I just realize that the registration fee for Eurographics'91
is about US$600-, if one wishes to attend a tutorial or two the
cost goes up to about US$900-US$1000! What surprises me is that 
there is no special rate for students. How can the European students 
afford this?

Europe (or Vienna) must be a really expensive place.  Consider the 
student registration fee for SIGGRAPH (Las Vegas) is US$130-, 
for Graphics Interface (Calgary) is about US$80-, and for 
Computer Graphics International (Boston) is US$180-.  
With the more expensive traveling cost (I mean from the US)
I was hoping the registration fee for the conference will be 
lower so that I will be able to afford it. 

Well, guess I have to starve for a couple of month or so to attend
the Eurographics ... and this is the really awful part .. this will be
my first (and, hopfully not, but, probably only) visit to Vienna and
I will not be able to afford to do much while I am there!
