 The audience was generally very receptive and friendly. There were only about 7 vendor exhibits, we looked sleek and professional and had a steady 2-4 people at the table for most of the time. We had a nice range of Professors, graduate, undergraduate, and grade school educators. Some community college but mostly CSU (Cal State University) and a few others.
-While we had 3-4 laptops up and running apps and browsing the web aside from demonstrating features to some people most of this crowd just wanted to talk about what FOSS is, who was paying us, and what applied to their work. Some people were so excited we loaded copies of the flyers onto their flash sticks on the spot.

Some people were so excited we loaded copies of the flyers onto their flash sticks on the spot. It really helped to put out some signs saying "Free Geography/GIS Software" as our professional look had people perplexed at this particular event.
 We gave out about 140 business cards with the major project names(Almost all of the 150 we made), the OsGeo slogan and website. About 40-50 QGIS flyers, 20-30 of Grass, OpenLayers, Education, GeoData, OSSIM and a few of everything else.
