Well, maybe I can talk the boss into going too lol.
I asked myself the same question, and to get a $459 piece of software (albeit not a retail version), I think it's well worth the $50 + gas I'll lose for half a day's work. I'll be able to use Office 2007 for years to come.Originally posted by: RKS
got in the Cincy one but is it even worth the 1/2 vacation day?

Click on the Find an Event button.
Too bad registration starts at noon, or I'd go to the one in Atlantic City. I've got class, unfortunately.

if u schedule to go to one of the sessions, u can pick up your free gift at the end of the session, if u r scheduled for all day, u pick it up at the end of the day (so either noon or 5pm)

For those of you that went already, what exactly did you get? did you get a hard copy of office or just a link to where to download it and a key code?

The freebie bag contained a light-up pen (mine doesn't work!), a pad of paper, a black Microsoft "Ready for a New Day" launch tshirt, some informational flyers, two 30% off Microsoft certification exam vouchers (no free vouchers this time - but it looks like anyone can get the discount by going to www.microsoft.com/learning/launch), and the resource kit with the resource CD, a link to download Office 2007 Pro, and a full-version key.

Got mine today in Indy.
Edit: The talks were a waste of time unless you're interested in nothing but show-and-tell and no real technical knowledge transfer. If I could do it all over again I would have only taken a few hours off work instead of the entire day.
