See you at MIX07

I'll be attending MIX again this year. Highlights include WPF and WPF/e.

Due to the nature of the crowd MIX tries to attact, they do night clubs instead of something fun. This year, the night event is at the PURE nightclub in LV. While I wasn't really into that, I checked into it anyway. They have one of the strictest dress codes of any nightclub out there. The references I found said they require you to dress fashionably (no sneakers, polos, out-of-date styles, etc.). Like many people in this profession, I own absolutely nothing that could be even remotely considered fashionable, and if I did, I wouldn't want to bother lugging it along bloating up my luggage. Pfftth.

I do have to admit, though, that MIX06 had the best dressed crowd I have ever seen at a Microsoft conference. It's really easy to pick the implementation folks out from the crowd - we stick out like, well, poorly dressed sore thumbs

See you there. I'll sure you'll have no problem spotting me ;)

Pete, Let me know if you need to borrow some clothes to wear to Mix. I have a nice liesure suit in my closet and some Italian loafers. Speaking of loafers, if you get a chance you should check out the pool at the Hard Rock in Vegas. Very nice scenery. But beware, there are web cams everywhere. http://www.hardrockhotel.com/peep_poolcams.php
