ParticipantI hear ya. I went to DAC this year in SD and it sucked. No worthy new products, and a bunch of kitsch for hearing their pitch. I didn’t even bother going to the parties. If I wanna see racks I go to the container store. 🙂

ParticipantGood job, that seems right. I live in a condo which, at the height, was going for $400k but recent sales are around $300k so 24% is spot on, at least in my case.

ParticipantHaha ucodegen back in the heyday of engineering I met Huey Lewis when his band was hired to play at a DAC conference in L.A. (you bitter engineers know what I’m talkin’ about). That’s when it was routine for companies like HP to throw million-dollar parties (and invite bitter engineers) and give away prizes like motorcycles, ultra-10 workstations (hey those used to be da shiznit), and my favorite: 3rd-row seats at a Laker’s playoff game (I won them and sat 2 rows behind Jack Nicholson!)… Ah how I miss those days, one of the few times an engineer can feel like a rock star! Nowadays you’d be lucky if you go to an industry party and win an iPod shuffle.

ParticipantSame to you! I spent a white Xmas on the slopes in Colorado, they had a record Xmas snowfall!
The day I returned I discovered two shocking events: Benazir Bhutto was assassinated and RatherOpinionated has left the blog! Needless to say I was devastated by the news.

A grieving man mourns the loss of RatherOpinionated, whose thoughtful insights ranged from “Please rent this college area house” to “you are all bitter renters”.[img_assist|nid=5979|title=(Newswire)|link=node|align=left|width=466|height=345]
Supporters of RatherOpinionated take to the streets of San Diego, burning foreclosure signs, clashing with riot police, and chanting “The bottom is here, down with bitter renters!”

Nostradamus bitterly rides the lift at Vail, ignorant to the assassination of Benazir Bhutto and the departure of one of Piggington’s most beloved and intelligent posters, RatherOpinionated.nostradamus
