And my rebuttal ...

>To respond to your questions, comments and rant in order:

>1.	I'm going (and presenting a non-BI paper)
I noted that in the Cognos web site along with the other thin list of PH
sessions. Sounds interesting enough for Compaq users getting out before the
ship finally sinks but seems like a limited audience.

>2.	PowerHouse Web is NOTHING like Axiant!  It's the same good ol'

I'm fully aware of the differences. Saw an early version at HP World last
August. Have downloaded the PH Web guide and read through it. Sounds fine.
Too bad it isn't free. Axiant is improving - now where it should have been 5
years ago. So where's the news and/or education in this?

Poor you for not attending other conferences. But I question how much
networking you can do with yourself when you're the only PH user in
attendance :-(

>4.	I would think Orlando during school time would be better so as to
>avoid the school age crowds.
Spoken like a guy without kids. The rest of us will get a lot of flack when
they learn Mom or Dad is going to Orlando without them!

Sorry - no sale. Still think I'll skip it.
