Doesn't the NO show happen in the spring? Don't you think VFP 7 won't be released until some time in the fall, when the Miami Devcon occurs? If I have to choose, I'm going to the Miami session for that reason alone. I hate NO anyway. Puke or feces on the sidewalk surrounded by drunks, whores and cross dressers doesn't sound like a good time to me, not to mention the smell!<g>
