TESTIMONIALS FROM LAST YEARS' CONFERENCE:
�I truly enjoy coming to the conference because I get to meet face to face other Alpha users and developers from around the world. It�s good to catch up with old friends and meet new ones. I would say that I gained most from conversations over dinner or at lunch. The way ideas flow from chance remarks is invaluable.� � B. Whitaker (United Kingdom)
�This year's conference was better than last years� for me. No fluff! Just some real good examples of "this is what to do, and here is how you do it". Code and examples were freely shared. When you have some real "MEAT" to bring on home and use, you feel like you got your money's worth. That is what made this year's conference GREAT! Even if the session went too fast for you to understand, you at least had a guide to take home and follow step by step instructions to refresh your memory and learn from what was demonstrated!� � D. Blank (Carrollton, TX)
�It was good to see a lot of attendees sharing their work, ideas, and helping each other all during the conference. There were laptops pulled out in the meeting rooms, in the lobby, and at the lunch and dinner tables. The pool-side discussions were good too. I also liked the concentrated session format.� � K. Jackson (Wichita, KS)
�This year's format contained something for everyone, from new 'Alpha-ites' to the seasoned developer. The interaction of presenters and 'class' during the sessions was a benefit I really appreciated. I learned something in every session I attended and was never made to feel my question or comment wasn't 'worthy'. All the presenters were excellent and the presenters who had to fill in did an excellent job with sharing their knowledge with us all.� � T. Hernacki (Schaumburg, IL)
�I made an effort to attend this year (after having missed the last several years) and I'm GLAD I did! The solo talks & panel discussions were excellent and there was plenty of time for Q & A with the audience. The choice to distribute the presentations on thumb drives was inspired. It was great to rub shoulders with other Alpha Five users and developers. Saw lots of old friends, and was able to put faces to many of the names I've become familiar with on this board. Made me realize how much I'd missed by not attending in previous years! Personally, I came away from the conference inspired to extend my Alpha knowledge in two distinct areas: (a) building web apps; and (b) learning more about how to interact with SQL databases through Alpha Five.� - T. Cone, Jr. (Lutz, FL)
