I just didn't enjoy the location. When it was in Orlando a few years ago, it was great. There were plenty of things to do and see; different places to eat every night. I had a really good time. Then the following year I went to Santa Clara and there was nothing to do. I went to the movies one night. Had dinner at Sizzler three times. I drove 45 minutes to find a place I could buy a shirt. The rest of the time I stayed in the hotel and watched crappy tv. If you folks want me to be away from my family and friends for five days you've gotta give me a reason to wanna go besides the great technical information. I didn't go to last years, I'm not going to this years and I probably won't go to any future ones held in Santa Clara. When I came home from the last one, my kids asked what I got them from my trip and I had nothing for them. It was just a boring place to go and I don't wanna go back. I'd just like to see it held someplace new every year. Thanks for replying to my comment

To be honest, it's not entirely clear yet if we will change the location for upcoming events. But could you explain why you didn't enjoy yourself at the last one? How can we improve?
