Hello all!  I arrived in NYC ok and checked into my hotel
around midnight last night.  The city is HUGE!  But, anyways,
the Linux World conference is equally large.  Like I expected,
there is free swag everywhere, the only problem is I don't know
how I'm going to get it all back without having to resort to 
more baggage than my carry-on baggage.  I'll probably just try to
put some of the swag in a bag I don't mind losing and use that.

There are hundreds of vendors and booths here ranging from IBM
to the small companies that I have never heard of.

At the feature presentation today was the Penguin Bowl.  They
had two teams of six and two of the members on each team was from
the audience. The other members were from the "celebrities" in the
Linux world, including Linus.  It was hellarious!

Anyhow, anything you guys want me to check out?  I wanted to find
that company that had the small palm that I was shown, but I can't
seem to locate them.  Weren't they called Avantix or something like
that?

Cya later!
