I tend to go down to the London one, as it's no big deal from Cambridge. As an event, it's clearly more focussed on the wider IT world than BETT's educational remit, but I've found several gems whilst visiting. The freebies are much more generous, too... Worth a visit, at least once.

I'm going this year

I think I might have to see if I can go

[woodham]

just registered for it now to get it passed by SMT

[Joanne]

I'm allowed to go. Unfortunately on my half day Thursday, but that means chilling in Manc in the afternoon!

I'm going

trying to convince Mr Pete to ask work to go too.... he never gets to go to BETT.

I'm at this thang tomorrow. I've got a few talks I wouldn't mind seeing. If any of you guys are going today, give me a shout of where the best stands be at

[jhothersall]

I'll be there Joanne tomorrow, last year Sophos was good the keynote from Microsoft too.

I'm particularly interested in seeing 'How to recover from a Ransomware Infection; LIVE' although it might be really boring watching a virus scan and then a backup restore!

I thought it would be that where selling a product that did snapshots :-(

[Dos_Box]

Damn, I missed this!

[kearton]

Been there today (just on train home). Missed *every* talk I'd planned to go to coz I was gas-bagging with people on the stands. So not much help sorry...

[jhothersall]

Just arrived, should be a good day

[Joanne]

My data stopped working while I was there so couldn't post!

 

I went to a couple of talks and got some goodies. Got a t-shirt, socks, dancing robot, sweets, gingerbread, sorbet, pens. It really wasn't that great for me... mostly aimed at security... I was after servers! Hah!
