Let me tell you the fee's are crazy. I was invited to Linux World New 
York to setup a booth. IDG sent me the "Package" with the price list. They 
wanted me to pay them $20,000 USD to setup a SMALL booth. The fees are 
crazy to a point of Its almost not work attending some of them, even as a 
bystander. The biggest money gets the biggest show, not the best 
technology.

Sorry for my bad attitude about most of these tech fairs.
