i'm in boston too - and it will be great to be able to forgo the hotel costs to attend... but i have to admit that:
1. traffic in boston sucks
2. restaurants in boston versus nyc suck
3. the big dig is an abberation to mankind
4. nyc subway is a million times better than boston's system
5. the convention center in boston isn't near very much
6. nyc has a MUCH better nightlife
7. logan airport sucks compared to nyc airports
8. many more landmarks to visit in nyc
i'll jump on the T and attend MW in boston when it's here... but i liked going to the javits for MW. i'll save some money but it won't be quite the same for a lot of others coming in from other cities.
just really happy MW SF isn't moving anywhere - that's the ticket

i didn't like how it was split in half (2 sides of the street) but it rocked.
