Vegas could be problematic. Maybe BMC will listen to this before they really decide. As others have pointed out, the economy is not in great shape. I work for a company that manufacturers connectors for appliances, cars, computers, phones, power lines, etc. People are tightening their belts and not buying like they did.
It also not just in the US. The events over the last few weeks are effected economies through out the world. In response, Tyco Electronics is looking at ways to tighten it's belt. A conference in Vegas when the economy continues to slow down is not a good thing. My asking to attend a conference in Vegas may be frowned upon as extravagant. It maybe similar to scheduling a conference in Florida during hurricane season and in a hotel that's going to be renovated. In this case the conference maybe held but the technical folks can't come because of the cost and the glitz in a bad economy. Then again we may get lucky and the economy pick up. For me it probably be an easier sell if it were in San Francisco or Houston.

It appears I just got an "official email" from [EMAIL PROTECTED] the subject of "BMC UserWorld Miami Reimbursement Process." It details what forms to fill out, where to send the receipts, etc. I spoke with another person that had registered and she was given a reimbursement process 2 weeks ago. Just as FYI, the last paragraph of the "official email" is below: Mark Your Calendars Many of you have been asking, and we are pleased to let you know that UserWorld will be held in October 2009. Look for more details including dates and locations coming soon!
