Before we blame Cambridge Marketing for the increase of Macs
at Applefest, let's all remember one thing.

It was NOT their doing. They were ORDERED to include macs and Mac
related presentations in the seminar rooms by APPLE. They were told
by Apple, that they had to increase to the amount of Macs at
each show because Apple was going to do the same at their
display area. These quotes were made to me before the Boston
'fest this year by the Vice President of Cambridge. In fact he told
me that Cambridge fought with Apple and eliminated some of the Mac
related seminars that Apple wanted at the Boston show..

That move chased several major vendors away from the show, and in the
long run cost Cambridge money.. and they like to make money just like the
next guy..
