Besides the booth I wanted to say that I got an Ubuntu talk accepted
that I'm excited to be giving on Sunday after lunch.  Here's the info
off the webpage:

Speaking Topic: 
The Ubuntu Desktop: Bling for Usability 

Abstract: 
As the power of modern computers increases we now have the ability to
adjust the human interactions to be more similar to the world around us.
By increasingly synchronizing the models of the real world inside the
computer with those outside it we remove more obstacles for adoption and
provide more opportunities for intuition to predict how things will
behave. While this provides the possibility to vastly increase the
usability of the computer desktop it also gives us the power to
significantly confuse users also. Some of these advances have been
realized in the Ubuntu Desktop, while others are still on the drawing
board. Ted will discuss the current state of the Ubuntu Desktop and
future directions to extend it.
