JavaOne sucked this year 2004-07-02 - By Asad Faizi
Back I don't know what all your experience are with this JavaOne, but I found it a terrible waste of money and time - it really, really sucked. The contents was much below par. The only useful information I got out of JavaOne was the preview of what is coming in J2SE and J2EE; but I did not need to spend $2,700.00 and waste four days of my life for that - I could have just bought a book.
The management was horrible - terrible food, no coffee, tea, or even water, and extremely rude people on the floor. I saw one of these "watch-guards" practically wrestle away the second Pepsi can from one attendee who dared to pick up the extra can of soda with the lunch. Two out of four days the food was all gone by the time I made it to the lunch area. I also hated being scanned five hundred times in a day.
Well, I think this pretty much was my last JavaOne. Too bad, I have been going to everyone of them so far.
