If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all... right? Well that being one extreme, I'll take a more balanced approach and not write all of what I was so tempted to while I suffered sitting through this "event" (so loosely defined!).
Painful, bordering on disrespectful to the attendees time, sometimes crossing the line. The presenter, while a nice gentleman, should have been, shall we say, better prepared; once again I am using the extreme definition there because I am convinced this person never even looked at the material before in his life. He read from the printout of a "Lab Material", and read and read and read... read the slides, read the CODE!!!, the signature of the tool generated event handler's for controls... yes
"and here we see object sender (comma) KeyEventArgs e"
...and I am not making this up!
The totally best part of the day was the end of the presentation, not only because the pain finally went away but also because I won a copy of Office Professional 2007.
I have to believe in miracles and in the kind and compassionate hand of God here, to know how (literally) I was so close to losing it he devised a way to bring my blood pressure down by rewarding me with the cool "swag".
