the shirts aren't really worth anything (at least not to most as they would never buy them in the first place)
The rest - wow.. how did you walk out with two things from Logitech?
I'm guessing you were outside the norm on the stuff you acquired.
The two Logitech devices I was just given by Micro something or other. They had a race and I showed up at the convention center at 6:30AM before anyone else was there. The vendor was setting up, I did the race, and he was kind to me for being the first Spicehead to do the race (plug in some RAM and an SSD to the motherboard). Most didn't get that. I was just in the right place at the right time.

The Plantronics Backbeat GO 2 I was just given because they liked me, and the RIG I was given for participating in their LoL contest. You used it in the contest and at the end you got to keep it. It was sweet! I also got to do that because they liked me.

As far as the t-shirts go, yeah. Maybe you'd never buy them. But still, at an average of $15/shirt if you did, 13 t-shirts is a lot.

Yeah I did go home from there 2 years ago with something like 15 shirts.. I have more chore shirts than I know what to do with now.

Cappuccino and news, starting off the day.
Speaking of news I will NOT be at SW this year, say hi to the other Monkeys for me!
Will do. Sorry that we won't be seeing you. Maybe the next ML event!!
Of course, show some love to the Houston peeps; or a short drive to Dallas either way.
You should have come on your own! Damn the torpedos! Full speed ahead!
Haha I was thinking about it, but I only do IT on the side (home/test stuff) so everyone would be like "Whyyyy is Matt (purchasing) following us to the IT conference"?
So come as an IT Pro and not as a GG. You'll make your money back (not now but six months ago) on the ticket price in swag, easily!
What do you mean? I've never gotten more than a few dollars worth of swag. Some years it's not worth anything. Just knock knacks to throw out.

13 t-shirts are hardly worth any amount of money. Not to normal people. Thats not a reasonable value on them. That's why so many people don't even pick them up. If they were worth even $5 everyone would.

@scottalanmiller raid 5 go boom. raid controller go boom. pulled a server from my lab, got a VM spun up and now Backup Assist + Imation RDX USB + VM = restore isn't working. going on site tomorrow to see what's goin on. Backup Assist doesn't offer weekend support.....(this is a new acquisition client). Backup starts, snapshot success, but as soon as the restore starts it just doesn't progress, doesn't lock up, you can cancel the job, but it never restores anything. Doesn't matter if i pick a single small folder/file or 50 gigs of data....

Your basically being free marketing/advertising for a company so it's dirt cheap. Not to mention who would pay to wear advertising for a company?
The shirts costs to make, and I know from experience it can cost between $20-$30 per shirt for a short run (under 1,000) but they have no real actual value.

I usually like when things go BOOM. But I don't think I'd like a raid doing that.
