Why do or don't you visit MSX fairs?

More than 2 years have passed since we talked about the do's and don'ts of visiting MSX fairs. This weekend the second MSX Devcon will be held in the Netherlands, while the MSXRio Fair will take place in Rio, Brazil. Throughout the past few years there seems to be a slight increase in both the amount of standholders and visitors on MSX fairs in the Netherlands. Take the MSX Fair in Oss 2004, for example, which was a lot more crowded than it ever has been. Also for the upcoming MSX fair in Bussum things are looking very bright.

So how do you feel about MSX fairs Anno 2004? What makes an MSX fair succesful to you? What would you like to see happening or change at MSX fairs?
