Kevin noticed something I have had a problem with for years, security at most trade shows is weak.

On the plus side, they are usually pretty good about catching you leaving with hardware before the end of the show. But then again ask yourself what is at risk. A bit of hardware. No trade secrets, after all we are trying to sell this stuff. When I look at the setup for our trade show booth, the hardware is only about $10,000. There is far more invested in preparing the materials and following-up the leads generated by the show.

I would like to see better security at the shows, but I don't let it bother me for the small value involved.
