I know everyone is talking about WWDC right now, but looking ahead to next month's MacWorldExpo (or whatever it's called now)... The expo site only lists 91 booths as being sold.

Last year's pre-show July 9 Press Release said 250 exhibitors were attending. I know they'll sell a few at the last minute, but they're only at 30% now.

I suspect all the rename and Apple-fighting games are the cause. I know they're "re-branding" it to try to get attendees to fork over $$$ for the conferences. But the exhibits are the real draw for most people. I'm still planning to go, but I might get bored fast.

I just hope I'm wrong. Wouldn't it be a bummer to have the worst Expo ever just three weeks after 10.3 and the G5 are introduced?
