SuSE Linux Day 2005

It was kind of boring, but I'm happy that I attended the SuSE Linux Day seminar sponsored by Dataworld, IBM, and Novell yesterday. The highlight for me was my winning a t-shirt that says, "Ruby Geek" for correctly answering a question on Ruby programming. At first, I was reluctant to answer because the speaker is from the same company as me. I was afraid that those who knew this fact would misconstrue it as unfair. I knew the speaker, but believe me I have never seen a line of Ruby code prior to that presentation. So I was reluctant to answer at first. But participant after participant answered incorrectly until nobody was raising his or her hand anymore. And so I raised my hand and got to answer. I deserved that shirt. :-)
