CES 2005

Recommended Posts

Anyone else going to the consumer electronics show in Vegas next month? I'll be there for two days, looking for dual-DIN ARM based automotive displays for work. Should be quite the spectacle - all the new consumer electronics stuff from major manufacturers.

I lothe CES.

Makes my head hurt to see so much crap product just to see the one or two really cool things and then you can't even really get near the cool things because there are a bajillion other geeks also there.

Also, I'm highly tainted from years of dealing with broadcast products that actually work, so when I see some consumer products, it actually hurts my eyes to look at them.

"Consumer" Electronics Show...maybe it should be "Biomass Electronics Show"...or just Biomass Show...BS for short...B|

Besides, who would go there just to see the latest techno-crap when there's so much more fun to be had? ;)B|:):$:):o

Doesn't that in itself make it fun? I mean, like skydivers sitting around the campfire after jumps (i.e. after knowing all that is out there in the computer world) and swapping ideas and stories together?
