Actually, I'll bet it's less expensive in Vegas. The hotels count on income from gambling by attendees. That's why room rates are generally low.

F1 Technologies has had their FoxExpress conference in Vegas for several years precisely because the rates are low.

>An ironic twist to this is that Advisor is taking a calculated gamble. I don't know what the turnout was like in Palm Springs, but I'd have to guess it was low. All the chips might be on the table next year. I'd have to imagine it's much more expensive to hold a conference in Vegas than in Palm Springs. If you don't get a good turnout this time, I predict it will be the last DevCon. I do think it's a better risk than another place like Palm Springs. Just based on the fact that it is in Vegas, I'm predicting a big payoff for Advisor and the FoxPro community.
