A minor digression: the apples/laptops ratio is stunningly high. I had to look carefully to check that speakers had not just shared the same Mac.

I was there with my Zenbook (running Arch). A few guys with macs made comments about it, “ahh, I see you've got the Macbook Air ripoff.” in a condescending tone.

A witty retort eluded me, so I said "Yup." like a plank.

Yup. At the last two DjangoCons in the US, if you got up on stage you basically had a sea of glowing Apple logos staring back at you.

I found that at previous PyCon US that I attended, Macbooks made up about 75-80% of the laptops. I imagine its pretty similar at Rails conferences.

A simple way to download the vids https://gist.github.com/2929272

We're exploring ways to offer proper downloads.

Bittorrent is probably one of the best methods for this kind of thing.

Is anyone going to the DC DjangoCon in September (I think)?

I'm excited to attend my first one.

Any of the videos you guys recommend?
