Not to mention the hands on workshops ran under Microsoft Virtual PC which ran so slow that the hands on workshop turned into a 3 hour lecture. Way too much marketing. They should have a marketing conference and a technical conference but don't try to combine the two.

I lost all ability to convince management here to send me as soon as they saw it was in Vegas. it looked more like an excuse to go party rather than a legitimate serious conference. This was the first time in four years I have missed iForum.

Read my review at http://sbcgatekeeper.com and you'll see why I thought it was disappointing. Basically it came down to execution and the sessions were junk.
