I will be going and gone to the past 4 or 5. The seminars are generaly well presented. If you are in the market for new equipment you can discuss with factory people rather than local distributors and might run into people who are current users for first hand feed back. The new products you read about in the mags you can to get first hand info and find distributors. There are always show specials for equipment and products. If you have the opportunity, go it's well worth while.
