I don't know, but it sure hasn't seemed to have hurt attendance at all.

why is PDC in September? shouldn't it be in August where alot of people have off or can take off..?

My guess is that you answered your own question. August is vacation time, the end of the summer, got to go somewhere before the kids head back to school type time.

Although PDC is a lot of fun, its still for your career and/or company.

That's my guess.

What software do you use to edit these videos and do you use professional cameras or consumer ones?

I know , I know - However your statment can be interpreted as "They code for 4 hours while asleep" by someone (like me) looking for a cheap ha ha

You assume I edit these things? Only when PR says "no well in heck can you post that."

Anyway, I use a Panasonic PV-150 camcorder. I bought it at Best Buy here in Bellevue for about $800 (came out to around $1,000 when I got an extended warranty, extra battery, some tapes and paid tax).

I don't use extra lights, microphones or anything other than a Bogen 3021 tripod with video head (heavy sucker).

I use Windows MovieMaker and Windows Media Encoder.

This is my first time to attend and I’m very interested in meeting MS guys and discuss a lot of things I don’t know if it is going to be easy
