I disagree.  Uniforum is certainly bigger, but most of the
major vendors are at both shows, with exactly the same
booths.  If someone is looking for info, it is a reasonable
place to start.

Given both shows at about the same time and place, I would
choose Uniforum, but if NY in October is more convenient,
UNIX Expo wouldn't be a waste of time.
