2012 Conference Kudos.


Thank you and your team of workers for a great conference. The smaller atmosphere was better. I met so many more people this year.

Another successful SW Computer Conference is over and I'm already looking forward to next years’ edition. Thanks to the tireless effort of many people for again making this, the 19th meeting of the Southwest Computer Conference, a success. My personal, sincere thanks to Judy Taylour for her tireless efforts in helping everyone who attended (that includes me). Her tireless efforts will ensure that many more of these worthwhile, informative and educational Conferences will be held in the future. I hope to see all of you again next year for the 20th meeting of the Southwest Computer Conference.

Thanks so much for letting SCALE participate in SWCC 2012!  We had a great time, met a bunch of nice folks, and probably hopelessly confused at least some of them. We did between 10 and 12 Linux installs or upgrades. I expect we'll be back next year. Congratulations on a job well done!

2012 Southwest Technology & Computer Conference
Enhance Your Life with Technology
June 22 – 24, 2012

Another successful Southwest Computer Conference was held June 3 – 5, 2011 at the Town and Country Resort & Conference Center in San Diego, with over 200 attendees. The conference started 18 years ago with 35 attendees – and many of them haven’t missed a year as well as one sponsor, Gene and Linda Barlow (User Group Relations). The Microsoft Store tours were one of the highlights of the conference. Interest in the Windows phone was high and many planned on getting one when their current contract expires. This was a banner year for the number of sponsors who expressed interest in making presentations to user groups…either in person or as webinars.

Are you an early adopter of what’s new in technology or are you someone who is satisfied with what you are currently using. SW has something for all levels of experience whether it is the latest gadget or tips and tricks for using your favorite application.

What’s new for 2012?
• New date: June 22 - 24, 2012
• Lower hotel rate: $99.00
• On line registration and pay by PayPal as well as check. For those who want to mail their registration, you will still be able to do that with the fillable PDF form.
• Same registration fees ($100.00 / $75.00 early bird fee)
• Moving to the Regency Conference Center, a more casual setting
• A block of sleeping rooms has been reserved in the Regency Tower and Garden Rooms
• Mini hands-on bring-your-own-laptop sessions
• The Hospitality Suite is next to one of the swimming pools…we’ll be able to relax and meet & greet pool-side. Don’t forget to bring your bathing suit.

SW will again be hosting tours of the San Diego Microsoft Store on Thursday, June 21, 2012. This is the third year that a member of the Store team has presented at SW and he is already working on the presentation for the tours as well as their breakout session. Look for lots of information about Windows 8 and all things touch that make your computing experience easier and really fun.
