I didn't think about the DVD - that's a good point and does make it more worthwhile.

Steve, I notice SSC will be in force at the Connections in Vegas, is there a large difference between Connections and Summit besides the size? If I only got to pick one, it would seem that I should always pick the Summit becuase there is a greater variety of SQL events, unless the small cost differences made a concern (hotel/flight, the Connections seems to be more expensive)? It looks like at least some of the classes are the same.

Thank you all for your responses, this really does help quite a bit.
