I think there were somewhere between three and five hundred people, about a
third of them children.

There were a couple dozen exhibits, mostly Mindstorms-based robots. Then,
there were a large number of panels (five a day?) and also a lot of smaller
tutorial sessions.

NELUG had an exhibit table, which, thanks to the cool SW stuff was quite
popular. No one from NELUG was on any of the panels, but a lot of LUGnet
people were.

Since I was unable to attend, I do have a couple questions about the event: How large was it? Number of exibits, presenters? How big of a role did the NELUGgers/AFOL's have in the presentation?
