	For those who do not have the opportunity to go to InterOp, regional
	shows and vendor evaluator units are the only way to look at and 
	play with the new toys.  Since I cannot encumber funds, evaluators
	might not be appropriate for me to look at.  This leaves regional
	shows (sigh).  Are there any shows in the midwest (chicago ?) that
	specialize in such high speed networking?  

	Even if my boss would not be willing to pay for it, I would be 
	willing to fly there to see the show if there were something close.
