I still wear my AMD Embedded shirt from the Embedded Systems Conference Chicago in 1999... had to beat some time in "Corvette" at their booth; the shirt was green with an AMD 386/486 pattern on it. What a blast that week was - we had a booth there, and they had "vendor appreciation night" - free beer, food, and we got to keep the heavy glass mugs.
/Miss not having the show that close anymore...
