Oh, what it could have been.

Back in the 90's I always dreamed of going but couldn't fit it into the schedule.

Finally made it to Indy and had a great time meeting people in the industry but I don't think the trip was cost effective from a business prospective.

I learned more from the manufacturers regional trainings overall.

I did make it to Denver but only because I was working on a large retro job in Cherry Hills Village,had a free pass, and scheduled a couple extra days for the show while I was in town.

The experience was similar to Indy.
Glad I went but happy that I didn't have to pay for the flight and room(again from a business prospective).

The sad part-28 years of CEDIA and I've never met one client that had ever even heard of it but almost everyone had heard of CES!
