Agfa got people to wear their boxes. They promised a prize to someone walking around with their box. People
do unbelievable things to get free stuff at Comdex.

Here is Comdex Space selection. Companies go here and select space based mostly on the number of years

There was quite a bit of space not sold this year. Next year will be even smaller probably. It looked like

much.

A few years ago it was impossible to get space in the Convention Center even a year ahead of time. Now there
are empty places during the show.
