Funny Stuff
Incidently the Channel Expo computer show didn't have any booth babes this year (I've heard that in previous years there has been some wandering about).

But there were a few things that caught my eye.

Over at Acronis (data backup) they had a workstation propped up that had smoke coming out of it. At first glance I wondered what was going on, a few moments later the girl that stood by the tower pressed a button and more puffs of smoke came seeping out. Quite funky!

Google made an appearance at the show but there didn't seem to be much going on there except they had a giant chocolate machine. What was funny was, people came wandering over took what they wanted and then walked off with a handful of chocolate.

ESET was one of the major companies that were present at the show, being a chief sponsor they had a very interesting stand. Towering above anything else they had a giant robot there, resembling something off I-Robot!

Altogether the show was enjoyable and it gave some insight into the future for both gaming and hardware companies that we visited. Taking into consideration the amount of companies there at the show, only a handful were computer hardware companies.

Until next time!
