Comments

[edit]

I removed some information about Spring COMDEX alternation between Atlanta and Chicago in the 90s. The article incorrectly stated that the show was in Chicago two years in a row due to preparations for the 1996 Olympics. In fact, it was in Atlanta in '93, '94, '95 and '97. It was only the 1996 show that was moved due to the Olympics. Merenta (talk) 23:59, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keynote Addresses

[edit]

Torvald's address in spring '99 was actually the keynote to Linux Global Summit, one of several tradeshows that were colocated with Comdex, although technically seperate shows (Windows World was another colocated show). http://www.reviewsonline.com/SC99KEY1.htm Merenta (talk) 21:23, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Editions, dates and locations

[edit]

The Italian Wikipedia has a table of all COMDEX editions including dates and locations. I found that this table had numerous errors and was missing several editions of COMDEX, so I created a new table with those errors fixed.

I'm managing all the sources here. Almost every date and location is backed by a source, the rest are based on the Italian page. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15wShSyi3sPLWW2AyekvnJ3yEgXwQZIr7A7yrBWr2ZR4/edit?usp=sharing

The following table is a preview of how the table could look. Could also possibly include links to the official website (via archive.org), where applicable.

Since I am inexperienced on Wikipedia, I'd appreciate input.
