've only got a few CentOS DVD's left.
So if anyone can magically make 500 or 600 CentOS CD's magically appear, that would be great. :-> Anyway, I'll try to keep everyone posted during the day. Time to go back to the convention center.
I should also add that, normally (actually always) I wear a hat. I tend to prefer the Old Navy hats. Well, yesterday before heading out to the show I grabbed my current Old Navy ballcap, not thinking much about it. So while at the show a lot of people were talking about the whole RH thing, and quite a few people that it was pretty funny that I was wearing a red hat. It wasn't planned, but it was pretty funny :->
