Final Thoughts from On Demand '08

Our 45 attendees at Print Buyer Boot Camp!(tm) on the last day of the show reminded me how the modern print buyer wants to and needs to see the equipment that's being used to produce their materials. Almost every attendee took advantage of the mini-tour that I led in the Exhibit Hall before our program began. They could have easily passed this up. Their participation confirmed the interest level of print customers in the technology that drives their print materials!

-----------------------------------------

I thought the show seemed quieter than previous ones. I was there all day
Tuesday and Wednesday. The advantage was that I was un-rushed when speaking
with exhibitors. I didn't see anything really new or exciting--perhaps
everybody's holding back for drupa. I noticed a lot of vendors offering UV
coaters--they seemed very popular. I was also able to speak with some
current suppliers and have issues addressed.

All-in-all, it was a good show for me personally, but I'm really looking
forward to drupa.
