It sort of sounded like “See Paris and Die” but now that I’ve typed it I don’t think it works. However … Adaptec have a stand at CeBIT. Why should I be interested? I put my hand up to stand on the stand and talk to people endlessly about our products, but the marketing team knocked me back.
They weren’t convinced that even the english-speakers in the crowd would understand my Australian drawl or unusual language … and seemed convinced that I was just looking for a junket to Hanover in Germany and to build up my frequent flyer points further. I did explain that it’s not October and no self-respeting Australian would be interested in going to Germany at any other time than the “fest”, but that didn’t seem to carry much weight.
Therefore both you and I are gong to have to wait for news on all the latest and greatest products to come out of Europe’s largest technical trade show. Hopefully some lucky journalist writes all about the upcoming products he sees (and sees but is not supposed to see) and gives us something to drool over until Computex in Taiwan later in the year.
At least I stand a chance of getting to Taiwan (and yes, the beer is pretty good there too).
Ciao
Neil
